I can totally understand this perspective. It would probably be very hard to find opponents that were willing to sit down for 3-6 hours and PLAY a TCP-IP game.

I ask people if they want to play SP3 Online and there's really NO interest.

I've even copied the CD several times and sent it out to some people,hoping to pick up a game. It hasn't happened.
