GameFly which is a tad pricier at $15.95/month for one game and $22.95/month for two games has a bit better turnaround. I was still a customer when Bioshock 2 came out and I received it in the mail the week it came out.However, this was an exception compared to past games, which had been at the top of my queue and did not arrive well until a month or two after.
Games by mail is not Netflix by any means. Each game in the mail company has a limited supply and an overdemand for the latest games. Contrary, Netflix (now with the streaming) does not run into the same issues because most of their customers are movie hounds who will not bitch over not getting the latest release, instead settling for one of the many thousands of older movies.
Honestly, I just don't believe a service like GameFly will ever be able to meet demand. Too much demand coupled with individuals holding onto the latest games for months on end severely limits their ability to meet their demand at an acceptable rate. This is the chief reason why I quit GameFly after 4 months. I kept on getting crappy filler games I placed at the bottom of my queue at a rate of 8 times out of 10 when I went to check my mailbox.
