Online Play still so laggy!!

I have not played online for months because of the laggy play.

So today I wanted to try online again once again I could not even play the game because of so much lag!

What is wrong with there severs?

I play Madden 08 on PC all the time online and the games run like butter.

This is just so f-ing sad.

I guess I just better face the facts that I wil never be able to enjoy MLB The Show online.

Are all PS3 games like this online?

Mike the lag issue online is so bad, I guess the people that have 10 meg of speed have no problems. I have 2 meg of speed and the lag is terrible, takes all the fun out of playing online Hop60

Re: Online Play still so laggy!!

Just talked to you in PM. I'm wondering if some of the online vets can chime in. Hop, wonder if it's because you use a wireless controller??? Guys, would that cause lag?

I know I played one of you and you had an IM thingy (pardon my lack of the correct jargon) hooked up to the PS3 and it caused the game to actually freeze. When it was disconnected we had a smooth game.

A wireless controller should not cause any problems but I would agree with you on the use of a keyboard adding to lag problems as it requires more online activity during gameplay.

Well I think that if you use a keyboard to type messages while playing a game, you are increasing the use of internet activity meaning less of your broadband speed will be designated to the game as it uses some to transfer the message from your keyboard to the other user's PS3.

A complete guess on my part by the way.

Re: Online Play still so laggy!!

Game with hoppy60 yesterday was lag..lag...more lag...then freeze in the 5th inning. I've heard some of you guys talk about 10meg connections. What is that, how do we get it?
