I have had lag in Call of Duty 5 and 6, and know of others who have lag as well.

Killzone 2 on the other hand runs like the single player.

oh well my friends had lag in killzone i mean different person different experiences i suppose. Im saying you really cant say its an overall bad online experience because its more good than bad lag wise same for killzone.

Another obvious advantage for dedicated servers: When the community is small, for eg killzone 2, you can actually get a lagless game. The same is not true for any P2P game out there, and Halo and CoD are exception even though they are popular they have lag, although Halo doesn't lag that much.

A game like rainbow six vegas is unplayable for me, even though it has a small respectable community, it lags like sh*t.

Rainbow Six Vegas uses dedicated servers. Bungie is better at their netcoding then other developers and thats why it runs almost lag free.

It doesn't. It has a facility that makes you the dedicated server, and you would have to be just a spectator. But that is still not a true dedicated server, and the normal game is p2p.

This just destroys the host advantage, but the lag is still very much there.
