Renting games online isn’t such a new an innovative idea anymore. After all, millions of people currently have a subscription to at least one online game rental service (most notably gamefly). Don’t worry if you are late joining this band wagon, because the premise of online game renting makes supply almost inexhaustible. Since it’s such a big market now a days, saturated with good and bad companies, it’s important to know what to look for.
The first thing to look for in a video game rental service is prices and plans. If the prices and plans don’t match up with your life style then obviously this is a no go before anything else. For example, if you are an avid gamer but you are also a college student, it’s probably best you check out one of the companies who allow one game out at a time, but unlimited changes per month.
The second most important thing to look for is game selection. Do you have an older PS2? Well not all companies are built the same so not all companies might carry the games you want. Do you want hand held games for the PSP or for the Nintendo DS or even some of the older games? These are important things to look for.
The third and final thing you should look for is turn around time. Some companies operate out of one warehouse so the turn around time will be slow if you are far away from it. However if you go with a larger company with more warehouses spread around the country then the turn around time will probably be a lot quicker.
