dialup is perfectly fine for most online gaming, strange ppl think otherwise

of course...I would say this is about it for 56k...after this year noone seems to want to optimize their code so you'll have massive amounts of data back and forth for no reason
mmo's are ok with 56k...shooters not so much. But it wasn't bad during the days of quake even up to II I believe.
mmos I played with dialup
asheron's call
lineage II
almost all the gpotato ones

silkroad
city of heroes
9 dragons
2 moons
corum
of course the occasional spikes typically mean the death of many a 56k gamer
I couldn't really play the new game Tabula Rasa...that was lag heaven
