"After taking the DVD market by storm with its $1-a-night rental kiosks, Redbox is dipping a toe into $2/night video game rentals, starting with kiosks in Reno, Nevada [update: and Wilmington, North Carolina]. Limited selection so far, but hard to beat the convenience."


sweeeeeet, pretty random that Wilmington is the second place in the country to get one of these

i wonder how much they charge you for keeping the disc?


if it is less than it is to buy it, then that would be how i got all my games... try them out and if i like it, instead of going to buy it, I'd just keep it and pay the penalty- i don't think they charge full price for dvd's that are kept...

do you really think they didn't consider that in their business model? of course total charge for keeping it is going to be slightly higher than just buying it new

^^I thought they only charged you like 10-15 bucks


^this is why I was asking this because i thought it was less... which never made sense to me, just what I was told

i would always end up keeping a game for at least a week, and would rather do blockbuster/gamefly instead.
