Can you play video games off of 4g Wimax?

I am in tampa with unofficial 4g coverage.. Do you think I could play WoW off of 4g? Maybe 3g?

Yes you can on both 3g or 4g just know that your latency will be a lot higher which will cause some lag.

What would I be looking at on 3g and 4g?

Also, if I play a ton of video games using 4g or 3g with my laptop will sprint notice with a rooted phone?

I would figure on 3g latency would be around 400ms and 4g maybe 150ms to 200ms.
