» I want

some in-game music for this game... Its way too quiet in my opinion. I guess trophies is a good start though. I noticed theres a huge lack of in-game music, especially in shooters. The only shooter that has it at the moment is Warhawk I believe. I don't see why these close to the chest type of games that have been coming out lately don't include this stuff from the start.

If you have music in a shooting game, then how are you suppose to hear those who are sneaking up behind you. If you want music, why don't you just turn on the radio or use an Ipod.

Well in Socom the sound really doesn't help at all. It'll sound like someone is shooting from across the map and they'll be right behind a wall or something. So if I'm going to get shot in my back it really doesn't matter cause it'll happen anyways. Oh and I usually listen to instrumentals so it wont get me too distracted.



Now I wouldn't use an iPod because I don't want something stuck in my ear. I wouldn't use my radio because its poor quality and usually plays music I don't wanna listen to. My sound system for my ps3 sounds great and I'd rather use that.



Don't see why people wouldn't want it as an option. Some will find a use for it and some won't, thats how it is.
