Rent Playstation 3 Games
Online video game rental is relatively a new service provided to home users. Through the internet subscribers are able to select and request for titles available on the online video game store’s website. Online video rental services have evolved from onsite or “brick and mortar” DVD and VCR movie rental services which have existed for years. Conventional Video stores like Blockbuster now offer video games for renting.
When it comes to the field of movie and video game renting services, gamefly.com is the leading service provider boasting a collection of titles in all major gaming platforms including the Sony Playstation, PS 2, Playstation 3 and PSP consoles and other minor platforms like Xbox 360, Xbox, and the Nintendo Wii, GameCube, DS and Game Boy Advance. The online store has in its stock at least 6000 titles in all platforms.
The various Playstation platforms are the most popular with around 45% of the customers opting for games supported by these platforms. The newest and far most advanced of these series of gaming consoles is the Playstation 3 which was released in 2006. This means that the newest games released on the Playstation Platform are most likely Playstation 3 games. The Playstation 3 games are thus the benchmark to be used to judge the popularity of video games currently being rented.
As of 12th December 2008 survey shows that the most popular games (using the Playstation 3 games as a baseline) are as follows:
Prince of Persia: This is an action-adventure video game. The game is set in a land rooted in ancient Persian mythology and follows the adventures of the prince.
Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots: This is a stealth third person action game. The story is set in 2014 and portrays a world where mercenary companies have effectively replaced the Armed Forces, fighting private wars for money
Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe: This is a crossover fighting game. It contains fighters from the Mortal Kombat Series like Scorpion, Liu Kang and Raiden fighting against DC Comics superheroes like Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman.
Call of Duty: World at War: This is a first-person shooter video game. The game is set during World War II in the Pacific and Eastern Europe involving with battles involving the United States, Japan and Nazi Germany.
Grand Theft Auto IV: This is a sandbox-style action-adventure video game. It follows the life Niko Bellic, gangster who is entangled in a world of organized crime and corruption
Most online video game rental stores mostly stock Playstation games as these have the widest range of suppliers in terms of game developers and distributors and customers. New releases are therefore more likely than not to be Playstation 3 compatible as playstation 3s are capable of reading all other playstation games. Classic and rare games are also much easier to find in their playstation formats than in any other platform through the various game rental stores. This is because the other major consoles like the X-Boxes were unheard of eight years ago. Wii for instance is only two years old.
