Damn right. I remember playing the original Unreal Tournament and if you had a ping time under 350ms you were doing incredibly well. It was about the slowest you could have whilst still having any chance in the game. And that was of course fine until these people with cable or DSL broadband started getting in on the act with their 70-80ms ping times, and wiped the floor with all us saddos still on dial-up connections. (Or equally, you'd get some cocky sod jump on from their university network and, equally, annihilate everybody else.)
