So today, I am finally going to get my PS3 (about fuckin' time.) Anyways, after bills, the cost of the system and a couple of adult sites that require a credit card, I'm gonna be broke. So I was thinking that getting a blockbuster card would be a good idea because I could play games without dropping 50+ per PS3 game. However, I haven't been inside a blockbuster in five years so I don't know if it would be worth it?
Yay? Nay? Netflicks?
I'd recommend http://www.gamefly.com due to the fact that I don't think netflix does games. Also, gamefly is decently cheap.
Or, you can buy a couple of games, then when you're done, use a site like http://www.goozex.com or http://www.gamefly.com
I've heard Gamefly has a horrible turnaround rate. Games take a week or so at a time, and it's just generally a hassle and not very cost conscious. That's only from what I've heard in recent news, however I don't have any personal problems with them. I'd check if they have a trial period to see if it's worth it first.
This is the article that caught my eye on the subject:

Blockbuster is pretty expensive. It was like $20 for me to rent Falloutboy 3 for 2 rental periods.
I see what you did there...Quote:

It just doesn't feel right when you play CoD or Madden but you don't actually own it and know you have to return it eventually.
As for games on a budget, Orange Box makes a great buy, 20$ with 5 great games.
Also, add me up PSN butnie
