Hopefully, I should have Sengoku Basara, ModNation Racers and Fallout: New Vegas within like a week or so, since I took advantage of the Amazon B2G1F deal this week.

The games I buy aren't solely bought just for platinums. I buy them because I know I will love playing them to death; the platinum is just a bonus :P

Something I noticed is since renting games from lovefilm I'm spending less time on games I own, I've not played SSFIV anywhere near as much as SFIV even though I like it more. My playtime on RE5 Versus mode dropped a lot too, as well as some other games.
I've also bought a bunch of PSN games and not played them either fully or in some cases at all due to time, I got Dragon Age Ultimate Edition over a week ago and its still in its wrapping (though to be fair I've sunk a lot of time into New Vegas which I got only a week before it).
I think what it is, since I get 4 games allowed per month I try and burn through the rentals in order to make use of all 4 since left overs do not carry over to the next month.
I'm going to stop doing it though, I realised what I was doing a few weeks ago, even though I'm done with Mafia II I've kept it at home just so I do not get any new games sent to me. Thinking I might rent some movies with the slots instead so I can let myself enjoy the games I buy better.
Cammy getting a catsuit alt in SSFIV in 2 weeks may have influenced this slightly. |
I cancelled my gamefly subscription for that very reason, had a ton of games just sitting on my shelf unplayed and was still buying new games at full price and they sat there. I guess i wanted to make sure i got my monies worth from my rental service but wasnt getting my monies worth on new games in the end
@KylieDog & Draven26
Yeah I've cancelled my gamefly for the same reason too. I was either rushing or wasting rentals with nothing out that I wanted to play. And games I bought didn't get as much playtime.
Plus its ridiculous how good the deals are through amazon now. A brand new game basically costs $40 because there usually is a $20 gift card with a pre-order. I even just traded in Medal of Honor back to amazon for $40. Basically that game was free for me to own for a month. Cost me $0... no shipping, no tax.

I may have to trim down my Gamefly to only games I really want to play, but would never buy because of their price. As it stands right now, there are like 45 games or so on my list, but there are quite a few games on there just for trophies. I don't think I'll cancel it yet, because the service gives me some quick, fun games to play through in between my long, grind-heavy games.

I've had the same 2 gamefly rentals for the last 6 months...( one of them I have yet to even put in the PS3..)
Not efficient at all in term of savings...
basically I paid 120$ ( 20$ *6) to keep 2 games for 6 months and both of those sell for 15$ each used...
And despite not getting my money worth on that I still have a few games I bought wrapped in their plastic ( Borderlands and Heavy Rain...).
I blame Madden 11 and NBA2K11......
