Game Rental Sites

by Devin Flanigan

Video game rental sites may be the best way to keep on top of all the hot new games while still having enough money left in your pocket to fund your Xbox Live account. These game sites allow customers to rent as many games as they can handle for one flat monthly fee. The fact that that fee is usually a fraction of the cost of just one game is icing on the cake.

Renting from online video game sites also means no more late fees, which by itself should make your wallet a great deal fatter. The purveyors of these sites listened to gamer's complaints about poor selection and service at the video store giants and responded accordingly. Warehouses full of hot games for consoles new and old set these game rental sites apart from the retail dinosaurs.

There is no industry standard for how many hours of game play a title offers, so you never know whether your $50 investment will yield a Zelda or a Conker. Renting for a flat fee levels the playing field, and makes you sure of the fact that you're getting your money's worth. No late fees means you can keep the longer games as long as it takes to beat them, and not get harshly penalized for the privilege.

Game rental sites have taken advantage of the Netflix business model to deliver convenience and value to the average gamer. For a market used to indifferent if not hostile treatment from corporations, it's about time that the power shifted back into the hands of consumers. If you want to check out infinite games for a very finite fee, you can look into game rental sites.
