Yep i do, especially when they are the leading scorer of the opposing team, If you can't afford good internet, how can you afford a $400 Gaming console and $60+ games?

  • So then get the relative to gift decent internet.. If parent's can't afford internet then why spend $60 on an ONLINE game? and i don't believe that you 'can't get decent internet' unless you're in the outback or deep in the Amazon (for e.g.) not relevant in this scenario wtf has a storm got to do with anything. my world my life and my luck are completely in my control, although luck has nothing to do with anything Hence me having a shit hot internet connection and gaming console because I chose them I am being Human

  • £30 a month for 120MB cable, which = to £360, so in American money that's, but hang on Bungie doesn't do conversion does it? so it's $360 anyway in the real world it's $560 so for $400 yes you CAN get decent internet

  • 20MB should be more than adequate. do you play wired or WI-FI? In any case, I would expect to be paired with teams from my own location, not half way around the world

    I've gotten in matches with Europeans and sometimes there's lag. Now I know it probably on my end cause you guys all seem to have faster internet speeds. Sometimes on wifi when I have to play in my bedroom when the wife watches tv in the living room. Other times I'm wired with little to no issues. But on wifi I get dropped more times, I just deal with it. Just saying man don't be so quick to report unless you can tell it's cheating which in my experience is blatantly obvious.

  • Yeah the only real problem I've had with virgin was broadband don't really watch a lot of tv so the only extras i get are sports so it isn't too much each month. If that ever goes up ill try and get something though, maybe try and grab the movies cheap
