  While true, I'd say still very relevant. Even though home broadband has improved drastically since 1999, you also have to now consider mobile connections (while high-speed in large cities, they have sketchy service elsewhere, and usually high-latency). So I'd say it's as relevant as ever.

  By and large, this is still an accurate description of the networking architecture in Unreal Engine today which has been used in such recent games as Gears of War (2005), Gears of War 2 (2007), Borderlands (2009), Medal of Honor (2010), and indeed most Unreal-based games released since '99
