During the summer, when Netflix decided to split its streaming and by-mail services, the company also announced it would begin renting video games.
Earlier this month, however, Netflix cancelled its decision and left the gaming rental addition up in the air.
CEO Reed Hastings says the company is still undecided:

We have yet to decide whether or not to offer video game discs. The decision will have little financial impact either way.

Originally, the CEO had said: "Members have been asking for video games for many years, and now that DVD by mail has its own team, we are finally getting it done."
