Direct2Drive merges with Gamefly

Not offering some of the games until later on (which who knows if that will actually happen at all), and not offering the Prima guides at all is not a good way to start out a new business relationship with the gamers whom used Direct2Drive before. In fact, isn’t it kind of normal when companies do mergers like this to provide better more options than before? What about the hardcore/longtime users, who may not have the hard drive space to download everything they had on Direct2Drive? This whole thing seems just a bit ridiculous. Not that it makes a big difference to me, I haven’t used Direct2Drive in about 2 years and I cancelled Gamefly a few months ago too when my employer, DISH, released the Blockbuster Movie Pass. It’s just simply better than Gamefly. I get the games by mail the same as I did with Gamefly, but I can also get movies by mail, take them in for in-store exchanges, and I get unlimited streaming, as well as a bunch of movie channels, all in the same package for $10 a month.
