PC gaming has a pricing problem, and the memory crisis is compounding it in a way that's utterly heartbreaking for our hobby (www.pcgamer.com)

Playing rhythm or fighting games with any seriousness can't be done with the extra delay. 20ms is enough to spoil it. If you happen to have a good fiber connection and an Nvidia server in your city it's probably fine but that isn't the case for a lot of people. (And I'd rather have more control over the experience anyway)

Oh yeah i don't play this kind of game but as a musician i can see how 20ms could be grating in a rhythmic context.
