Its all a matter of what the game requires.

RPGs are less subject to lag then a critcal intensive game like Q3 would be. While bandwidth required is purely speculative (nobody has any hard numbers) I think one can draw a conclusion that a RPG would run ok on a bad ping time compared to a racing game, fighting game, or FPS on the same ping.

I was wrong, I will admit it, I am not too experienced in online gaming other than the occasional Anarchy Online or old game of Quake, etc.

I would say that there are plenty of people in N.A. for me to play.  And plenty in Europe for them to play.  There\'s no reason to playa cross the pond.
