Never have long lists.
I use this tactic for lovefilm as well as for some reason when i give them choice they just can't seem to choose.
Don't think of others and just think what do you want and what do you deserve.

Treat them like dirt and they will reward you.

And thus my faith in humanity erodes just that little bit more.

I tried being all nice and accommodating with lovefilm for 3 years and never seemed to get films i wanted so i decided I'd had enough of that and wanted to get the service i paid for.
With both services I pay for priority service (with both I pay for a year upfront) and I expect to get stuff on release most of the time.
I've never made a fuss if they haven't sent me anything but so far they have done well and only missed a couple of releases.

Posted my first game back off to Boomerang. (Wolfenstien NO -which was great, btw)

Hopefully everything will go well (got my Post Office receipt just in case it doesn't) and I'll get Marvel Superheroes next.

I posted sniper 3 last week, took them 3 days to receipt it. Since then, some 48 hours later they haven't sent anything. I only have 3 games on my list (not destiny) and I am struggling to get my next title.

The time it takes them to receive it is down to Royal Mail more than them though.

What's the availability of the games on your list too? Are any marked as "In Stock"? If not then you have a wait. 3 games really isn't much on there at all.

All fair points. I was whinging as buff seems to get the games he wants on release. I've wanted wolfenstein for a while now, well, since release.

I used to! I had to wait nearly 3 weeks with nothing for Metro mate!
All the Wii U stuff I want, those never ever change from 'long'. If you miss the launch day, you could potentially be in for a canny wait. I mean, I only snagged Botch Dogs relatively recently, ditto inFamous.
Xbox One games, though, are easy to get. There's literally no wait for most of them.

Furry muff. I should probably add some more, maybe PS3 games, but that will be all I get for a while. Hmph.

Tempted to cancel with destiny coming next week, boomerang has a day or 2 to send something.

I have around 30 titles on my list across a bunch of formats and almost all of them are marked as having a long waiting time. Some of them I'm pretty sure I'm never gonna see as they've been long wait for months now.

People who've had games on L for ages... which package are you on and do you call Boomerang up to ask what's going on with said games?

Posted Wolfenstein off on Wednesday and have had dispatch confirmation for Marvel Superheroes just now. Really looking forward to it (loved the demo), hope it doesn't turn out to be rubbish like Potter 5-7 on Vita.

I'm priority. All of mine are Wii U games, about 5 of them, and Xenoblade Chronicles. I understand XC, because that's pretty much gold dust anyway.
I don't really mind, I always have something else to play. Those points I get for waiting will hopefully add up to something decent.

I doubt it. Posted me wolfenstein on the PS4 today, hopefully arrive tomorrow. A 3 day wait, not too bad considering how few I have on the list.

The points you get for waiting add up to a subscription. 30 days of points gives you a free month. Great system.

They've also recently added the option to put the points towards ex rental purchases too, not sure what the points to pounds ratio is however.

Diablo III is on its way back.

Think I'll get Sniper Elite 3 next. The wait for it is 0-3 days but the only other game on a shorter wait is CoD Ghosts (others being Metro Redux and Warriors Orochi 3 Ultimate) and I don't fancy that. Not after Wolfenstein NO.

Every time I see you type Wolfenstein NO I keep thinking that you're going "Wolfenstein, NO!" and I'm like "Mate what, it's good man."

Sniper Elite 3 arrived today! I think it's a one off but that three day turnaround was LoveFilm like.
