I think SOCOM 3 is better because it proves that you have to try to be stealthy and try to take out your enemy without your enemy knowing that you are there. It also has the real names of the guns instead of fake gun name like resident evil 4 does. If you dont believe that then go to www.google.com and put the name of the gun and it will show what the real gun will look like. On resident evil 4, when you put the gun name it will show the picture of the gun cut out from resident evil 4 and not what the real gun looks like.
