Don't bother with PTW
It's completely worthless. The lag is so horrible you'll never finish a game. And it's not just moving a unit kind of lag, it's clicking too. You can try to view your city and it will sit there for like 20 seconds and then finally perform the command. I got through 3 turns and said **** it. DON'T BUY IT unless you really really want to be pissed off.

Lag can also be a problem in Civ2MP depending on your connection. Although I have a feeling that PTW might demand far more bandwidth seeing the slowdown problems in Civ3. This problem could be even worse in MP.

How does it shape up when you compare it to Civ2MP (in optimal and suboptimal circumstances)?
