"This isn't the case when using certain virtualization software and decent hardware, 
while giving dedicated resources to the servers."

And until the day every other VPS provider follows this mindset, VPS's will 
always be unsuitable for the demand a high-usage game server will put on it. 
It's all well and good flogging the NFO horse, but give it a rest. A dedicated 
server will always outperform a VPS equivalent of the same spec. I'd recommend 
simply renting a server instead of the VPS or dedicated solution. It's a lot of 
investment for a game server.

it was possible to do well with a virtual server either, until I saw it done
at nfoservers.com. We have 3 TF2 servers running without problems on a
hyperthreaded 2 core virtual server from NFO.

Dont get a Virtual Server... all it will do is lag, that's why its cheaper
to get one.... Dont believe people or websites when they say its possible to
host game servers virtually... You can host it virtually a laggy server if
that's what you want...

Get a Dedicated Server with good specs and use it to host your game server.

Setting up your server's IP address to appear as your domain can be done
through your name servers of your web hosting. However, if you wish to run
a
server that doesn't use up your own resources, you will need to pay for an
additional host through another type of company; called a game server
provider. You'll have to make some decisions like anon said and then make
the separate purchase for a hosted game server. I like
http://www.nfoservers.com as well; they are pricey, but they beat every
other provider that I've personally looked at in service, quality, and
features.
