So I don't think there's much choice here, unfortunately. As much as I hate the drawbacks of client side, it is still nice to not have to fight lag when shooting at an enemy (i.e. if on your screen you hit somebody it counts 100% of the time, unlike server side). But who knows, maybe the PS2 team has a trick up there sleeve here.
I would rather play with the hackers and CSHD than SSHD that requires 10ms ping to hit anything.
