    Game.co.uk Game Collections

    I just wanted to know whether anyone was signed up to this:

    http://ondemand.game.co.uk/MetaGame/offre.jsp

    Is it a good deal?

    Is there anywhere else that does this type of thing?

    Cheers!

    gameplay.com have done it for a while now, same company though

    tbh i dont think so unless you have huge bandwidth limits and play games pretty much 24/7

    I signed up for it to try it out and I was not impressed at all. What they don't tell you upfront is there's a definate bandwidth limit on downloading games! I very quickly managed to hit the cap (roughly 3-4GB) and was left with only one game to play, which would have cost a lot less if I'd gone down the shops and picked it up as a CD.


    Stay well clear!!!
