People can scarcely tolerate playing a game with high ping as it is.

People who classify themselves as "hardcore gamers" perhaps, but those people will also drop upwards of $1000 on a graphics card. They're not the majority in gaming. Most people will happily play a game even if there are a few problems if it's cheap and entertaining.

Anyone will throw a controller across the room after putting a whole clip into someone taking no damage, watching them rubber band across the map, and pistol whip you in the head. That's your life on a crappy connection in most FPS games which are some of the best sellers every year.
