I made a thread about renting games, and I HIGHLY recommend it.

-$22 a month for 2 games out at a time
-Only in the USA
-Free shipping both ways
-No late fees
-Unlimited swaping power
-If you want to keep a game, you get it at a reduced price
-Requires a credit card
-Rent from over 3,000 games, across all platforms (including DS, PSP, GBA, Xbox 360, ext)
-Takes 2-4 days to receive games
-Takes 4-8 days turn around time (sending a game back, and waiting for a new one)
-If you only want 1 game, it's only $15 a month (you can change you acount from the $15 plan, to $22, or vice-versa, easy as pie.)
-When you sign up, you get a free years worth of Official Xbox Magazine (limited time only)

No problem, gamefly is awsome. It took me 15 years of gaming to realize how cool renting can be. Any questions, feal free to ask, I've been signed up for a couple months now.

Sence some of the games will be coming out before the 360, you will be able to rent them, and have them by launch. So, make sure that you sign up before launch. That is, if your going to sign up at all. Also, like TurkeyRap said, you can pre-rent the game. Kinda like pre-ording a rent, but no money down.

Glock 19 is an unknown quantity at this point

Never used it but know people who have and love the service. I think it is $22 a month it would not be worth it to me, but others it might.

Sounds cool, i just dont think it would be my thing, i useually have my mind made up before a game comes out as to if i want it, so i just buy it if i think its somthing ill like, ill keep it. Prob cause im a little more casual, for hardcore im sure its great!
