good article. I agree with everything that youve said.

online sucks cause it lacks a basic formal structure or sop.

on-line games should pretty much eliminate any type of advantage, by that I mean in sports player ratings (i.e Lebron James, Kobe Bryant) should not even be in the equation, war ganes-power ups should all but disappear,
these games should be all about the users skill and knowledge of said sport or game. maybe they shoudl just allow an athletes tendencies thats it..

without these basics online will alwasu be suspect.
