Who rents 360 consoles?

Does Blockbuster do this? We are planning a lan party and need a few more. I dont have any memberships with any local places so Im not up to date with the console rental scene

**I just went to Blockbusters site and its useless.

I could be wrong but I think blockbuster stopped doing that a few years ago. I know my local one has.

Spoon, traffic around here on a Friday night is usually pretty slow. Why do you keep getting annoyed when you only have a post or two after only 12 hours?

As to your question, mine doesn't rent them.

I dunno, though...

Who's the annoyed one? Gee I thought the " " in my post showed it didnt matter much. I'll try to be even more forgiving seeing as you can somehow pick up on someones mood(incorrectly may I add).

Jon, 6 of them have one. We are shooting for a 10 - 12 person party is why I asked Then we need tons of monitors and VGA adapters I'll start calling around on Monday to get info.

a 5 person is nothing to sneeze at, 3 or 4 people is actually the most fun for me. Our record was 13 and itll take another year or 2 until we can reach such numbers.

Wow... need to check the estrogen level in this thread. Our local BlockBuster and Hollywood does not rent them. Just buy them or pretend to buy them and then try and return them afterward.j/k

LOL

Speaking of... I know some of you guys get together at times, why you dont have Lan parties?. If you have, I didnt know and apologize. If I attended an event, I'd demand a Lan party take place(one where Halo 2 isnt the main game!)

The problem with hosting one so early on in the 360s lifecycle is that all my friends/relatives only have one each right now. A couple years into the xbox life cycle and most of us had 2, if not 3, making it very easy to get other people over who didnt have one. I need to be patient

Good point!

I think having some LAN activities at the next event is going to be something we're shooting for. So save up for next summer so we can all get together. We need some party planners to help us out on this one. Anyone interesting in helping coordinate the First Annual PGL-fest?
