Gamefly can seem expensive and slow in comparison to Netflix I agree, but compare gamefly to other ways of getting games instead of to Netflix (who doesn’t even do games.) It’s cheap and a great alt if you give them a more than a two week chance.

It takes a couple of months to figure out the value. If you think you’ll gamefly 3 – 4 games a month, then $23 is a bargain. Also for games that lay around I just ‘keep’ them. Their prices are pretty good and when I’m finally finished I trade them back for rental credit.

Not to argue or change your mind, but you seemed to give it up without really giving it a try. I stuck with it for various reasons, and after a few months, I’m liking it. I’m playing more and can play just about any game I want without worrying about getting stuck with a dud by buying it. That in itself has saved me quite a bit of money.
