Rent PS2 games online? If you do, you're already part of a growing group for sure. If not, then online game rental is something to look into. It definitely has advantages.

For one, video game rental in the past was a major pain. You got in the car, drove to the video store and maybe even stood in line on a Friday night to get a specific game. Then all to often, you'd find the store copies were already gone. A bit deflated, you picked a different game, and then probably stood in line at the cash register. What a hassle. It was expensive, took time, and you were never really sure if the titles you wanted would even be available. Renting games online solves that problem.

The alternative? Buy your own copy at $40 to $60 a shot. Now that is expensive, and if you weren't sure you already liked the game, it was a gamble. A video game rental service solves that problem as well.

How about buying a game title you absolutely love, but later decide to upgrade your system to get all the latest features. Will the games you bought for the old system work in the new one? Not Likely. If you rent ps2 games online, you don't have to worry about system compatibility. Just order for the game console you have and the problem goes away.

What if you simply want to play more game titles, but can't come up with the money to buy them all? No worries. An online subscription solves that too. Most online services let you play the games you want to try, all for a fixed monthly fee. If you don't like a particular game title, just return it in the mail and get another. In fact, some rental companies provide free shipping both ways, no time limit or late fees, and also have an option to buy any game you can't part with at discount prices.

So it is possible to rent ps2 games with the press of a button. When the game shows up in your mailbox, you get to decide its fate. Play it forever. Play it to make sure you like it and then buy it. Play it until you win. Or return the game after a few minutes if it isn't fun. It's your choice because you can always send for another. That's why online video game rental is rapidly growing in popularity. Even the movie rental giant Blockbuster has announced that a test program for online game rental is underway in the upper northwest. I think that says they're about to give Gamefly some competition, which might even bring the monthly fees down.

If you don't play a lot of games, or can't seem to consistently return the old ones, then game rental programs are probably not for you. The membership fee comes every month, and if you don't rent ps2 games frequently, you simply won't get your money's worth. However, if you're like a growing number of us gamers, then rent your video games online and enjoy!

By the way, there's no problem if you own an Xbox, Xbox 360, Nintento, Gamecube, Wii, PlayStation 3 or others. I'm betting there's a rental service out there that supports it.
