Euro SOCOM PS3 pushed to "early 2009"
Definitely not out here tomorrow.
Sony has told us that SOCOM: Confrontation will not be out this Friday in Europe, as some retailers are still suggesting.
Instead, a spokesperson told us the online tactical PS3 shooter will arrive in "early 2009". No reason was given for the delay.
SOCOM: Confrontation has been out in America - where little mice go to make their fortunes - for a while.
So you can always buy from the US PlayStation Store by faking your address and purchasing pre-paid PSN cards from eBay. Or so we've heard.
However, the UK retail version will come bundled with a Bluetooth headset, which is quite important for this sort of squad-based stuff, apparently.
Plus, there are also suggestions that the US version may be clogged with a few bugs; something that might be fixed in the transition to Europe.
Head over to our SOCOM: Confrontation gamepage to find out more.
