Have you ever watched movies on Netflix and wished there was a similar streaming service available for playing games as well? GameFly aims to make this wish a reality
The Xbox Game Pass subscription service has been on a generational roll these last few months, and there really doesn't seem to be an end in sight.
Oblivion Remake
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33
Doom: The Dark Ages
Metaphor: ReFantazio
All of those in just 40 days!
I´m not gonna even mention the upcoming day one games for the rest of the year, because its not even fun anymore.
Gamepass is simply the best thing that happened to gamers!
Even more now with games costing $80+ while economy is in the toilet.
It's funny they used the red ring of death for the thumbnail. People don't think this stuff through.
I'll disagree that this service is worth it. I don't play games as quickly as I used to, so I can still buy games when I want to play them and on a sale and come out on top. Steam also allows me to share my game library with my family. That is worth more in my opinion.
So pick your preference at this point, but I'm still making my way through my game library, and the fact that I can play PS5 games on Steam and Microsoft games on steam and share those games is super cool.
its not xboxs hot streak, its that we've had good games come out lately and ms gave them money to have their hames on the service.
meanwhile, they've been selling like hotcakes on the other platforms.

It must be Christmas in May because The Epic Games Store is in a giving mood.
Gamefly and similar services are far too expensive to really be worth it. Looked into it a while back and couldn't justify the price considering what you get and the limitations.
Its a good service depending how you are with games. Being an ex-subscriber, I received an email on a $1 offer for 2 games our for a month which was awesome. Its great for playing games you arent too sure about buying or just want to play the singleplayer. What I really dont like is that the wait for a game being sent out and the shipments can take awhile which take up your days but of course thats expected of a service like this.
Gamefly is overall a great service in my opinion. I get my games relatively quick and they usually have what I want in stock. As a long time member (off and on) I figured out how to get games a day or two after they launch.
If you put a game in your Q at #1 that you really want before it comes out and you have an open rental spot, you can pretty much get that game every time.
Lately I've gotten Nier: Automata, Mass Effect: Andromeda, Yakuza 0 and Gravity Rush 2 all within a few days of their release.
I'd much rather rent a game I'm unsure about before I buy, been doing this since the late '80's and it's saved me tons of money over the years.
Was a member off and on since 2009. Overall, the service is great, but it has limitations. For me, if they shipped a game on Monday, I wouldn't see it until Thursday. Sometimes there was issues and it would take longer. If you don't have an open Q for new release games, you won't see that game for a while. It also, changed the way I approached games. I found myself always rushing games to beat them. This way I could return it for another asap. Now a days I only have limited time to game, so I discontinued the service. What I'm doing now, is waiting for sales on games and then buying them.
I like gamefly , haven't given thier streaming a try yet . Only issue I have is they closed the distribution center in my area so now the wait is longer than before . Aside from that it's very cool.
