Yea, it'll be enough to game online.

Any downloads will be painfully slow, though.

Not true at all

It doesn't matter what speed you have (as long as it's the minimum broadband) all that matters is how fast the info comes to and from your home.

I run on 1.5mb, because of where I live, not by choice. It works fine for playing on Live. You won't get any lag that everyone else is not getting anyways. Like someone said though, using the internet for other things like downloading is rough.
