To whom it may concern,
As of now, I plan to cancel my account before the next billing cycle. I signed up for the free 10 day trial and had intended on keeping the service around for a while (as evidenced by my having several games in my "Q"). However, I sent a game back to you guys (splinter cell pandora tomorrow) last wednesday, July 7th, and it has not yet showed up on your end. If it was lost in the mail, I would have no problem, but on wednesday the 14th, I reported it as not having returned on your end. The part that upsets me is that it has been two days since I reported the problem and my account has not been updated and I have not yet been sent another game.
I'm sorry to say that I am disappointed with your service and in addition to cancelling my account before my card is charged again, I will be recommending that people avoid gamefly.com due to poor service and turnaround time.
Best regards,
Brad Fellows

dual core Prescott lol
dual core Athlon64/Opteron
POWER5-Lite/PowerPC 980
Now, this place is full of the x86 talks.. so I shall focus in on what POWER5-lite might look like...

so far I think I like the cast, and the setup seems decent enough, but did they really need another super-powerful alien race that exploits humans and treats them like cattle?
the x300 or x600 or smthn else?

How's this for a unsupported but interesting rumor: Nintendo, in an effort to draw in the bargain hunters during this overcrowded holiday season, is going drop the price of their games across the board to $39.99 Canadian ($29.99 US ), including upcoming release such as Metroid Prime 2 & Paper Mario 2.

This is a pretty flimsy rumor, but not a shoddy idea- and Nintendo can certainly afford it, since they're still turning a profit on Gamecubes even at the lowered price.
