3G + online multiplayer = bust?

Galaki, I should smack you. Nobody thinks that 3G is good enough for online play unless it's for some board game like checkers or some card game like poker. The disconnects are insane, too.

I seem to recal seeing plenty of poeple who went bonkers over the Vita being 3G, becuase they all thought millions of people would now be playing Call of Duty online ANYWHERE now.

So there are plenty of dillusional people out there.  And don't try and tell them differently, they won't listen. They will need to see for themselves how slow 3G is and how its completely unreasonable for any type of "real" game and not just checkers or words with friends.

Most people are interested in the wi-fi version. 3G is seldomly mention in its official thread and Sony's forum.

Yea I sure hope most are interested in wi-fi version.  I mean who doesn't have a phone with them that could do whatever you wanted your 3G to do.  Not to mention lots of phones can be a wireless accessport, so if you can only check something on your vita and not phone, just do it that way.

 

BUT as I said in another thread, you will be surprised at how FEW wi-fi areas there are.  The only places I know that have wi-fi that I can hook up to with my 3DS or ipod touch or laptop is at HOME, a friends house (after I get password), and barnes and noble.  Even places like a school campus only let you sink up with a normal laptop it seems.  Can never do anything with my 3ds or touch on campus.
