Matt Young 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2005 Credit: Cheapy D of CheapAssGamer.com http://www.tkqlhce.com/click-1312731-10386046 Get 30 days of GameFly free. Offer expires April 30th. Maximum 2 games rented at one time. I just got in on this. The normal trials last I believe 7 days, so this is a great deal. I mean, come on... It's free games for a month.

Guest Vitamin X Report post Posted April 30, 2005 Yeah but then they say "Allow 2-3 weeks for delivery of first game", making both of them seem kinda pointless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Young 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2005 It says 2-4 days for me, and they ship from Inglewood, so it'll probably be closer to 2 days than 4. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Vitamin X Report post Posted April 30, 2005 Ah, I was just referring to what my friend said about it... Back when it was a 2-week free trial, which made it kinda pointless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ragingfear79 0 Report post Posted May 1, 2005 they say that to cover their asses, when you first sign up for them is usually pretty fast, ive had Gamefly for about 2 yearsand for a while there their delivery times was just attrocious, Im in Miami so sometimes it would take them over a week, but in the last two months or so they seem that they got their act together cuz know i get them in 3 days max. I love that site. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Young 0 Report post Posted May 1, 2005 For some reason, I don't rent games anymore. I'll pick up one a month with my free rental cards for each month at Hollywood Video, which I got from buying my Xbox at GameCrazy. But for some reason, I don't play games that I rent very much. I guess part of me is afraid I'll enjoy it, get halfway through it, and have to take it back, thus tainting the experience if I buy the game. However, this GameFly deal is nice because I can try out games I'm iffy on, such as Doom 3, Unreal Championship 2, and Jade Empire. Also, I can probably complete the short games and then, if they're really good, buy them later on when the price drops (I.E. Jade Empire again, Star Wars: Republic Commando, Lego Star Wars). Too bad the mailman doesn't bring the mail to our front door, though, so I can't imitate the commercial. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So I'm all about eBay and the used games section moreso now, and only buy a game if I know I'll enjoy it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matt Young 0 Report post Posted May 1, 2005 I buy used games, but not very often as I am very praticular about game and box conditions. I like to keep all my games, DVDs, and CDs (along with their cases) flawless. Besides, newer titles only go for about $5 cheaper used. Thank God for CheapAssGamer.com. Out of my 18 Xbox games, I don't think I've paid more than $30 for any of them, and they're mostly newer releases. Older titles, such as KOTOR, I got for $5 new and sealed. Plus they have people who work at every store that sells games, just about, and they have ads and sales (whether advertised or not) posted a week or two in advance.

Matt Young 0 Report post Posted May 3, 2005 Legos Star Wars and Jade Empire shipped yesterday, although I'm not sure I should play through Lego since it will likely spoil parts of Episode III.... I also have Unreal Championship 2, Star Wars: Episode III ROTS, Donkey Konga 2, Doom 3, and a few others which I'm forgetting ready to ship as soon as I send either or both of the first games back. Did nobody else get in on the deal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
death_by_burrito 0 Report post Posted May 3, 2005 Yeah, I got in on this deal yesterday. I signed up the day you first posted this, and since I didn't have the money in my account I was gonna just sign up for it yesterday when I got paid. I didn't think I was gonna still get the 30 day trial, but it still gave it to me which was pretty damn sweet. I got Star Wars: Republic Commando and Psychonauts on the way with Chaos Theory and WM21 waiting when I return those. This is indeed a sweet ass deal. Good job posting it. I bookmarked cheapassgamer.com, so I gotta go there more often to get in on some of the other deals they got there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
