Why is that? I know AOL does goofy thigns when you log online. but they can actually control what you do when you log on with your PS2? strange.

Yep... I got an Everquest demo and it didn't work, then I tried THPS, didn't work.
Then I tried NBA 2k, and it said "You must be in the AOL online gaming club to access this game online"
:/

Is AOL your only broadband isp that you have access to? Cuz if not, why the hell wouldn't have switched by now?
if AOL is your only available option...i almost feel sorry for you. almost.

I don't have AOL broadband... I have AOL Dial Up 
and that will change soon, very soon

Ouch.
No XboxLive for you...or SOCOM...
I personally am pissed about this one too; especially since Nintendo was heavily in talks with GameSpy some months ago regarding the tunnel-to-full-online conversion they were planning. AOL is definately the furthest from Nintendo's hopes of making online gaming FREE... 
My only hope is that with N5, Nintendo will still be smart like Sony and offer an open online network, so PC, Mac, and PS3 players can all join in for cross-platform mayhem.

It's still possible to cross-platform with the PS2/'Cube/PC Games. The agreement is saying that AOL will be the main choice for online 'Cube games. I doubt Nintendo would give dicatorship control to AOL.
Hopefully next gen. MS opens up their network to allow for muti-platform online gaming goodness. Then truly will online gaming be getting on track.

Re: Re: AOL and Nintendo Team Up for Online
True... it may be like Sony's deal...
Look on all your Ps2 games that can be accessed with dial-up. On the back as one of the features it always sais somthing like "AOL Online Gaming Compatible" even though you can use anything...
It's almost like an Advertizment.
