This is a good question... but I would go with playing it online because it is faster and easier.

The downloading method could be a good choice too because your internet may crash and I can't play your games. Also, it is a lot faster but you can play it only offline.

I would really download games on an emulator rather than playing it online. Your internet may crash, as Sorinkun said. I try to avoid that, so I usually stick with offline emulators.

At first, I though this was related to another thread, but I open this up and seen this, it's a little more different from that other thread.
Anyway, this can be a tough choice that you can play online like on here and it's much easier to do without downloading, but at the same time that it's better to download because you're internet can randomly disconnect and then you lost connection in a middle of a game and that'll be bad.

It depends on the game I'm trying to play. Some the games I want to play I can't play online, So I need to download the roms. I don't really mind, as long as it works well.

I prefer online. Because my computer doesn't have much memory, so playing online makes my life a whole lot easier.

The games i play are too big to play.
If it then came down to downloading or on disk id sooner have a disk because i dont have to wait as long to install it, they dont tend to force updates on you, and of course it uses less hdd space.

I would most definitely rather play online, because downloaded games is just a hassle for me. Some of the GBA roms I downloaded to play on my emulator previous to knowing about Vizzed, it always lagged, and I just never played them for the horrible quality. I tried different emulators, still the same issue. It's my laptop I concluded. 

Anyway, for Plants vs. Zombies, I have an iPad mini, and I just play there. No issues for me. 

If I had to download a game, it sure as heck should be worth it. I tried downloaded and installing SWTOR...gosh darnit, 9 hours of installation, and then it says the installation process went corrupt. Lol.

One of the main reasons I came to vizzed was because of the fact that you could play retro games without downloading any sort of emulator or rom. I think it is handy because you do not have to waste much memory while using the RGR plugin. The only thing you have to download is the plugin and the game save data which downloads automatically. Also the RGR plugin has better emulators for most consoles apart from the N64, because that in my opinion sucks. Unfortunately there are very few decent N64 emulators so I can let Vizzed of for that.

Online, for sure. I don't want a whole bunch of junk on my computer. It would slow it down way too much for my liking. Plus, I would probably forget it was on my computer, and that would just be wasting memory.

I usually prefer to do it online so I don't risk downloading a virus. However there are some games that I like better as a download. It all depends on the game.

SadSecrets :
When you play a game online it typically puts some data on your pc. Vizzed puts the entire game on your pc, its still there even when you stop playing.

tgags123 :
Nice try, but since games put data onto your machine you can still get a virus.
Even just browsing the web, your browser saves data temporarily, hence why just viewing something can allow viruses in.

zanderlex : That's interesting: usually, emulators run faster offline than when they depend on an Internet connection. At least that's what I believe!
