Title: Aol= online Cube
Post by: Jdub03 on September 16, 2003, 04:18:44 PM
Aol uses a proprietary browser right. So what happens to people without AOL. Will the games also utilize browsers such as netzero earthlink juno etc. I would hope aol is the prefered isp, allowing customers to choose their own providers. I remember I couldnt use the dreamcast browser because I had aol. Now ive gotten rid of aol and nintendo does this.

Huh? Nintendo have no plans to release any of their own online games yet. Nintendo aren't online.

- You guys worry too much.
- You won't need AOL to play online with the GC.
- AOL is only making the servers. Again, you won't need it's connection.
- AOL is available in many parts of the world. But, again, you won't need it to connect.
- Nintendo has zero online games in the pipe that would use AOL, so chances of all this mattering is low.
- Sony did the same thing, and no one gived a damn. Why is Nintendo any different?

This topic is really odd. I've been online with my G.C. for months. PSO is the only online console game worth playing.
