No the title is not a typo, LoveFilm for those not in the UK is an online film rental service. That is, films AND GAMES :O
You see, I was watching Pach-Attack on GameTrailers and the first question of the week was about Gamefly.

Here he talks about it not being worth their while for film rental companies such as Netflix in the US to rent out games but a smaller company called GameFly does exactly that.
But here in the UK we get both services in one place: LoveFilm
First question:
Do you use this service? (Use the poll)
Second question:
Now that you know that you can, will you?
Third question:
If you don't, why not?
A bit more context...
A while ago some life insurance on me matured and I got access to it. First thing I did? Yep, go mental on games. Long story short, I got a warning from my bank and realised I was getting any and all games full price at launch.
Then I found LoveFilm. I pay around £20 a month for unlimited disks (movies or games) and have already made a saving by renting Battlefield: Bad Company 2 and Bioshock 2 plus a bunch of movies instead of buying at launch.
Awesome? I think so.
EDIT: Does all consoles, handheld too, but NOT PC and there are no late fees (silly I didn?t mention that, because that?s why I use it) and they only get annoyed at you keeping it if you stop the subscription
