I came stealthily in here to make sure SOCOM was a poll option, voted for it, and then extracted.

No one saw a thing 🪖

None of them, but if I was forced to pick it's Killzone. I think the setting and lore is just sufficiently unique and yet familiar to cod.

Not done by Guerilla though, let them stick with Horizon and find another dev that's good at shooters to do it.

Neither?

This comparison always seems to forget that COD is what it is due to the cash it brings in. It is a juggernaut, plain and simple. Quality is subjective, but they usually deliver on thier top spot.

Saleswise? Sony could make a new one for all 3 and it would still sell maybe half of what COD makes.

Bring back Resistance !

But something gritty like Fall of Man. It had the best vibes of the series.

I voted Resistance.

But the idea that any of these, or any other game series, could compete with Call of Duty is absurd. They're not going to sell 15+ million units a year + DLC + a successful F2P offering.

Whenever Sony says they need COD I just think of SOCOM. They had the big console military shooter before it was a thing and during its rise so that one first. Second and to a lesser extent with stuff like PUBG, MAG. They could create a new iteration of SOCOM with some Unit 13 story mode and it would do well.

When Sony says they need Call of Duty, they aren't saying they need a military shooter. They're saying they need a game that can sell minimum of 15 million copies a year.

SOCOM isn't going to come anywhere close to that.

They should remake Resistance 1 and remaster the rest (include mp with the coop from 2). I always liked the concept of those games but never really cared for the execution of them.

Runner up I'd say bring back Socom. I'm not really into military shooter games, but I enjoyed my time with bits and parts of the super flawed Socom 4. I thought it was cool that you could give your squad orders in story mode, but they were unfortunately dumb as bricks on the harder difficulty. I also enjoyed the stealthy missions more than the core shooting ones.

Probably Killzone as I feel it's sufficiently different in feel from other FPS' that it'd be a genuine alternative.

Resistance had the coolest premise but it was limited by the trends of the time, so I voted that

They'd be stupid to revive any of them but it says a lot that the best one is currently polling last.
