Hi Christopher

Sorry, GameFly is not free and Netflix does not rent games.

I am not aware of any service that rents video games for free. If you find one, let me know!

Mike…The point of this post is that Netflix does NOT rent video games, so I’m not sure how you can say they have been 3x faster for you.

As far as games taking 1 week + for turn around, that is simply not true. GameFly uses a system called “FastReturn”. This is from the GameFly FAQ:

“FastReturn™ is a service, in partnership with the U.S. Postal Service, we developed to improve delivery times to GameFly members.

FastReturn™ will start the processing of your next game as soon as we receive confirmation from the U.S. Postal Service that a game has been returned in the mail. If we receive a valid U.S. Postal Service scan, you will no longer need to wait until we receive the returned game in our warehouse before we send the next available game in your GameQ!”

You will typically receive the next game in your Q in 1 to 3 days….not 1 week +

Netflix has 36 distribution centers, GameFly has 4. Unless you live in the suburbs of one of these centers it will take 1week + for turn around on a game with Gamefly. Netflix has been 3x faster for me.

Netflix maybe great service, but not like GameFly – GameFly have more relevant video games release in time, and they deliver time more faster then netflix.
