GAME TAP – Hit it, or quit it?

A few months ago while burning the midnight oil, I decided to check out Ted Turner owned subscription based game service GAME TAP.

At first glance I thought, “yeah rite! Another game site where they charge you a fairly low fee and give you access to crap no one wants to play”. WRONG! After downloading the free player it took me to a free games category where I found Tomb Raider Legend. Needless to say the addiction had a stranglehold on me. The game downloaded fairly quick and easy using a Comcast cable modem (about 1 hr. 15 mins.) with easy to read and understand user menus and prompts.

Last time I checked Game Tap had Nearly 1000 game titles to choose from and the list is growing.

I purchased Game Tap’s 1-month trial for 99 cents and upgraded to their gold package after the trial for $7.99 per month with the option to purchase the service for an entire year for about 70 bucks

Customer service is great also. I experienced a problem with a game called Rogue Trooper late one night and called tech support as a last ditch effort, and Game Tap’s tech guided me through a few menus, a spot on msconfig, a reboot and everything was pimpin’!

If you’re an avid gamer like me I highly recommend this service.
