Interestingly, it seems that we will finally see our first glimpse at Age of Empires 2: Age of Kings on the PlayStation 2 hardware that was announced ages ago at the Tokyo Game Show. What makes it so intriguing, though, is that Konami claims they will have it set up to demonstrate the online abilities of the PlayStation 2, which would seem to indicate that Sony may be ready to make some strong announcements at the show.

I hope I can use my cable for PS2. Otherwise, perhaps piggyback it through my computer. I think Dreamcast can do that.

Really, could you point me to a site that shows how to do this?  I haven\'t played online with my DC since I got broadband and don\'t want to buy the BBA for only a couple of games.
