I thought I'd post up a list of broadband-only games that I think would work best for those dial-up people that ICS, like I do now. This kind of branches out from mir_wan's ICS and the games, for ppl who want to use. topic from a while back, in a sense. This list is composed of broadband-only games that I own, not bb-and-dial-up compatible online games (unless limits were imposed for those on dial-up).
Best-Running ICS games (IMO) 1. Auto Modellista 2. Twisted Metal:Black ONLINE 3. XIII 4. Warhammer 40,000: Fire Warrior 5. Rainbow Six 3 All of the above run great over ICS, but Auto Modellista, in my opinion, is the best one out of the bunch. Races go perfectly no matter how many players are in the game, and no lag is apparent (like if cars suddenly reappear ahead of you or something). Auto Modellista must have been optimized really well to work this well for dial-up, despite it being a broadband-only game. Twisted Metal:Black ONLINE is my second choice, since full 8-player games with no lag are possible. Goodbye, 2-player dial-up limit! XIII, Fire Warrior and Rainbow Six 3 all work great as well, but there is a very minor amount of lag in each that doesn't jepordize the gameplay or anything. No big deal, and voice chat doesn't even have too many hitches in Rainbow Six 3. |

I haven't tried NBA Ballers, but James Bond 007: EoN did not work so well over ICS. I couldn't connect to a peer, who had a headset enabled (mine wasn't). I still have to test it some more, but I think that if both sides had no mic plugged in, then it would connect just fine (no dealing with VoIP bandwidth). | |||

Hmm, I've had trouble with ATV Offroad Fury 2 with just one other player...lots of hoppin' and skippin' along the terrain at times. Then again, that was when I went online with it a long time ago, so who knows how it is now.
Anyway, here's a slightly updated top "5" list, now including my recent successful Medal of Honor: Rising Sun OC game. 
Best-Running ICS games (IMO) 1. Auto Modellista 2. Twisted Metal:Black ONLINE 3. Medal of Honor: Rising Sun (no voice chat recommended w/ 3+ players) 3. XIII 4. Warhammer 40,000: Fire Warrior 5. Rainbow Six 3 |

Remember when everyone was in shock when Auto Modelista went down earlier this year and it turned out to be the Japanese version? This version of AM was dial-up compatiable. -Mytho |
