Game Boomerang Breaker 2010 | 250 Mb
IF customer service with your online games rental is a priority for you then Boomerang Rentals is definitely worthy of consideration.A number of years old now and getting better by the day, Boomerang Rentals is punching way above its weight and seems to be winning many fans along the way with its strong attention to customer satisfaction, coupled with a clutch of very competitively priced games rental packages
One of the things we felt always detracted from the rental experience at Boomerang was it's slightly clunky design and a drop-down menu system that was awkward and didn't always work.
We're thrilled to see a new design in place which looks the business and seems to get slicker by the day.
Having said that, the site does look smashing and while the awkward drop down menus remain, they work crisply and consistently making the process of browsing and/or finding a title easy.
All games now include user ratings along with detailed descriptions and some great in-game screen shots which are worth their weight in gold.
And it's not just the design that's got an overhaul: a traffic light system reflects the demand for each individual title.
A green light means your chances of getting the title first go are high, an amber light warns you not to get your hopes up, whilst a red light means you shouldn't send out invitations for a gaming party for that title just yet, as the chances of it turning up through the letterbox tomorrow are narrow.
Turnaround of Boomerang's games is pleasingly swift, but the availability of in-demand titles could use attention, especially on the popular consoles like X-Box 360.
Having said that, Boomerang Rental's claim that during the first quarter of 2006, 91% of Boomerang Games Rental customers regularly receive games in their top three choices. Four years on, we'd be interested to see whether that figure still holds today.
For occasional gamers, Boomerang Rental's low-end Boomerang Value Package which limits you to two games rentals per month but won't crunch your wallet is a good option, while for those who want their games in a rush, the premium Boomerang Unlimited Priority package ensures that you are always front of the queue for popular titles (users of Boomerang's standard 2-disc package may have to wait).
The ingenuity of this kind of games rental package differentiation should be applauded and our tests of the Boomerang games rental service suggest that title turnaround for less popular games is indeed quite fast.
