1) online game
2) internet connection
3) money to pay for the monthly server fee
4) play game

basically, if you have the game and internet, you can play online, some games don't charge server fees, most do.

Do you mean MMO games like WOW/Everquest or the online ultiplayer type like COD 4 or Battlefield? The latter are generally free to play online but for both you do have to own the game. MMO games mostly have a monthly fee of $10-15. There are some free MMO's but they're not as popular and I don't know of any good enough to recommend.
