Check out these quotes from reviews & previews
"The multiplayer is easily the best facet of the game, and is much better than it ever was. However, some of the problems with the still-weak single player missions limit this game from truly being great."
"Upgrades abound in this sequel, from the graphics to the weapons to the new burly ranking system. Unfortunately, that last one is a bit broken, and they still havent tightened up the controls enough."
"...the game looks a whole lot smoother. The player models have a much nicer look to them, and the environments benefit from improved lighting, bump-mapping, reflective textures, and better, more natural water effects. Even with these improvements in place, the frame rate appears to be smooth. The team is hiring higher-caliber voice actors for the in-game speech, which should make it sound a bit more realistic."
"With its solid single-player mode and numerous online additions and improvements, SOCOM II easily replaces SOCOM as the console's best online action game."
"Awesome multiplayer will always be what SOCOM's all about, with everything else coming secondary. Still, with better AI, slicker presentation and more attention to detail, SOCOM II seems to have made significant strides in its single player experience. The thousands of players who, for whatever reason, fail to venture online will definitely have a decent game to play through."
