Online Game Rental Services

[Legolas]

Hey guys- I dont know how many of you get your console games through the mail, but id appreciate any help in deciding which service to choose if you do. Right now, I have Gamefly, and it totally sucks. It takes them 2 weeks to get my game and 2 weeks for them to send it. That is total bs. Well now Im looking to get rid of gamefly and go with a better service. The reason i hear gamefly takes so long to ship is because they have only one center, in california. However, I live in New York. So what im looking for is a service with obviously more than one shipping center and a good selection. Im looking at gamerang. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

So, besides the long wait for games, is GameFly a pretty good service? I wanted to try GameFly, and I live in California...

there is no long wait, its just that it takes a long time for gamefly to receieve it.

actually, people in california actually tell me it takes a long time for shipping as well. Gamerang has shipping centers in New Jersey, California and some central state. Therefore, I would expect gamerangs games to get to me a lot faster, as they can handle more demand on games. I also hear bad things from gamefly that if u try to cancel, theyll charge you for any games you have out. Thats why i just took all the games off of my que. When they finally get the game I sent back 2 weeks ago, ill cancel and they cant charge me for anything..

Of course... you think they'll just let you keep it? :blink:

I like http://www.gameznflix.com/, i signed up with them, and for 3 months i didnt get charged a dime. The third month, i figured out how to get games for free, so i canceled, but i did keep the games i rented and they didnt say anything.

hmmm... whatever, but gamefly is great, i just order and comes the next day, but rarely it takes another extra day for it to come.

Signed up for the free trial with Gamefly on the 17th. They shipped my first two games on the 18th, and I got both of them today (the 19th). So far Gamefly is pretty cool, so far so good. :)

lol if you live in LA, you'll probally can do local pick up , since the Gamefly place is in orange county :D:P

I doubt they let me do a local pick up :P , but yeah it's cool being real close. I live 30 minutes away from them, so the games should arrive much quicker, I just might stay a member instead of cancelling after the free trial. :)
