SOCOM II downloadable maps finally coming



Time to go get a HDD.





As I'm sure everyone remembers by now, the promise of downloadable maps for SOCOM: U.S. Navy Seals II and the HDD was made quite some time ago; but after more than four months of nothing but silence, it seems that Sony is soon to make good on its original promise. At least, according to our super secret source it will.

Likely to be unveiled sometime next month, three brand new maps for SOCOM 2 will be primed and ready for download directly from within the game. Though the details of these maps are obviously shrouded in secrecy, they'll apparently be much bigger than any of the default areas that shipped with the game and bring some unusual surroundings not seen in the SOCOM series before.

Yeah, on Saturday, Butters was at my house playing SOCOM...

While looking for a game in the lobby... a message popped up saying they were going to perform maintenence...

Everyone in the game we joined was like "wtf... why they doing maintence midday saturday!?"


well.... 15 min later... the mass boot.


when we got back on like 20-30 min after that... a message popped up saying that "Downloadable Content is NOW AVAILABLE"


So apparently SOMETHING is out there...

It is more than the HDD, it allows you to store full games on your PS2.

ie: go to Blockbuster and rent the game and copy it onto the HDD. $6 vs $50. The only problem is that if you play online you need the original disk for DNAS. But games like GTA should work fine playing off the HDD.
