Okay, so the "showdown" has come to an end, well kinda. To put it nicely it was really not a "showdown". I signed up for both Gamerang and Gamefly at the same time, put games on both of myQ's and waited for games to come.
First, when I signed up for Gamerang they had to activate my account through a quite complex process. I waited for almost 2 weeks and my account was still not activated even though they had charged my credit card the day I signed up. They were even starting the payment cycle from that first date, not the date the first game was sent. I tried calling them, leaving messages, emailing them, atleast 20 times and NEVER recieved a response. Pretty much they suck!!! I cancelled my account and filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau to get a refund and guess what......the next day Gamerang called me trying to fix things and blaming it on their billing department (why the Fuck wouldnt you return my call/emails for two weeks you assholes!!!!).
So now to Gamefly, they sent my first two games out the day after I signed up. The first one showed up 7 days after they sent it, and I never recieved my second game (guess it got lost in the mail????). It seems like people in the midwest kinda get screwed on shipping, but I cant wait until they open their distribution center in Texas that will definitly speed up the time. So far Gamefly seems to be the best as far as games and stuff with really NO competition.
So the winner is: Gamefly!!!!
I guess I should have just listened to everybody here and went with Gamefly from the beginning, or sure would have saved me the headache from Gamerang.
