SOCOM 4 and Syphon Filter 5 in production...maybe

CVG found out that PCB productions, a digital content creation company, has listed SOCOM 4 and Syphon Filter 5 for the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 2, respectively.

No word yet from Sony, but CVG did receive confirmation that Red Steel isn’t really coming to the 360, which is listed on the site. And PSU also notices that at the top of the list is “Call of Duty Six: Modern Warfare 2,” a title that may have been true at one point, but isn’t now, as it is just Modern Warfare 2. So the list is dated and these may be inaccuracies.

Still, PCB’s credits list is impressive, having done work on Prototype, BioShock, and many Tom Clancy games. We don’t know for sure what Syphon Filter 5 or SOCOM 4 means yet, but the evidence is nothing to sneeze at. We expect there will be more on this soon.

    tricky title...could've started the title with "Rumor:" but decided to add a "maybe" at the end lol. I was just going to say, "I thought it was a rumor!" Then I realized the trickery!!!

    @1 SOCOM: Confrontation Sucks, yes.  SOCOM certainly does not suck. 

    Syphon Filter needs some respect.  Gabe Logan has ruled the PSP, whoopin' even Metal Gear as far as gameplay goes.  It's time for Gabe to make it back to Home consoles.  What a great rumor.

    Why did slant six decide to model their menu system on something so ugly and broken as the PSP socom menu system. S***T the ancient greeks had friendlier menu systems. . .

    Yeah, the Godfather of PS2 online games sucks. You have no idea what you're saying, i suggest you keep your mouth shut. SOCOM Confrontation isn't a bright spot in the franchise, but don't judge the series because of bad game.

    Get a grip people, Socom Confrontation is a beast of a game!  Sure its had many problems and the menus are still pants but the gameplay is great.  If this franchise was put into the right hands it could be one of the best games ever!

    so syphon filter is a stealth title?? great never played a S.F game but will start with this.

    whats with PSU and all of the RUMORS all of a sudden? i want FACTS

  15. O_G_H

    • 2:19pm EDT - July 6th, 2009

    @12 Syphon Filter had some stealth missions in its storytelling, but it was not a stealth-focused game like MGS or Splinter Cell.  It was an "all-arounder".

    If Socom4 was in the making & was based on old Socom's ( with the FPS mode), then it would be a must buy for me. I sorely miss Socom gameplay and nothing to date in FPS mode has come close to competing with it.

    But due to all the disappointments I have had in the games this gen, I won't get my hope up. I'll wait & watch.

  17. DemonOfRazgriz07

    SOCOM 4 was probably what they called Confrontation before it was given a name. don't get your hopes up..

    Why I hate game sites. Let's make an announcement and end the statement with maybe. DUKE NUKEM FOREVER OTEN!!!!......maybe.

    • 2:56pm EDT - July 6th, 2009

    Socom 4 will be my fav game this gen im sure...

     

    syphon filter 5 will be cool i guess

     

    i want socom 4 and kingdom hearts 3

     

    only 2 games i want that have not been announced officialy

    /6 doesnt make socom games, confrontations was ment to hold fans over until socom 4 was made, /6 destroyed the game but will not be making socom 4.. so even though socom 4 plans to intergrate maps/ranks of confrontations there is still a chance that socom can regain its previous glory. If they do, it would be far better then mw/mw2  without a doubt

    I've been hoping to hear something about SOCOM 4.If Slant 6 is working on this title, well, idk. I'll have to wait for reviews.

     

    @    1.

    BOOOOOO!!! YOU SUCK!

  22. DigitalBeast

    • 3:35pm EDT - July 6th, 2009

     Don't forget that SOCOM Confrontation was not made by same team as the PS2 games. That said, you either dig the style, or you do not. Then again, SOCOM 4 may be quite a bit better. Or at least deeper...

  23. terminator12259

    • 3:46pm EDT - July 6th, 2009

    i hope Slant Six isnt making Socom 4, they are terrible. give the game back to Zipper maybe they can save the game

    Why kill splinter cell? the more the maryer or how you spel it. I wold like a COCOM with a singelplayer story that you kan Coop in. Keep the 3rd person weuv i like that insted of FPS, Get mor of av "real" feal to it. But rework som of the animations, tha sem like tos when thy run as thy ar now

  28. aarono_21

    • 4:58pm EDT - July 6th, 2009

    i would hope that socom would be like the old socom 2 not the socom lagation that they gave us and stef123 ps3 socom does suck but socom 2 was a really good game

    new syphon filter sounds good, but they need a better writer for the story. PSP one were awesome but horrible story.

    man i hope this is true

  32. lynux3

    • 7:08pm EDT - July 6th, 2009

    Looks like Sony Computer Entertainment may have contacted PCB Productions to ask them to remove SOCOM 4 and Syphon Filter 5 from their credits list. These are definitely likely in pre-production or currently in development since it was stated so on their credits list. Maybe next E3 unvieling?

  33. supamariobrotha

    • 8:12pm EDT - July 6th, 2009

    i've been saying this for weeks we really need a new syphon filter game.

    • 12:15am EDT - July 7th, 2009

    I love Socom. I play it everyday even though Socom:Confrontaion isn't the best one in the franchise (and no where near it) it's still a pretty good game overall. If Zipper are the guys behind Socom 4, then I know they'll do something to revive the series for sure. Can't wait

  38. SixEightSix18

    • 12:27am EDT - July 7th, 2009

    This could be nice. I want a Siphon Filter Game for the PS3. Also Socom 4 would be nice but not is Slant Six is making it.

  39. PSU_fail

    • 1:41am EDT - July 7th, 2009

    As big as Syphon Filter has been on all previous platforms, they wanna do it on PS2?  Just make a PS3 version and get it over with.

  40. XAversionX

    • 12:56pm EDT - July 7th, 2009

    If they bring SOCOM back to the days of SOCOM II - Ps3 sales will sky rocket.

    • 12:26am EDT - July 8th, 2009
