Try Gamefly cancel anytime.

"I have recently joined gamefly after trying the alternative which is blockbuster (Or dish network). Blockbuster has had much faster shipping times however most of their games are always out of stock for weeks.. Gamefly on the otherhand takes about 4 days to receive your game BUT they have stock in most games even the newer. Full review below!! If you want to try gamefly my link will give you a BOGO (Buy one Month get a month free.. Saves about $6.00 which is normally what their one month trial cost)

Shipping Time: Like mentioned, their shipping time is horribly slow!! About 4 days (Almost 8 if you have to return a game). Much slower than blockbuster but with blockbuster being out of stock on most games for a week (Longer for new games) gamefly is the much better value



Value: At $15 a month there isn't much value unless you rent or buy a lot of newer games. In my situation I have purchased a wii U.. Most games, even used at Amazon, cost $35 USED so if I play one or two games a month and beat them which is what i usually do then there is a lot of value in this program. Also, if you decide to keep the game their "Keep" program offers the game to you for about the same cost as used on Amazon. That is brings the value of this program up a lot!! Rent a game for a day or two. Like it and then click "keep".. Rent a game for a few days at Redbox and see how fast that $2.00 adds up!

Selection: This is where they shine. I have found they have almost all games in stock. This is what caused me to cancel Blockbuster. They NEVER had games and they always had a very long wait.

Overall:
If you rent rather than buy games gamefly is a great value. I cant afford $50 for every game that comes out.. I cant afford $2.00 a night (Or whatever redbox is now) to rent games. I wish they had faster turnaround time but I guess this depends on your location."

What is GameFly?
GameFly provides unlimited video game rentals through a mail-in service. Basically you go to their website choose which video game you want and they mail the game to you. When you are done with the game you send it back in a pre-paid postage envelope they provide. I personally love free shipping on the internet so it was a major bonus that I didn’t have to pay for a game to be shipped to me or for it to be shipped back.
Quality, Selection & Service
GameFly has a huge selection of over 8,000 titles. This pretty much makes them the “Blockbuster of Video Games”. They also have pretty fast delivery times so I wasn’t waiting too long to receive a game, though I live in a downtown area so the mail maybe faster here. I also didn’t have any trouble getting any game I wanted, though I have heard that some people have had to wait to get newer games. A good idea is to book as many games as you can well in advance so you are never waiting for games and are getting your money’s worth.
Price
On average I would say I rented 5 to 6 games a month which if I rented from an actual store would cost almost $40 bucks a month. Game Fly charged me a flat fee of only $8.95 per month for the first month and then charged me $15.95 for each month after. I was kinda pissed about the price increase after a month, but it is still pretty cheap for renting 5 to 6 games in a month. From my math it works out to about $2.50 to $3.50 per game. Compare this to renting a game from the store where it would cost $6 to $7 bucks. This alone saved me 50% in video game rental costs!
Game Consoles Covered
Gamefly has games for every major console currently on the market including: Playstation 3 (PS3), Playstation 2 (PS2), Playstation Portable (PSP), XBox 360, Nintendo Wii, Game Cube, Nintendo DS and Game Boy Advance.
Cancelling GameFly
I haven’t canceled them yet, so I can’t vouch for how they are with cancellations. But from their site they say, you can cancel at anytime and there will be no cancellation fees of any sort.
Should You Get GameFly?
I don’t want this Gamefly review to be overly positive, but if you are renting and buying games on a regular basis and you get sick of games easily, you should definitely try this out because the cost savings and gaming experience are obviously there. The average game cost between $40 and $70 to buy and after you finish it, you probably won’t play it again. By paying $8.95 for the first month and then $15.95 for each month after, in a year you pay $184.40 for unlimited video game rentals -this would be the cost to buy about 3 or 4 games. In my books this is a good deal.
Currently GameFly is offering us a free trial which I highly recommend you try as it will give you an idea of how it works. For more details on GameFly and to try out this special offer see below.
