I only bring up promotions when they are good deals. I could be ultra late on posting this, and I have no idea when this was originally created. Better late than never though, right? When doing some research I came across some really great information on how certain gamers can save money. Lots of money actually. Are you a fan of Sony's massively multiplayer online games? If you find yourself jumping from subscription to subscription, sony now has a really good deal to save you some cash. Sony is offering a global subscription account called Station Access. You basically get access to multiple massively multiplayer online games for one low price. One of these games includes the ps2's very own, Everquest Online Adventures. Here are the games you get access to:

· EverQuest® II (PC)
· EverQuest® (PC)
· EverQuest® Macintosh Edition (MAC)
· PlanetSide® (PC)
· EverQuest® Online Adventures™ (PC)
· Station Pass™ access, which includes the popular games Infantry Online™, Cosmic Rift™ and Tanarus®

If you find yourself wanting to play Everquest on the PC, on PS2, and Planetside, then this would be a really great deal. The bonus would be getting access to the 3 main station pass games, Infantry, Cosmic, And Tanarus. Which are more of an oldschool PC gaming feel. Just to play these 3 games it costs $6.95 a month.

To get a Station Access account, it will cost you just $21.95 a month. This would cover all the games listed above. If you have the income to support this, and are looking to bounce around from MMO to MMO, this would totally be a way to go.

I liked PlanetSide. By the time I get a new computer that would work better with it, I'll probably have a job and the capability for a station account. Then I could hop on EQOA with my obsessive cousins and it would cost me a little less then the two separately and I'd get some extra stuff. It's worth a thought.

Yea I mean, not "everyone" will be able to take advantage of this. But, for those that have the money to, it would be dope to be able to just power on EQoA, PlanetSide or some of those other games, and just play for a bit. Just having the option is pretty cool, and if you have the money coming in, its a great luxury.

For instance over on GC, I pay my PSO hunter's liscense every month, I have the money coming in to cover it. So whether I play or not, i keep paying. Simply because I like having the option to hop on whenever the mood strikes me.

Regardless, of whether anyone will ever take advantage of it, it's still interesting information to know.

If sony adds more games to it, it will only sweeten the deal. I bet within the next year this might get another game or 2 added to it.

I believe Star Wars Galaxies was added to Station Access as well.

That's pretty insane. PlanetSide, Everquest (pc / mac / ps2), and Star Wars Galaxies. LOL Are they trying to kill people? You'd have to be gaming 24/7 to play all of those. I guess it would be fun for a month to sign up for a station access account and go bonkers playing all these games at once for a month. I don't even know if thats possible, you'd have to stop breathing IRL even to do this Laughing A crazy deal though for anyone playing 2 or more of these games at the same time.

I should dig up how much each game normally costs online.
