Afrihost launches gaming servers - AfriGamer

Good job Afrihost. Keep up the good work and I for one appreciates a company that does what it can to provide to its costumers and not just do what they can to make money.
 
Somebody needs to test Afrigamer with an Afrihost and then a non-Afrihost account to find out how great the difference in latency really is. MyGaming/MyBB investigation?
 
This will work nicely with my Free 1gb I got from the promotion - still use it every month as it gives me better latency for gaming than my uncapped account, especially when it comes to international.
 
I agree the more game server's the better, even though there may not be the biggest gaming community in this country, having the freedom to choose is always a plus in my books.
 
Would this mean that playing with an Afrihost account on these AfriGamer servers will be free? Similar to WebAfrica's FreeZone service?
 
The only thing that gets me is that EVERYONE hosts popular game servers, to the point where you typically sit with 5 or 6 empty ones most of the time but then NO-ONE hosts any fringe stuff which people might enjoy but never have local servers to play on. I doubt it uses up that much processing power just to throw on another dedicated server, so I don't see the issue of just keeping one up even if people only play on it on the weekends.

Two games that come to mind are Brink and Monday Night Combat.

Not sure if Brink servers are back up but the weekend that it was free on Steam I couldn't find a single local server.
