has anyone here got a subscriptin to gamezNflix?

i was just wondering since they are so much cheaper that gamefly

like look here

https://www.gameznflix.com/default.aspx?content=registration/registrationPlans

9/month for 1 game, and 13/month for 2 games, and they even offer more subscriptions plans than gamefly.

i am thinking baout making a switch, but i just want to know if it is worth it, ie, do they ship just as fast, and have the same game collection.

I ordered Cry, Cry Again and the camera work was horrible, and the guy recording it sat in gum

My problem with Gamefly was that it took forever for me to get games from them.

Do they still ship from CA?

ive either been really lucky or really unlucky.

gamefly timeline:
1. first games arrive in about 2-3 days. i get a few at the top of my list, but my first choice isnt even out yet.
2. return kameo, takes 8+ days to get to gamefly. i reported it lost and it arrived the next day.
3. receive dead rising its first day out after kameo delay (im happy)
4. return GRAW. also takes over a week to get there. report it missing and it remains so today.
5. receive Saints Row because of GRAW delay on the first day it is out (somewhat happy).
6. write a nasty email about the delays for my first 2 games and get 5 free gamefly dollars.
7. receive and return a few games with no major issues, but they arent even near the top of my list.
8. continue to play games near the mid/bottom of my list for a few days and then try and return to get my favs (about 3-4 games).
9. chromehounds gets lost in the mail and they send me another. takes 2 weeks to arrive.


tl;dr: gamefly still turns out to be a better deal than buying games, but not much better than blockbuster. over 3 months i got 2 popular games shipped to me on their first day out, but 3 games were lost or delayed in the mail resulting in almost a 2 week turnaround. in addition, after the first month i havent been able to get in my top 3. quick return helps, but a little less than half of my games have qualified (despite the fact that they should all qualify if the post office is the same).

i'll get it for a few months at a time, but i can never imagine keeping the subscription. this is particularly true since i almost NEVER had 2 games at once (partially my fault for returning when i got 1, mainly because im worried about delays so i keep ones i dont want longer until new one arrives).

well gamefly is a whole lot cheaper than buying games, for that fact that you only have to pay 15/month, versus 60 or 120 month. having to spit out 60 at the time is very hard for some peopple, in fact it is hard for a lot of gamers. and not only that, if you decide to buy a game from gamelfy (as soon as you get it is the best time to buy so you can save more money) it is cheaper, and your next game ships to you immediately if it is currently available.

i did cancel my gamefly subscription earlier this year because i felt like they were holding back on my queue since i was returning game to them rather fast (2/month). but i decided to get it back since there is a lot of games i would love to play but don't want to buy them because of low replay value. usually i only play a game for about 1 month, so after 1 month i just send it back and get something else.

ah word, see in my 3 months (which ends on nov2nd) ive already rented GRAW, Kameo, Dead Rising, Saints Row, Battle for Middle Earth 2, Chromehounds, Trauma Center, Phoenix Wright. i'd be more if the turnaround wasnt so slow at times. thats probably why they dont always give me quick return.
