New Devil May Cry and SOCOM titles coming soon - Image 1At first glance, Devil May Cry and SOCOM seems to have no relation with each other. The first one is an action video game that was developed by Capcom, while the latter, on the other hand, is a third-person shooter from Zipper Interactive. From the genre to the developer - the two are not connected in anyway imaginable. Wrong.

Apparently, one reader from the gaming site PSP Extreme managed to get some details about the two video games, and according to the reader, Devil May Cry and a new version of SOCOM will be gracing our PlayStation Portable (PSP) units soon, plus SOCOM will also be appearing on the PlayStation 3 (PS3).

The reader claims that he is working for the retail chain Game Crazy and saw that Devil May Cry popped up in his company's PSP list. Furthermore, two new SOCOM titles have been listed as well: SOCOM Competition for the PS3 and SOCOM Tactics for PSP. As much as these sound great, Zipper and Capcom, or Sony for that matter, are yet to comment on these rumors.

We tried heading over to Game Crazy's online store, but found nothing that could confirm these titles. Meanwhile, We'll be on the look out for more updates about these games in the coming days.

Socom: competition - now either thats an online focused game or the articles fake because that has to be the lamest name ever.

SOCOM rocks!!! One of the best an finest game online out there. I been waiting for a game I like to be released on PS3. DMC will be a great game on PSP especially if it’s a whole new story and not a chopped up version of the original.

mate thats coz of the ps2 servers. ps3 servers r much better. no lag or cheat so far
the ps3 servers r nothink like the ps2 servers.
ps2 server + cheats and lag
ps3 server + no lag and no cheats

you obviously haven't played resistance online. sure, the lag is a lot less noticable than on the ps2(even though the occasional lagger can be seen jumping across the screen), but there are loads of cheats.

 » I hope this is true.

I do know that the DMC game for the PSP is real check out Gamespot and they have a listing for it but not much info. As for the other two games. IGN had a listing for a Socom game on the PS3. Plus Socom really would be one great game on the PS3.

 » DMC announcement...

Why is anyone acting so surprised about Devil May Cry PSP? Capcom already OFFICIALLY announced it back in 2004 (just look at IGN for news for it). Of course they've been so quiet about it that you could've thought if they even worked on the game anymore. Still, if this is true it seems like Capcom might finally be going to show something from the game. Maybe it'll be one of those "revealments" Capcom will supposedly have at their Gamer's Day (whenever it's held)

 » Socom Tactics....Verified....

I owned the domain name www.socomtactics.com, about a month ago I was contacted and the domain name was purchased from me for a rather large sum of money via a private buyer. I can safely say they title is at least guaranteed to be a 100% real game. They have not however relinked the domain to their site and still directs to my old domain.

 » Hmm..

Someone at PSU posted about SOCOM: Competition...it was deemed fake, but then again, it was for GameStop, and not Game Crazy...

Since it's two different stores...who knows...
