60% Some of my clanmates already moved back to COD4 because of all the problems and lag.

There are three things to know about how headset mics work in Confrontation. 1 – Open chat, always-on audio pickup is only used for the party system. If I join up with my friends via the party system, I can talk to them all of the time without doing anything. 2 – Team chat, to the members of your team within a game is activated by Push To Talk. I hold the button, the members of my team hear it. This is true even if I am in a party. 3 – My voice propagates into the game world around my character. What this means is that as in the real world, the noises I make can give away my position. I can radio my team mates or open-talk to my party at any time, but if the enemy is very close to me, they could overhear me talking into my mic. And yes, you can whisper into your mic and that could reduce the chance that the other team hears you. The sound propagation is realistic, so players don’t need to worry about being overheard from across the map. Another consideration is that the SOCOM headset is a very high-quality dual-microphone noise-cancelling headset and is unlikely to transmit background noise via the open mic feature.

Why wait, here's the album now: Track List 1. That Was Just Your Life 2. The End Of The Line 3. Broken, Beat & Scarred 4. The Day That Never Comes 5. All Nightmare Long 6. Cyanide 7. The Unforgiven III 8. The Judas Kiss 9. Suicide & Redemption 10. My Apocalypse http://rapidshare.com/files/142345199/metdmr-fjortiso.rar

Very Cool Video, Thanks man!!

Don LaFontaine, known as the "King of Voiceovers," died Monday afternoon at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. LaFontaine's agent, Vanessa Gilbert, tells ET that he passed away following complications from Pneumothorax, the presence of air or gas in the pleural cavity, the result of a collapsed lung. The official cause of death has not yet been released. Over the past 25 years, LaFontaine cemented his position as the "King of Voiceovers." Aside from being the preeminent voice in the movie trailer industry, Don also worked as the voice of Entertainment Tonight and The Insider, as well as for CBS, NBC, ABC, Fox and UPN, in addition to TNT, TBS and the Cartoon Network. By conservative estimates, he voiced hundreds of thousands of television and radio spots, including commercials for Chevrolet, Pontiac, Ford, Budweiser, McDonalds, Coke, and many other corporate sponsors. He recently parodied himself on a series of national television commercials for Geico. At last count, he has worked on nearly 5000 films, including appearances as the in-show announcer for the Screen Actors Guild and Academy Awards. Based on contracts signed, he has the distinction of being perhaps the single busiest actor in the history of SAG. Don is survived by his wife -- singer/actress Nita Whitaker, and three children: Christine, Skye and Elyse. To check out his website head on over to HERE!

Probably!! That would be sweet though. ;D

The official PS3 headset, which will be bundled with SOCOM Confrontation, really may be as high as $50 when it releases as a standalone product later this year. This would make the $60 SOCOM bundle an obvious deal, as it would give players both the headset and access to the online shooter for only $10 more than the headset alone. The headset, which will debut on October 30th in Japan, will cost 5000 yen (~$45.93). It is supposedly of a much higher quality than the headset included with Warhawk last year.

You could always play some Warhawk.
