Bandwidth Usage for Online gaming...

[TheBossMan]

Hi I recently had ADSL installed.

Could someone please help me with this one....

How much bandwidth does online gaming use???? I don't want to start playing for a while to find out that my whole cap is finished..

totally depends on the game... FPS like BF2 and BF2142 eat bandwidth (25-75mb an hour) but rpgs like guildwars or wow hardly use any (10mb per hour if that).

Thnx man....

That's not to bad... Will most likely play for about a hour or two daily max.

A want to try America's Army which I got on the NAG DVD last month (Feb 2007 edition)

Thanks again. I will also get myself a copy of Guild Wars seems to be a very cool game...

Cheers

ye as Scooby sed, FPS games can use quite a bit, americas army im not to sure about. I suggest WoW(World of warcraft) instead of guild wars ;p only thing is you need to pay for monthly game time, but its worth it! that only uses about a meg an hour which is nothing.
