BTGames Rental Services Launches TODAY?

[CrazyMadMan]

Anyone have more information around this? I just read up on the prophecy forums:

"There is a once off membership fee of R199 and after that it costs R99 per month for a game. Only one game at a time though."

Anyone know anything else around this? Does it include pc titles?

Not sure how true it is, but it could be very useful....

Lend a game, copy it, give it back

LOL!

No PC games are rented for that very reason. There will be rentals on PS2 Games - R99, Xbox 360 and Wiiiii - R149 and probably PS3 when it comes out if it does.

You can still copy PS2 games you know, you just need the right software and hardware (DVD Writer)

Oh yeah! don't forget your chipped (modded) PS2

It would be useless without that

So do that then. No1 is stopping you.

LOL!!! I'm not such a big criminal, just putting forward a point, the whole rental thing is a good idea, but it's got some floors.

It always feels better to buy originals

originals oshfriginals

At that price you may as well pay the full price and own the game for life

Does seem a bit nuts. I can buy secondhand games for less.

xbox 360 games are R500 therefore its ok
