Gamefly?

I was just wondering if anyone here used gamefly and if it was worth it or not. 16 dollars a month for 1 game out at a time is quiet a bit.

It's awesome. I use to have it. Only downside is when you turn in a game it's 4 - 5 days before you get the next one. At least that's how it was when I had it. With Netflix I put the movies in the box and it was either the next day or the day after that I had the new movies.

I use it and have been for a couple years now. I agree that it's an awesome service. Gamefly for games is pretty much like netflix to me. I can't imagine getting games any other way. delivery has gotten really fast too. 4-5 days isn't the norm anymore. my games arrive in 1-2 days.

I'm trying to cut back on my spending now, so the thought of dropping $60 on a game when i might not even like it doesn't make sense at all. $200 and I'm set for games all year long. I'd spend that on 3 games new if i was buying.

they have a holiday signup special right now if you're interested in trying them out. I think $7 for the first month or something like that...

Just checked their homepage and looks like it's still on.

Does anyone know what happened to gameznflix? I was doing some checking around the other day saw their site was gone. I rented from them awhile ago cause of the movie + games thing they had going but they never had anything in stock.

i fought it too grow tech, they closed all local bb stores around here, i do the bb online for movies and gamefly for games, its worth it if you like playing different games all the time like me, and not have to pay $60 a pop on the games your bored of in 1 month

You should check it out. i love it. i've rented from BB but never understand why. Shoddy experience all round. gamefly is as fast as netflix and it's cheap compared to alternatives. I think you can sign up for something like $7 for a month's trial right now.

looks like gameznflix is out of business. did some checking around. sites gone and i've seen some news about it. that suck for their customers. well probably not. i've found the netflix for movies and gamefly for games combo unbeatable.

I remember when I used "The Fly"! It was a great way to copy games and send them back the burnt version with a great print of the cd. They never ever found out! I had so many originals it was bonkers! Then I fell into the web of iso images on"The Bay"!! Still hooked to this day on the bay!
