Since the new PS2 machines dont got I-link, what do you think will happen to offline multiplaying with more then two players? :confused:

Is there any games that support "linking" with the network adapter while not connected to the internet?

Sorry if this has been brought up before. Did a search but found nothing about it.

Regards. //Eddie.
 
Yeah, I think they're migrating to network linking, simliar to XBox "System Link". It's basically low level networking. Gran Turismo 4 will have this capability. In actuallity this makes so much sense. I have just recently priced the i.Link hardwared (and bought some) for playing GT3 linked. The hub was $45 (cheapest I could find) and the cables are $25 a piece. With networking equipment everything is about 1/4 that price. Additionally it can be used for computers quite easily. A lot of people who have XBoxes also have computers, and a high speed internet connection. They probably already have a 4 port switch in their house, so it just makes good sense.
 
I sure as h*ll hope they will do it. I-Link meetings was half the fun in GT3. :D
 
Yeah I hope they do too, if my bro buys a PS2 it would be nice to play link games rather than split screen. :)
