Game rental programs?

Anyone here ever have experience with these Netflix-like programs?

The most important factors to me are quality, variety, and availabilty of titles and speed of shipment. I own all three major consoles and a GBA SP, but doubt I'd rent SP games.

Seems like I heard of Red Octane first, but Gamefly has had many print and TV ads lately. . .

I'd love to hear some feedback from anyone who has dealt with either company or hear about another company that might do the same thing. . . but better!

Each system has exclusive games that I enjoy, Sony has had the EA Sports lineup online exclusively up until the recent announcement, and MS has Xbox Live.

Yes, I know about Warp Pipe for the 'Cube, but it's not the same as playing Madden or NCAA football online or playing Project Gotham 2 or Pandora Tomorrow on Live.

EDIT: spelling error. . . *sigh*
 
I own all 3 consoles, and Gamefly was a great service. I recently cancled because there were no more games that I wanted to rent. I'll probably sign up again in like 6 months.


Oh, and to answer RaiseUp's question. I own all 3 becuase they are super cheap. Spent like 450 total on all 3. Thats nothing compared to computer money.
 
I used GameFly for about 6 months and loved it. Never had a problem with a game not working. Always recieved my game and shipped out a new one in under a day.
