    I've been trying to find a decent game rental site online, but the only ones i've found have been UK based ones that don't ship to Ireland. If you don't know what i'm on about, head to swapgame.co.uk and have a look.

    So bascially, all i need to know is if anyone can recommend a decent online rental service for games (mainly '360/PS2) in ireland.

    That's all...thanks. :)

    My main problem with these would be trusting An Post to actually deliver them. They're so dodgy that I reckon it would only be a matter of time before stuff goes missing.

    Can't say I'd recommend them, especially not if you're looking to rent games, I found they rarely had stuff in and just send movies I had waaay down on my list.

    Yeah the problem with renting games online is that people can return them whenever they want and unlike dvds they will probably hold on to them alot longer. So you're likely to be waiting a while to get what you want.

    Yeah, i've checked them out already...but their game selection is ridiculous to be honest. They don't even have Gears yet...it's listed in 'Coming Soon'. Whereas Alan Wake is already in the 'to Rent' section.

    Anyway, thanks for the replies, but it looks like i'm severely boned.

    I'd be very impressed if they delivered that:)
