GameFly Digital

Sadly, Gamefly has had to neglect PC gamers for practical piracy reasons, but the upcoming service aims to make amends to that gaming market. The new digital client’s main feature will allow subscribers to download and play as many of the 1,500 and ever-growing library of Mac and PC titles as they desire.

“It’s kind of like a Spotify or Rhapsody or a Napster,” Gamefly co-founder Sean Spector told Game Hunters. “You have access to the content as long as you are a subscriber, but when you are no longer a member, the content then disappears.”

Alongside the unlimited play, the new service will allow subscribers to conveniently download digitally or order by mail, pre-order upcoming console and PC releases or purchase game titles. Also, users will have access to a game organizer, gaming headlines and a social component allowing discussion and sharing of collections with other users.

The closed beta will be launched in Los Angeles on September 8, 2011; beta codes will be handed out at the event. Further information and a beta invite can be obtained from the website.

not that I play video games at all so this really doesn't concern me, but they are literally going to post their library of games online and you can play any of them anytime you want??? Why would you ever buy another game?

They aren't putting brand new games in the Unlimited Play from what I understand...just old hits I guess..

I seen Saints Row 2, some Splinter Cell, and a Assassin's Creed game in Unlimited area..then like a bunch of games I've never heard of lol.

    • I read that Pittsburgh is a possibility.  I think of college QB studs who had some form of mental quirk yet tons of talent--but their issue made being a team leader difficult and it led to their demise--going back:  Jamarcus Russell, Art Schlichter, Jeff George, etc. I think people forget that the QB must not only have talent, but they must lead.  
    • I wish I knew more details, but the NIL money to 20-year olds combined with easy access to gambling sites is a side effect that these kids may not have considered.  To your point,A famous 2009 Sports Illustrated article titled “How (and Why) Athletes Go Broke” estimated that 78% of retired NFL players go bankrupt or face significant financial stress within two years of leaving the league.  I am guessing that ego and $$$ and the thrill of competition (most pro athletes love competition because they are the winners) makes it a powerful temptation.  Throw in the ease of gambling on your phone which is always in your hand, and I see your point x 10.
    • Freeling got some reps at RT when they gave Moton a rest day--I sorta hope Freeling gets brought along slowly as you describe.  It would be better for him for reasons you provide.  We have a really good problem.
