Board 8 > How long until games are free to rent in libraries?

(+) Yeah! (+)

free renting of DVD, VHS, and books hasn't destroyed those industries. I wonder when it will spread to games.

Caught siphoning grooves from the local disco.

They already have libraries that rent games for free. My friend who lives in a small-ish town rarely buys games anymore because his local library orders new games all the time that he just rents for free.

Came in to say that most libraries I've been to have them.

Yeah, my library has a lot of videogames and they'll get about any non-M game you request.

Menji - Thanks for supporting the Search By Username petition!
Allen said it's possible it could be included in the next search update.

Never, because digital-only distribution will happen first.

My local library has had games for a long time, now. I remember my brother bringing home Manhunt 2 one time.

Back where I used to live, they had some games, but the selection was very small.

I hope more libraries begin to carry a solid selection of games. It'd be a big help; it's much, much harder to experience a variety of games for cheap/free, compared to music and other mediums.

Hey, you ever coming back?
You kidding? I am Queens Boulevard.

There better be an area that I've been missing all these years because I've never seen my libraries with this. What the hell.

Everywhere I've seen them they are right next to the checkout counter.

Mine doesn't because so many teens steal anything that aren't books from it.

My campus library does this (Urbana-Champaign) as well as the libraries near my hometown (Northern IL).

Sorry AKJ.
