GameTap Going International in Early 2008
An international English-language version of GameTap is planned for release in the "beginning of 2008," GameTap VP of content Ric Sanchez told Shacknews today.
Owned by Turner Broadcasting System, GameTap and its collection of digitally distributed PC games have, thus far, only been available to those within the United States and Canada. Its offerings include nearly a thousand different games, spanning original titles such as Telltale Games' Sam & Max series and American McGee's upcoming Grimm, along with classic PC series like Ultima and Wing Commander and more modern releases from such companies as Codemasters and Eidos. The service also provides a number of old console games via emulation, ranging from Atari 2600 to Saturn and Dreamcast titles.
No further details were provided in regards to the international edition. In the US, a monthly subscription starts at $9.99, with price breaks provided for those that pre-pay in larger increments. A free ad-support edition of GameTap, containing a small selection of its offerings and supported by advertising, was rolled out earlier this year."strange that I have searched the website now for 2 days and still havent found a way to unsubscri..."7 Comments
