    Want to ask a question.

    Ok, so you know how if you live in a certain country and you want to get something from the US (for example) and you can use a proxy to get what ever you want. Like my computing teacher uses a proxy so he can get Netflix on his PS3 since we don't have it in NZ.

    My question is, can I use a proxy or something to play games with my friends from the US? I want to play L4D2 and some other games with some friends I've made that live in the states without having to deal with a 200+ping every game because of the different regions.

    I think you'd have a lot of lag because proxies normally have got a high ping.

    Proxies are horrible for playing games.
    Just try playing with people in your same country.

    I don't play with proxies atm. It doesn't lag, its just that the hit time takes for ever. It takes like 3 seconds for the bullet to reach the enemy if the person in the states is hosting the game. Kinda like playing CoD when the host has crap connection
