What a letdown. I finally got round to playing this over a broadband connection, and it was full of people shooting themselves, their team members, and generally being mongs. I'm surprised these people can turn on a PC, let alone install and find games over the Internet. Thank God there's no penalty for quitting servers, as I did plenty of that. I did manage to find the odd game that was worth playing, but they were on servers that played the same map again and again, so people were super l33t, and it got a bit boring.

Oh well, I've still got Vietcong, Unreal GOTY and Operation Flashpoint to try.

Download the WW2 mod, Red Orchestra, it's bloody amazing, very hard but excellent all the same. And free.

enemy territory is a fairly high bandwidth demanding game but it's not usually laggy unless you go on a server that can't handle the numbers, e.g. 40+. I like it because it basically forces teamwork.

It may be free etc, but it's the laggiest piece of crap I've ever played.

UT2K4 is the way to go. Bloody awesome.

yeh Halo is good for at least hosting because it doesn't have huge bandwidth demands.
