I shipped a game back Tuesday, April 28th. Monday, May 4th (today) I get an email saying my next game has shipped. That's a week. Just for them to recieve my old game, and ship my new one. The new one should get here weds-thurs. So. 10-11 days turn around.
It's constantly like this. About a 10day turn around. Which stepping back and looking at it means I'm only getting half the service I pay for. That's a week to get me a new game, so If I get 2 games a month. thats 2 weeks with a game, and 2 weeks without. But it still cost me the 17 bucks a month.
Game rentals @ the local hastings are 8 bucks a piece. so i'm not really saving any money by using gamefly. I'm thinking of ditching them. Plus locally, if the game sucks I can take it back in the first 24 hours and get $3 credit. Or like most games I can beat it in a 10 hour sitdown and take it back.
I've had them the last 4 months, and have only gotten maybe 6-7 games.
Sure I could get 2 games for 24.99 a month or whatever, and constantly have one. But I don't play that much and don't see a need for that.
I dunno, I'm just not really satistfied with gamefly. I work 12 hour night shifts and I'm off every other weekend. When that weekend comes, I'm usually wide awake 2, 3am all the way up until 10am when i go to bed. I like to have a new game to play through in those hours, because there's not much else to do that early/late.
All in all, i'm not really satisfied with the Gamefly service. I wouldn't really recommend it unless the younger crowd has there parents pay for it, or if you play the hell out of games and would actually use the multiple games at a time.
