Anyone remember the name of this PC game service?

Back around 2002 (before the existance of Onlive or Gaikai), I remember subscribing to a PC game rental service but I don't remember the name. The service probably doesn't exist anymore but you pay $20 a month and you get unlimited access to rent PC games from a huge catalog.

Basically, you download core game files into your PC about 100-500MB in size. Then the rest of the files are "streamed into your computer" so you didn't have to have a physical copy of a CD or disc to play your games.

Does anyone remember the name?

My first thought was Kali, but that was just a multiplayer matching network IIRC, not a distribution service. The only "rental" service I can think of is GameTap, but Wikipedia says they didn't start until 2005.

Totally sounds like Gametap. I miss it.

Could be Gamefly, they started in early 2000's if I remember correctly. They might have been only for consoles though.

Yeah, I think they were console only up until like a year or so ago.
