Gamefly - Is it Worth It?

[slinkman]

I didn't have a good experience with them, it'd take weeks at a time to get me my games, and they would send them from Philadelphia even though there is a center is Dallas (I'm in Iowa)

So I canceled it after 3 months.

Holy fuck nostalgia

I use it. I usually get the games in 3-4 days, sometimes 5. I think it is pretty good.

Is GameFly anything like Netflix?

Netflix works very well, so a service with a similar system and payment plan would be amazing for games.

Then again, I can see problems arising with games like Oblivion or Mass Effect.

Well if you want to try it, you should just give it a try.

You can always cancel it if you don't enjoy it, or find it worth $15 a month.

Netflix is godlike, especially if you have a PS3/360.

Gamefly, maybe not so much I think.

I just recently started using blockbusters gamepass, it's much better than gamefly, in my opinion. It's basically gamefly only in store, I'm paying 16 bucks a month to keep a game out at a time, so far I've finished Alan Wake, Just Cause 2, and Super Street Fighter in less than a week. It's easier because with gamefly you have to wait for the game to be shipped in and shipped out, not including the games that are screwed up on the arrival, I can just drive to blockbuster in 10 minutes and get a working copy. The only thing gamefly has is more games, supposedly, the blockbuster near me receive about 10 copies of the top 10 most popular games then go on and sell them used when people get tired of the games.

Cool guys...

I don't think I'm going to get it. But now, Jovial, I'm gonna check out that Blockbuster pass. I got two more days of school, I might as well spend the summer fucking myself up with video games... then comes college. :/

Newsflash: You have a Steam account that you use to play games.

I think everybody already knows this. Louis

I have it but it sucks when you actually buy games, cause then you end up not playing any games you get.
