So, let me get this straight... A "node" is a bunch of celebrities floating on a blue plane apparantly not at all related to eachother. Fantastic! Where do I sign up and pay my 12.99?

OK ... soooooo ... after 20 odd years of interactive gaming and
graphics, this is someone's idea of the future?!

I think P2P would be great, after all, isn't basically what DOOM,
DESCENT, and a slew of other games were based on? You've got
P2P, but you also have a HOST. The obvious reason for a HOST is
cooridinated actions. Hmmmmm ... I'm feeling sick from looking at
those pictures.

Gimme a break. Say hi to Britney on the blue plane of 'nodieness' for me. Better yet, jump on the yellow ball with your kitty avatar and fight to the death with GI Joe! Or chat about it, whatever.
