At 10am this morning I still hadn't had a game sent off to me (despite them receiving mine on Monday), so I sent them off an email asking what I could do to speed things up, and perhaps they may need to consider more stock if so many games are always out (I've got about 30 games on my rental list). The mail did the trick, as Madden 06 was sent out to me before noon! \o/

Of course, I'll only have it for a day or so before I get the 1000 points (yes, I'm only renting it for the points :/), but it'll still be nice to get another rental out the way

Shame on you! I'd never do such a thing like that. I rented Open Season purely for the family goodness.......honest

You'll have to let me know how that turns out, never played a NFL game before, tried a demo but just didn't understand it

Well, I already own and love Madden 07, so this strictly was an achievement point rental. I've been playing Madden games for as long as they've been out, which is about 13 years or so, so I understand American Footy inside out

I think I've got a Madden game on my rental list, they look interesting and somehow I've never played one. So figured worth a try

Open Season is surprisingly fun

I've heard it's good, it's number 3 on my rental list now, so I may well get it when you send yours back

It's very short but fun. I'm about halfway through already I think
Think my cousins would love this game so might have to rent it again sometime in the summer.

Well I've been reading up on wikipedia about it and think I grasp it, just in the demo there were far too many buttons on screen so I didn't have a clue
