Not our fault that the 360 version was immensely more popular than they had imagined. They were busy like crazy all day yesterday adding servers.

Stupid 3rd party servers...P2P FTW.

Its not like the game is doing 30 vs 30 battles...

Actually, P2P is why Gears 2 is broken as it is.

I don't plan on playing many more online games (if any at all) unless they have dedicated servers like PSN.

Most PSN games (at least multi-plats for sure) use P2P as well....

Only ones that use dedicated servers are Resistance, Killzone, and Socom that I can think of off hand.  But I do agree.  P2P kills Gears 2 because of the host advantage it gives.  Whenever I am host, I get some slight host advantage, but I have a good enough connection that everyone is nearly equal.  Unfortunately Gears of War 2 picks the worst possible hosts 90% of the time....

I thought just about all use dedicated servers. I know Warhawk did as well.
