50 bucks per month x 12 months = please pass the pipe...

Pass it around...

Download all the games available at fast speeds, no throttling from ISPs, and you can keep them! Plus zero chance of getting a virus.

i thought the point of rentals was that you have to return it after so many days

I doubt that you will ever have to return them, rather they will turn off in set amount of time. If that is the case, hackers only have to figure out how to remove that clock or set it at some ridiculous number.

but i am 100% sure that they can put some special software on there that makes it not run if you have CFW!.. which i hope they do! YES i am one of those that doesn't like piracy!

50 $ is not that much considering that a game almost cost 50$ plus u get to keep the dl games too , now if they make it 30$ then they will have something going on

menoyou6082d ago

this is genius and just what the gaming industry needs. i dont like going to the store or getting it in the mail! ill buy a psp just for this rental service

The idea for a service is great and the pricing is a la Gamefly. $19.99 for 3 a month? Not bad at all.

The only game I want is He-Man after so long I get to enjoy a real He-Man game. Just hope they drop She-Ra and Hordak into the game.
