Im going to rent it first from Gamefly. Only games I buy day 1 are ones that I'm seriously stoked for. Other than that, I rent from Gamefly and buy it from them for like $15 cheaper (even if the game just came out lol). For instance, the Keep It price for Modern Warfare 2 and Assassin's Creed 2 is just $45, and it has free shipping, and you get to play the game while they ship out the box and user manual.

well, that's hit or miss. It's like Netflix, but they only have 4 distribution centers, so you aren't guaranteed to get it within the first few weeks, but its still a possibility. There was one game I rented and got lit like 5 days after its release date. The monthly fee is for renting the games anyway. I think its a good deal. No late fees or anything and when you buy one game or return another, they'll send out the next available game on your list as well. Although I've never used it (or compared prices), they also now accept used games you can sell them
