Well besides lag. I think I remember seeing somewhere PS itself only takes up like 1kb/s. I don\'t remember exactly but the modem will run. I would however strongly suggest you do not download the current version, MB, since CB is in the final testing phase and will be a whole new download and not a patch or anything like that.

Other people are playing PS with a 56K modems, and it works fine, but I\'m not sure what it\'s like with a 28K modem, but it should work. Not sure here, but it wouldn\'t be a bad idea to buy a 56K modem ;)

Edit: Gah, Boldstorm beat me to it :P
