Yes but membership is free. You just have to sign up and put a credit card on file.

2. if i dont have 2 b a member 1st,how much is it 2 rent a game?

I think its $8 a game. You can keep it for around 12 days I think.

3. if i do have 2 b member which membership should i take(premium,golden etc.)

They dont have different memberships last time I checked.

i live in dallas and here its $8.65 for a 5 day rental but there are no late fees so you can keep it as long as you like and they will only slap you with a $2 "re-stocking fee" but after a while they will charge the credit card on your account for the full price of the game but when you return it they will put the money back into your account.

You can't really ask such a question though. Cause different Blockbusters have some different things in different areas. Why are you asking on a Gamespot forum anyways? Just goto Blockbuster! LOL

Maybe you should just call your local Blockbuster, this is off topic.

Website? Don't you have any near you in your city? Just walk in and ask. That's what I did in the mid 90's.

The price in MA at Corporate BB stores is 7.99 or (8.39) after taxes. There ARE late fees. Restocking fees are the same thing just a lesser price and you can have the game a maximum of a month before it sells and they won't take it back. You need an account and a valid CC on it. (coming from an employee):roll: Ask someone else for more info. I'm too lazy to type more.

I would honestly skip blockbuster. I would just go with Gamefly over the internet. You just pay a monthly fee and send the game back through the mail when you're done with it. No restocking fees, or charging you for the full price of the game. Just a simple monthly is all they need. www.gamefly.com

I would recommend Gamefly too, been a member for 9 months now, I've been really happy with them. Saves you a lot of money compared to Blockbuster and they have the back games for the LAST:P generation (PS2, Xbox, GC). I hear there are other "through-the-mail" game rental services with different prices, but I can't say how good they are cuz I've never tried them (And please no one tell me to change, I have no interest in trying something else when I'm happy with what I got... had that problem in another forum, that's why :P ).
