| Hi,
I am getting broadband, and love the Formula 1 2004 PS2 game; consequently I
was thinking I would purchase the network adapter and play on-line against
everyone else.
Before I purchase though I would like to know what type of downloading
online gaming requires.
Does anyone know how much an average game uses of your download limit ? Or
how much a light to medium user would use a month.
Sony won't tell me !
Thanks for you assistance.

Sony can't really say as each game is different. More important than
download is actually the upload although it works both ways. You can get
away with having a lower download speed, but you cant really get away with a
lower upload - the games will suffer from lag (stuttering, poor framerates,
etc.)
I am a light user on xbox live and I monitored my gaming for about a week
and used about 10mb of traffic.
