re: New Games on the Horizon (the video game thread)
^ Still think buying used then reselling is the cheaper path but more work then Gamefly. I have literally been paid to play games. I bought LittleBigPlanet for like $25 and sold it a month later for like $32. I KEEP no games, I have a paypal account just for buying used games I rarely have to put money into. It goes down when I buy then replenishes when I sell. Nice little system and it keeps the wife off my back for buying to many damn video games. =)

re: New Games on the Horizon (the video game thread)
I used gamefly off and on. I like it but there can be long waits for new/popular releases.

True about selling back, I forget I am one of the few who live about 2 hours from anywhere to trade games in at. <beats head on desk>

Never ever trade them to a Gamestop always sell on half.com or ebay. Don't get me started on Gamestop and their evil ways.

I've found the delivery times to be much quicker with Netflix too. |

re: New Games on the Horizon (the video game thread)
Netflix has a distribution center in Albany and another one nearby in MA. so I usually have a very quick turnaround. I could drop a movie in the mail on a Monday and have a new one back by Wednesday.

re: New Games on the Horizon (the video game thread)
Sometimes I may have a "short wait" for a movie but I haven't had any major issues. Maybe I've just been lucky.

Ok help me prove a theory of mine. How long have you been a member, just counting your current membership, don't count when you use to belong then quit then joined again, if you did that.

The only move I had a wait on so far was "Wild Hogs" and they shipped me that (from another distribution center) and my next movie "Taken", so I have two out for the price of one. Gamefly is much slower and takes more strategy to get games on release day. |
