I was wondering if anybody who plays games on XBox live can share their experience with some of the newer cheap uncapped offerings from the likes of MWeb, Afrihost, etc. What is the latencies like when playing games hosted on servers overseas? Where overseas are you playing (US, UK)? Also indicate what speed account you have (384 Kb, 515 Kb, 4 Meg).

Hi.
MWEB Uncapped 384
Local latency is great. UK is good (+- 250ms - ie: two yellow bars on Modern Warfare). US is the same as when I used G-Connect (1 red bar
).
All in all... do it.
Oh yeah: I seem to find games faster now than when I had G-Connect. Dunno why.
Hope this helps.

I hope you speak out of experience, because I can't say I agree at all. My experience has been flawless, no matter what time of day. Have you actually tried it or do you think this stuff up?
