SOCOM fans will get to shoot up their friends on the PS3 this fall as Confrontation will be released September 16, reported by 1up.

To go along with the game, Sony is launching SOCOM.com to give the community information on the game and a place to gather and start flame wars. Because what else are community sites for, really?

I’m pretty excited for this one. One of the first online games that I spent a ton of time with was SOCOM on the PS2. I got fairly good at the game, but never really got into any of the sequels. I have high hopes for the PS3 version.
