Ghost Recon 2 didnt work good on ps2 though, so do you really think it will be sorted? Hopefully it will, but personally I prefer Socom to Ghost.

It's dead before it gets off the ground. Seen the Ghost Recon 3 movies yet?
There are 3 multiplayer SOCOM 3 videos currently on IGN, the first and third just highlight hit-detection (53 bullets fired, 1 dead terrorist) and weapons balance (M60E3 getting loads of kills) issues.
My major concern is if they can't get it right in 16-player how good/bad is 32-player going to end up? Fingers crossed for a miracle but going from previous experience it's not going to happen.

My major concern is if they can't get it right in 16-player how good/bad is 32-player going to end up? Fingers crossed for a miracle but going from previous experience it's not going to happen.
