Redbox is having a free game day and free stuff is cool photo

Starting today and lasting until March 1st, Redbox is giving you the chance for a free day of gaming. All you have to do is go to their website and reserve the game you want to play. Keep in mind you will only be getting the first day free, so if you want to hold onto the game longer it will cost you $2 a day. 

This isn't a bad deal, so long as you don't keep the game sitting around for a week or two. Granted the selection is a bit limited, but really, its better than nothing, and Redbox didn't have to do this. A free day of gaming? Yes please.

I'm taking advantage of this by renting Battlefield 3.

This is cool for people that like renting games maybe i'll check it out. Also awesome David Tennant header image. IMO best doctor. Although the new doctor, Matt Smith, also has something special that I really like about him.

Darkness II is worth a rent and you can beat it in a couple evenings.

It looks more like he's lost weight and it makes his nose take on a more pronounced beak appearance.

I love trying out Redbox for a one off rental of a video game I'm curious about. Also, David Tennant is super neat.

Just got Battlefield 3. I didn't know this, but if you reserve something online it will cost a dollar. People may know about this, but I didn't. No big deal though, just sending it out there.

No worries. Looking back I should've typed "Doctor, who?" It would seem punctuation saves lifes.

Having perspective? On a video game website?!

You should be complaining about the crap selection, and demanding better games. That's what 'real' gamers do!

Hope you enjoy single player Battlefield, because the multiplayer unlock will cost you $15... :(

I know. I was think of Saints Row the Third, but I wanted something short so I can beat it in one night. Still sucks though. My review won't be 100% complete. :(

I love Redbox's rentals. Sometimes I just keep it the 60 days and basically buy the game at new retail price.

This is cool. I reserved Twisted Metal. I will try to score a free game rental every day until March 1.

If there's one thing college taught me, its don't complain about free stuff, especially food or videogames.

Wish they had Asura's Wrath, that would have been perfect. Everything that looks good I've already played. Might Get Mario & Sonic just cause it has some Epic Yarn & Galaxy Levels, and I wouldn't want to actually buy the game.

Jedislayer: Yeah I know but I only have time for about 2 hours of gaming a night nowadays (damn work). Plus that game was so gorgeous I found myself walking around and looking at all the art.

Man, terrible, terrible selection on these things. I never understand why people use those things; shit selection and the prices are astronomical. Even the prices to rent from Amazon, Apple, or Sony are better than Redbox.

The battlefield 3 online pass is 10.00, and well worth it.
