Just noticed that GameFly has started to get a wee bit annoyed about their rented Xbox 360 games coming back all scratched. According to Gamasutra, the company has started sending out form letters to people who return a damaged Xbox 360 game:

We have received reports that certain XBOX 360 consoles have caused damage to GameFly videogames. Unfortunately, we have been notified that you recently returned a damaged XBOX 360 game.

As a precaution, we have removed all XBOX 360 games from your GameQ. Please contact Microsoft at 1-800-4MY-XBOX. Please do not rent XBOX 360 games until you have resolved this issue.

In the future, should GameFly receive XBOX 360 games from you that have been damaged, you will be charged a replacement fee.

That can't be good, has anyone has similar experiences with other game rental services?
