bockchow Posted October 20, 2004 Share Posted October 20, 2004 they are also going to let you use those 2 rentals for video games, not sure if this has gone into effect yet though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RossMAN Posted October 20, 2004 Share Posted October 20, 2004 Is anyone else disappointed in Blockbuster's limited video game selection? Particularly GameCube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mugs Posted October 20, 2004 Share Posted October 20, 2004 Is anyone else disappointed in Blockbuster's limited video game selection? Particularly GameCube.I'm disappointed in Blockbuster's website telling me that several stores in my area have West Wing Season 2 on DVD, when in fact none of them have it. I gotta reactivate my Netflix account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linh Posted October 22, 2004 Share Posted October 22, 2004 blockbuster was too slow for me. I guess netflix spoiled me w/ their distribution center down the road :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobbyDouglas Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 If you honestly rent movies a lot, Blockbuster is a lot better if you signup for their instore deal. $17.95 for the first month, then $24.95 for each additional month. Up to 3 movies out at a time, but you can watch 3, goto blockbuster, grab 3 more, and repeat. Blockbuster is about 2 minutes from my house, for me, this would be a HOT deal.

Blue Kitty Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 Blockbuster They are also offering Shrek DVD when you sign up. I think you have to pay for the first month not really sure. Didn't really have time to read all the fine print. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bockchow Posted November 8, 2004 Share Posted November 8, 2004 ya if you sign up for the dvd promotion you don't get the free rwo weeks but thats still a better deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
venerdinero Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 I was told that those prices for Blockbuster were only for 2 movies at a time, not 3 - that was supposed to cost even more!! Hollywood Video is cheaper - I believe it's $14.99/month for 2videos($9.99/month 90day trial) BUT!! Hollywood is ONLY for movies (sorry no games) and movies must be back within 5 days. I was NOT told about the free DVD or the 2 free rentals! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossMAN Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 venerdinero, Blockbuster is making a $700 million (?) bid to takeover Hollywood Video, that would be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried Netflix & wife & kids wanted to rent movies "now", so we ended up doing online & B&M both, and gat nailed with a late fee seemed like every month...

Lorizh Posted November 24, 2004 Share Posted November 24, 2004 Instore it's $30 per month for three at a time, 2 at a time is $25 bucks a month and no games. I did the Blockbuster online and have been very happy with it. They started out slow but now they are sending them like gangbusters and you get two free rentals instore a month and that includes games, well worth it for me. Rossman, I agree on the game selection, VERY slim! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
