a place to get your games online?
there are two things i've been wanting for some time now but i cant seem to get my hands on them for a resonable price. i need phantasy star online I&II for the GC and a stradigy guide for final fantisy XI. both of these together should cost me no more then 50 bucks. the places around my house are charging $50 for PSO and $25 for FFXI stradigy guide. i went online and i found the write prices but the shiping cost are just unapealing. does anyone know a good online store for games?

Play.com might work for you.
But they are not really that cheap, so I guess it doesn't really answer your question.

Personally, I'd do this over Amazon.com
Not only are they reliable (I've never been disappointed) but they also have great sorts of deals that go something like, "If you buy over $50 worth of stuff, shipping is free," etc. Plus they have some pretty competitive prices. Only yesterday I bought Freedom Fighters from them for just 9.99

Play are great for European types - I haven't used anyone other than them for games and DVDs for years now, with the exception of Beyond Good and Evil - they took over a month to send it out so I cancelled and bought it off Amazon instead. Other than that, the only anomaly I've had was when they sent my UT2004 pre-order a few days late - for which they gave me £2.50 off my next purchase.

I've been ordering games and Dvds with Play and had no problems either, I only lost one game and they sent it again within two weeks. Good prices and nice site, can't really complain since before it I had no choice but buying games (old and new) at 50/55 € each.

I buy movies from play.com all the time, it's a realiable and great site, especially for european customers, playusa.com on the other hand sells only r1 movies, and I believe their HQ is located near USA.
I buy most of my new games from www.dvdboxoffice.com which is located in Canada. They are also highly reliable, but sometimes a bit slow. It took them several weeks to deliver me Syberia 2, but DooM³ came in 7 days.

Hey Kolzid, does dvdboxoffice charges you with additional taxes and stuff or the price is you see is the one you pay? If the delivery is really free worldwide...

No additional charges.
The price you see on the pages is the one you pay. It's as great as play.com, the shipping is free worldwide as they say.
