same. I used to rent at blockbuster, but mostly cause my sister worked there and she got 5 free rentals a week, so she would pick up some games for me

my parents had the blockbuster netflix equivalent (the mail u dvds one, not the streaming one) back when there were still blockbusters around; that came with a couple included game rentals a month that i would always use. once they switched over to netflix because the blockbuster closed was the last time i rented a game lol

I rented Mario Party 4 in 2002.

Man. I forgot game rentals existed.

I only rented games as a child when I had limited income and wanted to make sure I'd like the game first. Parents didn't mind covering the rental charge.

Now that I'm older I just blow my wad on whatever sounds interesting (not too much because I'm a LoL-"fag")
