Whenever I go up against someone not from America I get ripped in half so hard its ridiculous (its especially bad from people who live in Mexico, Canada and United Kingdom)

I just need to understand how the hell you guys are so salty at online gaming.....whats your secret?

In Modern Warfare 2 and Gears 1 & 2, I'd guess it's mostly connection based.  That isn't to say there aren't some damn good players from other countries on these games, but I think it's easy to tell the difference.  When three shots from your shotgun in Gears, or multiple hit markers in MW2 don't put your opponent down, but a single blast from them kills you...well that isn't skill based.

When that isn't the case and the same #$@* kills you five times in a row...well then regardless of country, you got owned.  Sadly, I've been on both sides of that equation.
