Yes MSN Gaming Zone.
I have never figured what'ping' meant, but It never slowed down while playing. Another thing, don't try playing against someone with a cable modem... They ran circles around me.
Example: We would type messages back and forth while playing..
Me: Your going to lose.
The other person: Good game , sorry you lost.
2 minutes later, it was over. The cable was fast enough, he could do something and by the time I saw it...too late.

Mine might be a piece of junk, someof the others here might know what is the best. I'm willing to replace mine.Originally posted by Mr Sleep:
