Hey Gamers,
Just to drop a line for anyone who has not yet tried Internet TCP/I Play as of yet. Pzap and myself have finally gotten around to it and it went off without a hitch. I used the "What is my IP address" web site to find out what my IP address, gave it to Phillip, started the game on my end, and he connected to my puter and all went well, in fact it was pretty cool. You also have a dialog box that comes up to text each other while the game is in progress, but we use Xfire where we can physically talk to each other and all you need is a speaker and mic or headset with mic. As far as the IP address and from what I have read, your provider may change it from day to day so you may have to check what it is every time you want to connect with someone for a game. So for those of you who were curious about TCP/I Play, it works well and may be worth looking into.
