Upload and download doesn't matter as much as ping does and all satellite internet providers have horrible ping due to the length the signal has to travel. You can't even use a VOIP on satellite much less play games on it. Especially if he plays FPS games.

My parents live out in the middle of nowhere on a lake in Florida, and they have hughesnet. It is absolutely the worst Internet I've ever encountered.

But I did launch call of duty black ops while I was there, just to look at the dedicated servers' ping. Lowest ping was about 1100. Yep, a ping of over a second.
