Any MAers have SOCOM - US Navy Seals?
Just got this game yesterday for my PS2 and it's pretty cool. Using the PS2 controller instead of a mouse & keyboard takes some getting used to, and the built in voice communicaiton is neat. Any other clanners play this online?

Does Xbox count.
I got Unreal Champ and MechAssult for the Xbox. I'm going to get Xbox Live in the next couple days.

Hey Alt, can you even get a network adapter for it? Out here there isnt any. Always sold out constantly. Ive never even seen a marking on a store shelf. I'd get SOCOM if it wasnt broadband only. Tho I hear there have been some problems keeping it broadband only. In the last OPSM they noted that a bunch of 56k ppl are playing it thru some hack or loop hole in the network that allows dialup connection play.

I have a network adapter that I can't use. The bandwidth limiter that my school puts on us ALSO interferes with that...and WarCraft3...and IRC....blah.
I don't have SOCOM, but I do try and play MAdden 03 online when it gets good ping. Do you have that game?

I had to preorder the Network Adapter at my local GameSpot. Wasn't too bad since the store was across the street from my old apartment. It was sold out everywhere else I looked.
I've heard about the hacks for running SOCOM off a dialup connection, mostly involves running some sort of NAT router on your PC. Since the connection is through the Ethernet port, the PS2 thinks it's on broadband.
Groid, I think Madden is going to be my next PS2 purchase. I only have the demo that comes with the adpater right now. If I get the game I'll let you know my screen name.
