So after seeing all these new titles launching for Xbox 360 that I want to play (Splinter Cell: Conviction, Mass Effect 2, etc) I thought about saving me some money and renting them instead.

In the US, I know there's GameFly, which works great. Here in NZ, I've found two: GameKingdom and Gamehog.

Both have the standard 2-week free trial, but after signing up to both I decided to cancel Gamehog for two things:

- They outright charged to my credit card $30 without anything being disclosed in their terms upong signing up.
- They did not have Splinter Cell listed in the upcoming section. As a matter of fact, they didn't have anything listed. 

Gamehog's website is better designed, but the above put me off straight away.

GameKingdom's website, on the other hand, is not as well put together, but they listed upcoming games and charged only a verification fee to my card of $1, which I was expecting. Trouble is, it's been a week and no games have been shipped from my queue, and they DO appear as available.

Really troubling to see this business model has not been applied successfully in NZ yet, it seems.

Has anyone had any experience with any of these companies (good or bad)?
