What was the last physical video game you've rented?

I wish I could remember, but I honestly don't think I've rented one since the PS2 days. I was living in Japan last gen, and game rentals are illegal.
I honestly don't remember specifically. Last time I rented a game was during the Gamecube era, which was over a decade ago. I remember renting Amazing Island for the Gamecube back then, but it definitely wasn't the last game I rented.
One of the Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm games off of Gamefly.
I had a hankerin' to play Zabuza and that female Mizukage.

Rented... I honestly don't know since I just did the Gamestop rental program for a while with used games/returning within a week way back when. Once I started working full time way back when I just buy stuff I want now.
Actual rental was probably from my old video store which closed probably in 2005 or 2006? I don't think I ever rented a game from Redbox only a movie like one or two times.

The last one I can recall renting was Amazing Island. I know for sure it was a Gamecube game, because I've never rented a game for any other platform, and I pretty much stopped renting games altogether after 2004.
It was either El Shaddai or Demon's Souls. Had a Family Video at the end of my street at the time but rarely used it since games had started dropping in price very quickly after launch during that time.
The last game rental Marvel vs. Capcom Infinite for the Xbox One.
I beat the story mode, and returned it. I liked the combat system, but that story mode was complete wasted potential.
Honestly, much like that whole game I suppose.
I miss renting games, but the Redbox near me is garbage. The only good games it has I end up buying at a heavily discounted price.

Oh good lord. I haven't rented a game since the 90s.
My local rental store never really upgraded past SNES and Genesis games. They had a few N64 ones, but I didn't have one of those until after they closed.
So I think the last game I rented was either Final Fantasy 5, or Doom on SNES.

Titanfall 2 from a RedBox. Wanted to play the campaign a bit before I purchased it. Liked it so much I bought it the next day.
My last (and only) game rental shouldn't even count as it was my dad who rented it for me, was the Futurama game for PS2. I had it for a weekend and never got past the sewer level (which I'm pretty sure was like the third level)
Donald Duck Lucky Dime Caper when I got the Master System Power Base converter for the Mega Drive.
I'd guess 1991/2?

yep! It was a small video store in my neighborhood that was already dying basically, they barely had anything gaming related and the owner was my friend;
every game he had was kept in a small box under the shelves and I don't think he ever had games for any other console above the PS1 there :p
I was cleaning my basement and going through boxes I never unpacked from moving a couple months ago and found a GameFly sleeve with Fallout New Vegas in it from who knows when, so that I guess lol
I'm genuinely surprised more people aren't renting games. It's such money savings! Redboxes and Gamefly are basically available everywhere in the USA
2015, I rented Star Wars Battlefront because I knew 1000000% I wouldn't want to play it that much, but def wanted to try it out beyond the beta. before that it was easily college, 1999-2003, gamecube games. but 03-2015 none, but I had access to most stuff I wanted to test out to that point.
