How is DirectTV's internet service? Is it fast enough to play online games with?
They don't have internet service, at least that I know of.. They were paired up with Hughesnet back in the day, but I don't know if they still are. They have a partnership with AT&T and bundle pricing for Directv Video/AT&T internet.
I have Direct and then comcast for internet.

No, satellite internet can never be good enough for games (at least not multiplayer ones). The speed of light means that the ping times via geosynchronous satellite is about 500 milliseconds. Most gaming requires pings under 100ms.
Unless DTV has a DSL partner in your area.
