"Online Costs?"

How much does it cost to go online with the PS2.

I mean this in a cost per month sense, not all the hardware rubbish.

you see, I, Tribute, Ninty fanboy supreme, am getting a PS2 tomorrow (or not soon after), and am thinking of getting US Navy Seals and a hardrive with it.

So can you inform me on how much it'd cost to play US Navy Seals online?

Ta.

Grab a copy of Official PS2 Magazine (OPSM2) from your local newsagents, its got 14 brand new game demos on it this month :)

I would, but I'd rather spend that £3/£4 on a game (PES1) than a magazine.

Also, would a normal webcam work with an eyetoy?

Just out of interest, that is.

Ha ha, you wish, I would frag you in an instant, even on one of my bad days, many bad days I should say.

I may not be the best player in the world, but guys like laker, fantasy meister and manic myna would admit I am not a pushover.

I'll admit - you'd probably batter me.

FPS' are not my thing, I prefer a platformer or sports.

But I think I'll have to buy Underground on PS2, just so I can be myself.

Tony Hawks or Need for Speed?

I'll be getting Tony Hawks.

Nope, most peripherals require drivers as well, and the PS2 doesn't come with drivers built in for webcams. Having said that, any USB mouse, keyboard or headset seems to work fine with it. I'm tempted to get Eyetoy myself as I've heard it's great fun, but so many games so little time :(

It'll probably be a whiel before I get SOCOM, if at all.

First job is to get PES1 for about £7 in GAME, or, if I've got £30, the Eyetoy.

The eyetoy is the main reason of which purchased my 2nd hand PS2.

no online costs? not even ISP costs?

You are obviously being sarcastiqué

This news is disturbingly intriguing i'Oranges.
