Editor's Verdict:

Swapgame.com is a brilliant website, dedicated to the providing of quality console games for rental and for sale at excellent prices. As soon as your eyes look upon the retro color scheme and simple tabbed layout, you immediately realize that meeting all of your gaming needs may not be a difficult task after all.

SwapGame offers a massive range of console titles, more than many of the other dedicated game-rental sites out there. With over 6000 game console titles to choose from, there is no need for you to wonder whether they have the game you want, because they probably do. Swapgame.com caters for not only most of the current consoles, but even for the brand-new next-gen consoles. They have an impressive range of titles for the Playstation 3, Xbox360 and the Wii, as well as for the PS2, Xbox, Gamecube, DS, PSP and even Gameboy Advanced, so no sacrifices need be made if you want to play the most current games, slightly 'outdated' games, or just play on the move from your portable device.

Like many of the other game-rental websites, SwapGame uses the simple list format. You choose the games that you want to play as you browse through the site, and they are automatically added to your play list. Depending on what package you have, the number that you are allowed to rent at any one time will be chosen from your list and sent to you. Once you receive your games, you can then keep them for as long as you like, but if you get bored of them, you just need to put them in the pre-paid mailer and send them back. Once they have been received by swapgame.com, the next batch of games will automatically be mailed to you.

SwapGame are constantly adding new titles to their collection, meaning you can stay completely up-to-date and have access to the newest games as soon as they hit the shelves. The website also has a section that shows not only what games have recently been released, but also games that are Coming soon, so you can get yourself ready to list them for their release day!

One of our favorite things about swapgame.com is how they have seamlessly integrated the game rental service with the game sale service. The massive majority of games on the site can bought as well as rented. When you've rented a title, and find that you really enjoy the game, but don't want to let it go, you have the option to purchase the game, usually for greatly reduced costs... up to 50% off the retail price! It's simple too, you just need to go to your play list in the member section, click "keep it", and it's yours! Swapgame.com will automatically remove that title from your play list and send out a new title, as well as send you the original case and game manual for the game you just bought after debiting your card. Simple, huh?

Because the majority of SwapGame's titles are pre-played, you can get great discounts in their member store, where you can find brilliant deals on pre-played video games with up to 50% off retail prices. You might be a little skeptical about pre-played and used games, but all the titles that SwapGame offer in their store are professionally cleaned and polished, and provided with brand new packaging and manuals, so you really cannot tell the difference.

Another unique feature of Swapgame.com is their affiliation to the iPoint reward scheme, the UK's leading online loyalty programme, which rewards you for renting and purchasing games at SwapGame.com. By joining the ipoints programme at ipoints.co.uk, after signing up with SwapGame, you can earn up to 200 ipoints each month you are a paying subscriber. You earn 10 points for every £1 you spend in the online store, and get bonus subscriber points in your first month.

For example, if you signed up for the SG1 deal (that's the £9.99 per month package) you would earn 300 ipoints for the first month of the subscription, and 100 ipoints per month thereafter, but if you sign up for the SG3 deal (the £19.99 per month package) you earn a whopping 500 points in your first month, and 200 ipoints per month thereafter.

Ok, so you manage to accumulate all these points... what now? On ipoints.co.uk you can spend the points you've earned from SwapGame on a multitude of free gifts, from CDs and DVDs to adventure weekends over land, sea and air, racing sports cars and flying in fighter jets. Not bad for a few hours playing video games.

Swapgame.com is a great value for money website providing a massive selection of games for rental, and amazing prices in their member store. This is a website for games enthusiasts who don't just want to rent games, but also keep them too, and SwapGame provides an excellent try before you buy service.
