If there’s lag it wasn’t noticeable, I don’t think a ton of people are playing Episode III at once. It was released at a rather ill-opportune time, after the holidays and right at the beginning of midterm exams.

As for Mother, you call it easy? I was told of both games (?) by one of my juniors, it sounds amazingly awesome, but it’s played in three dimensions, right? Shouldn’t that make it more difficult than other tactical sci-fi games?
