"2 new games to get"

In a week I will have £60, then the week afer £70.

I want two new PS2 games, just been on http://shop.game.net/browse.aspx?cat=9 and saw SSX 3 due out for 24OCT, and FIFA 2004 out for 24th OCT aswell.

I didn't think FIFA was online but from reading on the site:

A Game With No Boundaries: Take on opponents from anywhere around the globe via EA Sports online via your PS2. An online lobby area where you can meet, greet, chat and play FIFA Football 2004 head to head with other gamers.

It may be online.

I need to know, do I not get FIFA amd wait anoter week so I can get SSX 3 and Everquest preordered? Or do I get SSX 3 and FIFA?

Any input would be nice.

If thw websitr is upto date, then it says it is still online.

I have my ps2 online, and that's the reason why I wanted it online. When you have a low income like me, liked SSX Tricly, I would like to think that a rare buy from me, which is what a new game is, would hopefully incorporate a recently bought and well sued part of my PS2.

Now I know that won't make much sense when you read it, but it did to me.

Reminds me of the beach.

SSX3 online?
That sucks.
Boo!

A waste just because it isn't online? Wow, I hadn't realised the online thing was becoming so important. To me, it would have been a waste if some things had been online exclusively. I almost certainly won't go online with PS2, and therefore would prefer it if future PS2 games, in particular stuff like SSX 3, would just stay as offline games.

From the previews I've read, it sounds like SSX 3 could have some incredible slopes, spreading out over vast distances, allowing you to just go out and enjoy the unbroken snow. It would be a real shame if you had to follow 50 other people down a slope through an online connection. I'd be forever trying to find a place away from everyone else.

Everquest on PC has monthly subscription of $8.25 (about a fiver) but it does work out cheaper if you do it for 3/6/12 months in advance.

Yea there should be, MMORPG's usually come with them due to the sheer size they operate at.

Nah, EA scrapped all online UK releases except FIFA 2004, so they can concentrate on that instead. :(

Yeah, that's why I have that pre-ordered and paid for now.

I'm think I'll save 2 weeks and order Everquest.

Is there a monthly cost for Everquest?
