GameFly has a bunch of PS3/360 games on sale photo

GameFly sent me a heads up notice that another one of its crazy used game sales is happening right now. I figured you guys could appreciate some savings as much as any other sane person wrapped up in this expensive hobby.

Keep one thing in mind, though: for the most part, these are videogames that are just cheap enough to warrant putting up with their apparent and numerous flaws. Sure, there are a few gems in here, but for the most part, you're going to get what you pay for.

It's also worth noting you don't have to be a GameFly subscriber -- I'm certainly not. Last time I posted about one of these bargain bin sales, a few of you were skeptical about buying used games from a place that deals in used games on a massive level. So far, I've had nothing but good luck with them.

Alright, we good? With that all out of the way, enjoy the deals: the Xbox 360 line-up is here, and the PlayStation 3 titles are there. And in case the header picture didn't clue you in, I'm totally getting Assault on Dark Athena. Maybe. Probably. It's only $9.99!

I have had a good experience with Gamefly. Been a member about a year and getting great games for cheap(box and manual ftw) is a nice perk to getting to play games I wouldn't pay full price for.

Strongly considering subscribing for gamefly considering the new PS3 single player games - GOW & Heavy Rain. I usually buy games with some re playability, but if they are awesome offline I'll get them too.

I've had great success with Gamefly for the past six months or so (although lately their turn-around time has been unbelievably slow). Every game I've received, whether rented or purchased, has been in prestine shape, and every time I've kept a game the box and manual they've sent me have looked brand new.

There's a few good games in this sale (Red Faction and Riddick are both easily worth those prices), but I doubt I'll be buying any this time around. My daughter is due to be born tomorrow, and she'd probably appreciate having diapers and clothes :)

Congrats! I hope all goes well. My daughter turns one next week. And no, she won't appreciate the diapers or clothes, they're ungrateful little things.

You know for 9.99 Wanted is an alright game. It's only 4 hours long, but they're all pretty entertaining.

As was said, the turnaround is harsh. So much so that I constantly wonder if it's worth the price. That said, I've never received a bad disc, and I can't say the same for netflix. Maybe cuz Blu-rays are bloody indestructible.

Happy early fathers day.

Cowzilla, Ghostbusters is more of a rental. It's only $10, which is pretty damn hard to bitch about, but I didn't feel compelled to touch it again after beating the game. Going through the campaign once is enough to get all the gags and references, and the online modes are kinda shitty. With that said, I did enjoy the game overall, so who knows.

Also, congrats, mrandydixon!

Oh christ, I just saw that they have Blazblue for $25!! It was a whole month after it was released before Gamefly sent me a copy because their supplies were so low. Now they can't get rid of them fast enough!?

Yeah, I'm a GameFly fan, as well. So far, they've treated me very well. I've received most every new title, when released, in my GameQ. Although, sadly, I may be ending my two year relationship with them soon. In an attempt to save a few dollars here and there. Only I've been saying this for months! I can't let go, dammit.
Also, that UFC PS3 game looks like a steal... Is it worth it?

The first half of Dark Athena is awesome. Definitely play that. Then stop. I know you'll want to play the second half of Dark Athena. Don't. Just...stop.

Also, Escape From Butcher Bay is amazing if you've never played it.

Assault on Dark Athena is awesome. I actually enjoyed the second half. The scar gun was actually fun and a nice change of pace, imho. I thought the story was pretty decent, to boot. You can't beat getting 2 very good games in one package for just $9.99. That's a deal and a half. Go for it.

If you like a fun multiplayer experience with a lot of wanton destruction, you could do much worse than Red Faction: Guerilla. 15 bux for a copy of it is insane; why isn't anyone picking this up?

If you bought Darksiders, I forgive you..cuz, you know..you probably got it for free already.
