Is it worth picking up? Does it have a good fun factor?

The really funny thing in the game is proximty chat. That is if your close enough to the enemy you can hear what they say over the mic, so theres a few times when its 1v1 and hes camping I talk to him threw proximty chat if so funny. Another time I kept making sex noises into my mic and I kept hearing the guys no the other team saying what the fuck is that noise, who the hell is moaing. Its real funny.

I enjoy it. It's fun. I think once I get COD5 I'll still like socom better. I'm not that good tho. And I hate that you have to play a elimination game to make ti count as ranked. I like respawns lol
