Gamefly offers up special Xbox Live offer

I agree. I took a look at the site, and its a bit confusing. I dont see any fine print stating how you will get the 400 points.

Can anyone confirm that this is $5.95 plus they will GIVE you 400 MS points? It could be $5.95 + 400 MS points, which would equal to roughly $9.95.

400 microsoft points has an exclamation mark next to it. It's obviously meant as "Sign up and get 400 microsoft points" though I realize why it could be confusing.

Great service,,,, but then again i live by a distribution center. Great thing is the keep it prices. I got NG2 for 30 and MGS4 for 45, I was the first to rent them so they are kind of new.

gamefly is a very good service depending on where you live, i haven't used them in a while and their new availability program concerns me about how long a game will be available.

I live in Chicago, which apparently isn't super close to their distribution channels... at least it wasn't several months ago.

Forget about the 1 game plan. It takes about a week for them to get the game and ship it back... meaning you're lucky if you get to try 1 to 2 games in a month.

I liked the 3 game plan better, but it quickly devolved in a game of organizing my queue so I could get new titles around the time they released. There's so many other people trying to get things that most of what I wanted was marked as long wait.

I was never completely happy with it for the price. I felt like I spent a hell of a lot more time waiting for games than actually playing them. It's definitely not as efficient as, say, Netflix... but then again, they have a Chicago distribution channel lol.

I just got it, and I love it! The only problem is availability of some games. Older games are harder to come by, and some of the newer games are harder to get. It's great for trying out those games you didn't want to spend $60, but were interested in.

Also, if you are a cheevo farmer like myself... this opens up a whole cheevtastic world of unharvested ch33vz. :P

I love Gamefly. I've been with them since 2003 and have yet to have any real issues with them. A couple of games have got lost on the way back, but it was never an issue. I live in the Houston area and they opened up an Austin distribution center about a month ago and the service has improved quite a bit. Games only take about a day or two to get here and back now. They send me new releases the day of as well. I can get new games at a very cheap price as well with their "GameFly Bucks" I could keep MGS4 right now for $34. It's a great service.

I'm somewhat dissatisfied with Gamefly. It's 2 days post to the distribution center, so when I send in a game, it's 2 days for it to get there, and then 2 days for them to send the next one. In other words, if I weren't paying for the 2 out at a time plan, I'd have nothing to play for 4 days. I only really sign up for a month when there is a new release I want to rent, and really, I think that is the only thing the service is good for. It'd be much cheaper to buy the occasional cheap used game and not signup for gamefly, than to signup just to play old games (if that makes any sense).

Oh man it is excellent! I recommend it to everyone. I even have the 4-game account. Been using it since November, I live in San Francisco and get games in 2-3 days. It saved me a ton of money. Plus no more getting burned on buying bad games!

Try GamezNFlix, great prices, their service was far more kind that GameFly's, both in wait, and prices.

With them, I think you can get 3 games out for 17 a month (!!!)

I'm gonna take advantage of this deal, however...see if GF's premium prices are worth it (probably not.)

I've had Gameznflix on two separate occasions and even own stock in them, but they are total garbage unless all you're interested in are 2 year old games.

It is impossible to get anything resembling a new release from them.

Teh ch33v0z are calling.
