Just about every successful online game has had problems during the launch period. This is because server load is so different than the long term average. If they are still having problems a week from now, then I'd be worried. |
No, most companies know what they are doing now. |
Every major update to WoW has server issues upon release. It's the most successful game of all time. It's the same with every other successful online game. If anyone expects to play Halo 3 online release week without problems, they are delusional. |
This is not WoW or Halo. Halo uses hosts anyway, which is bad enough. |
Oh, I agree with that. I'm also not arguing with the fact that Nintendo is notoriously behind on Online Gaming. However, the idea I was going for is this: Halo, WoW and Wii are all similar in that they are overwhelmingly and outstandingly popular. Blizzard admitted when WoW came out that they weren't prepared for just how many people were interested in their game; Nintendo has said basically the same thing about the Wii.
