I have been a member of Gameznflix for about a year. The service has been great, but lately their library is not adding new games. My queue is sitting still with most of the games status "on order", and these games were released in mid-May.

I am wondering if I need to jump ship and go to gamefly.com. Gameznflix has better monthly membership costs, but it's not worth the savings if they aren't getting new games.

Does anybody know some inside scoop/status? Are they going to survive?

Well, I usually stick with Gamefly but the service I had with Gameznflix when I tried them was horrible. Even though Gamefly is more expensive, their service for me is amazing and with quick turnarounds. With Gameznflix, I always had games disappear from my Q, then the turnaround was like a week after they received my last game and like you said, the problem of most games being "on order." I don't really see them failing since they do have a lot of members but their service is terrible to me.

Yeah, I had gameznflix too, and hated it. Gamefly is well worth the extra money and I don't watch many movies anyway. And gamenflix dont even have psp games anymore!

lately I havent been too happy with their service. My turn arounds are still fast but games just arnt available like they used to be. I dont think they currently have enough copies to satisfy all their customs considering how it has become much more popular inthe past couple months.

Funny story I have here to add, my best friend had Gameznflix for about 8 months and he had amazing service with them. He then canceled his account with them becase his 360 failed and he wasn't going to play it in awhile. Well, a month went past and he signed back up to them but now, he has terrible service and it takes them like two weeks to ship out new games to him. He is considering going back to Gamefly because of his slow turnarounds.

Also, he doesn't understand how if he puts one game #1 on his list and it shows "ready to ship," he doesn't understand how Gameznflix always goes past that and ships out like his #3 game instead even though his first choice is ready to ship.

gameznflix sucks, it takes them awhile to get new games. and the availablity in the queue sucks that bar is 95 percent full but yet they dont ship it out. i just signed up with gamefly and already they are shipping me call of juarez and tenchu z which are newer titles. i love their queue system
