I'm with gamefly right now but they seem really slow. It can take over a week before they register my returns.

Nah, I dont like to rent games... but renting movies online with NetFlix, is badass...

everytime i want to rent a game, i can't because it's out of stock. I wouldn't rent enough to justify gamefly

Well I'd cash into the service if I lived in America. I got a free coupon at PAX last year. It would definitely cut down on my gaming costs if they shipped at a decent speed.

I think the last time I rented a game was during the N64 era. I've never rented a game (or movie) online though. For some reason we just don't rent movies much. And most games I want I'd rather buy. As long as I can afford it, why not? Especially since they'll be compatible with Project: Revolution.

When I have my own home though, I plan on just paying for the movie channels. Maybe by that time, they'll have a gaming channel too (Sega Channel anyone? That was revolutionary and awesome).

I have probably rented one game in the last year, almost any game worth taking a look at deserves more than just 5 days to play.

I would rather buy.

I love renting games online. It gives me the chance to play games that look interesting but that I don't necessarily want to buy. I have over 40 games in my queue right now. You can keep them as long as you want for a flat monthly rate.
