Hi, Allan. Yeah, allot depends on style of game. I can see allot of two player games being popular with a internet and AI play like chess for example. I could email you and say "hey, Allan. I am off on saturday and am free all day. You want to play chess?" You could email back and say yeah, I'll be on at 3. I could start the server, mail you my, ip and at 3 you and I would be facing off in chess. Perhaps chatting with msn or aim on the side. Games like top speed do have internet play, and one problem I noticed with it is people have to post somewhere that they are on with a server, connect here at time x, and play. That is kind of a hastle and one reason I haven't yet done it yet.
