    Surprised people do not rent more with prices of some new games. The Diablo games at $60 or $70 would likely boost rentals if you could rent PC Games like that:).

    I like renting games every now and again. Redbox is good, but a little pricy. Gamefly is good though.

    For video game rentals? Absolutely not in my opinion, way too expensive $2 per-night (that's $14 a week!)... plus limited selection. Unless the plan is to blow through games or just want to try the game before buying it it's just not a good way to go.
