Anybody else here doing GameFly?

Just curious...
I've been renting from them for a couple months now. I think it's great, I've gotten many more opportunities to play games I either wouldn't have given a shot otherwise.
For example...somebody on here mentioned how they like Voodoo Vince...so I rented it, played it for maybe all of 10 minutes and decided to buy it!
I think it's great, so...anybody else doing it?
 
Three games out at a time is $30 a month, Two games at a time is $20ish and 1 at a time is $15 (something like that anyhow).
I usually only keep my games a day or two. That way I rent as many as possible in a month :p
 
They are renting DS games now, too, right? I will probably have to sign up after Christmas just for that. I would love to try out Madden and Urbz on the DS just to see what they are like.

30 a month? That seems rather pricey, I think I'll just stick with 2 a month.

I guess if you rented 30 or more per month....that wouldn't be so bad :)

yeah... imo that is a bit pricey..... but hey, if you enjoy it why not :)

It works in my case 'cause I don't have time to make it to Blockbuster once a week (nor do I want to deal with the hassle of returning stuff all the time).
 
but you have to ship it back to return it, right?

man... I wonder how they deal with theft and stuff?

Shipping is pre-paid...just drop it back in the envelope, seal it up and throw it in your mailbox.
As for theft...I dunno...if you were to steal a game and not tell them you'd just be paying your subscription cost untill you cancelled...then they'd charge you for the game. If you told them it was lost they'd probably let you get away with it...at least untill it became a pattern from one person.
I had a game (apparantly) get lost in the mail on it's way back to them. I sent two games on the same day...one showed up (they e-mail you when a game is shipped out or is returned) the other never did. I e-mailed them...explained what happened and they said "ok we'll ship your next games out soon."
I'd have to think if one person reported lots of lost games they might pull the plug on their subscription. Otherwise...what's a handfull $20 video game to a several million dollar (if not more) business?
