Local radioshack is holding the "one" they got for me! Yeehah. No preorder or anything.
 
 I´ll chime in after I play. Still haven´t decided which game to get to go along with it.

Congrats James <IMG SRC="images/forum/icons/icon_smile.gif">
 
 Make sure you give us a heads up on what you had to go through (configuration-wise) to get that baby up and runnin´
 
 Oh, and will you be playing on broadband or 56k?

If you guys get Madden, let me know.
 
 I just played the best multi-player game ever! I will be remembering it for a long time. I took a 10-0 lead as Steelers vs. Jets. I played a lot of cover 2 in the first half, but he made some very good adjustments. He stormed back for a 14-10 lead and I went on "the drive" with 1:45 remaining (of course, that much time is like 4 minutes in "real" football"). 3rd and goal from the 7 and he sacks me. I burn my last TO with 7 seconds left. On the final play I throw about a 15 yard to a WIDE OPEN Burress in the end zone, but the throw is very low. Burress cradles it for the TD!
 
 My wife: "What the hell is going on down there?"
 
 Me: "da da naaaa naaaaa...HEY!!"

Leeb:
 
 Classic story! Know the feeling about a wife not understanding your joy over winning a video game.
 
 My wife just scratches her head and laughs ...
 
 Take care,
 PK

Hey leebo. Saw you on there last night. Should have challenged you but when you were there I was working. Let´s play sometime this weekend.

I did finally decide to get the adapter, and I’m very happy with it.
 I first played the Madden demo that came with the adapter and it ran smooth online!
 I rented NFL 2K3 and I love this game, it just has a better feel of football than Madden does. I´m not a big fan of Football video games but I’m having a blast with NFL 2K3 online. I´m playing with a 56k connection and it seems to run fine. I never had a broadband connection so this seems good to me.
 Too bad there isn’t going to be any hockey games online for the PS2 this year.
