How to Make a Long Clan Name on SOCOM: Combined Assault

"SOCOM: U.S. Navy SEALs Combined Assault" is a realistic third-person shooter developed by Zipper Interactive for the PlayStation 2. The "SOCOM" series' extensive multiplayer features have made it a favorite among competitive gamers. Players can also band together under "clan" banners and tackle missions together cooperatively. Clan members are denoted by the presence of a custom three digit "tag" next to their usernames. If you really want your clan to stand out from the crowd, there's a method for creating a tag of almost any length. This method requires the use of a "lag switch" device and some menu navigation trickery.
