About Gamefly
GameFly (also known as Gamefly) is an United States online
video game rental subscription service, whose niche is in
providing games for handheld game consoles and game consoles.
Primarily, GameFly is similar to the DVD rental subscription
service Netflix in that games are sent to subscribers via the
United States Postal Service in re-mailable, pre-paid mailers.
(Non-US residents are ineligible for the service, as GameFly
does not ship overseas.) The subscriber then can keep the
games for as long as desired while paying the monthly fee,
although the number of games is limited by the type of
subscription plan chosen by the subscriber. Additionally, the
user can create a queue, known as the "GameQ", of up to 50
games. Upon returning the game to a GameFly distribution
center, GameFly automatically ships out the next game in the "GameQ",
making the process cyclical for as long as the user is a
subscriber and updates his or her "GameQ". Customers typically
expect delivery of their requested games within 2-5 days of
shipment. If the received game disc or cartridge is damaged or
unplayable for some reason, or if the wrong game was received,
the customer can return it for a replacement or have the next
item in their rental queue sent instead.
Subscribers also have the added benefit of buying selected
pre-paid games at a reduced price, should they choose the keep
the game. Subsequently, subscribed users will get the jacket
and instruction booklet for the game mailed to them for free.
Non-subscribers may also buy games, though not at a discounted
price afforded to subscribers.
The caveat is that all this is done online, where the user
must provide a credit card as a form of payment and means of
verification.
Also, retail outlets such as Best Buy offered "pre-paid"
versions of GameFly for new subscribers (where they pay one
month for two months worth of service), and gift certificates
can be sent to friends and family -- although these require
the people receiving the "pre-paid" pack or gift certificate
to furnish a credit card as a means of verification and
incurring future charges.
At launch in September 8, 2002, GameFly boasted 1000 titles
for the Sony PlayStation 2, Microsoft Xbox, Nintendo Gamecube
and the portable handheld console, Nintendo's Gameboy Advance.
On March 21, 2005, GameFly added Sony Playstation Portable (PSP)
games to their offerings. Near the end of April 2005, GameFly
also added UMD movies to their catalog for the PSP.
GameFly does not support older game systems, such as the
Nintendo 64, PlayStation One, or Sega Genesis as of this
writing. Though the service plans to add games for the next
generation consoles -- the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and
Nintendo Revolution -- when they become available.
GameFly does not plan on adding PC games to its catalog, due
to legal issues
GameFly offers three different plants, depending on how many
games are rented at a time. All plans are for unlimited games,
meaning that the user is not charged on a per-game basis, but
on a monthly basis.
1. One game out at a time costs $13.95 per month.
2. Two games out at a time costs $21.95 per month. (This is
the most popular and promoted plan.)
3. The three game out at a time plan, which is only eligible
to users in good standing for a duration of 60 days, costs
$29.95 per month.
Plans are priced using US dollars and sales tax is charged in
most states. |
