The fine attention to detail as well as the commitment to creating an enjoyable gameplay experience (and following through on both of those points) has become the publisher's pedigree for success, and I hope a deal is struck with Sony to produce a sequel." IGN Wireless (rated 9 out of 10) "Like JAMDAT's DOOM RPG, SOCOM: US Navy SEALs Mobile Recon feels more like a video game that you just happen to play on a cellphone rather than a video game you can just tell was crammed on to a handset. Don't miss this one."
