Giving it another chance...

So a couple of years ago I gave GameFly a chance...it was cool. I used it. It was nice. I didn't keep it. The reason at the time was due to lack of funds. I was working in a crap job, making not much munnies and was fairly miserable. And at the time I thought dumping the then $12 a month to play games that I probably woudln't have enjoyed anyway seemed to be a waste.

But last night as I was roaming around on Ebay to try to find some good ol' PS3 and PS2 games to fill my library with. Two things...First, Ebay is the mother of all sidetrackers. I can search for one thing one moment, and get completely sidetracked and start "shopping" for things I NEVER intended to even bargain for! And second, I'm so tired of people swooping in at the last minute to seelz mah gamz! It happens...a lot.

So why go through all the headache and potential guilty of spending money buying games I may never play more than once? It's a battle I've tried to win but have not. I do that all the time. I have games that I'll buy (most of the time used and cheap) but I'll leave them sitting on my shelf for months. Shame really. So I decided...why not use that money to in turn rent these games, play them for a bit...if they are buy worthy..then go pick them up at my local store or just buy the copy right from GF if they have it available?

All is well. :) I'm sure a lot of you guys already do just that. It just took me a little while to get off my lazy bum and sigh up for GF again ;)
