Review of Games Frenzy Game Rental
STOP PRESS! Get 3 months for the price of 2 when you sign up for 2 games per month.
WITH all the main game console platforms supported, including Xbox 360, PS3, PSP, Nintendo DS and Wii (and the little-supported Gamecube), whatever your weapon of choice, you'll find games to suit at the newly redesigned GamesFrenzy games rental.
Every next gen title
With an ever increasing range of titles - rising to 2000 at last count - GamesFrenzy boasts that their catalogue of games includes every single Next Gen title. Our investigations reveal that they may well be telling the truth.
While the GamesFrenzy games rental service is guilty of sometimes falling short on providing games at the top of the queue, GamesFrenzy still offer an excellent and reliable games rental service.
Fast turnaround of games
The turnaround of GamesFrenzy titles is noticeably quicker than some others, probably due to them shipping titles six days a week, instead of five.
We wish all rental companies would follow GamesFrenzy's lead on this!
In our earlier review of GamesFrenzy we lamented the lack of decent game descriptions and no indication of age restrictions, but this has been rectified in GamesFrenzy's newly redesigned site.
Games descriptions are now pleasingly detailed and the age rating of each game is clearly displayed.
The only thing missing is any sort of games rating - whether by users or some form of professional concensus - which would go a ling way to helping decide whether a game is worth renting or not.
A-Z listings
Another of our gripes which has now been rectified was GamesFrenzy's lack of a GamesFrenzy A-Z listing.
GamesFrenzy's newly designed games rental site does now include an A-Z, making it much easier to pin-point the games you know you want. It also allows you to search by genre, via a dropdown menu containing 13 popular games categories (up from 9 on their previous site).
Inspirational categories
A new addition that we love is GamesFrenzy's imaginative 'inspiration' categories which makes choosing a game to rent a lot more fun. The categories include things like 'Scary Stuff!', 'Media Outrage' and 'Tough Enough?'.
If you're going away for a while (or if your rent is in arrears and the bailiffs are knocking!) you can pause your GamesFrenzy games rental account for between 1 to 3 months, so you don't land up paying for games rental while you're sunning your thumbs and relieving your RSI in Cancun.
Loyalty scheme
With GamesFrenzy's excellent loyalty points system, where you get 10% of your games rental subscription fees back in the form of Frenzy Points which you can spend on their heavily discounted ex-rental stock, GamezFrenzy games rental is definitely worth more than a second glance.
GamesFrenzy get two-thumbs up for:
Shipping games on a Saturday as well, speeding up delivery times. Kudos too for their new GamesFrenzy games rental loyalty scheme which effectively gives you back 10% of your subscription to spend on discounted GamesFrenzy ex-rental stock.
