Free Games – Gametap Revisited
I wrote an article in early 2008 about GameTap.com to let people know about this free game platform. I didn’t realise how popular this article was going to be, it gets large percentage of the hits on my site. I decided it was time to do a follow up article.
Firstly, the paid for service from GameTap does not seem like a good deal to me at all. It is $50 for a years access to all their titles. If this included games from the past 2 years, then I would say this wasn’t a bad deal…but this is not the case. Some of the titles available to the premium subscriber are:
- Civilization IV
- Puzzle Quest
- Fallout 2
- Supreme Commander
- Farcry (Great game, but old)
- Race Driver: GRID (This game is actually pretty recent, and brilliant!)
If these games get you excited, then maybe the $50 is cheap to be able to play all tese titles (there are a load more too!)

But, if free games are your thing, then check out the list below. As with my previous article, I won’t list ALL the games available on GameTap, so you can have a surprise when you see some of your old favourites. Some of the new games that I have noticed are:
- Soul Reaver 2
- Street Fighter 2: The New Challengers (This game contributed much to my wasted youth!)
- Final Fight
- Karate Champ
- King of Fighters 96
- Joust, Burger Time, Defender (Great NES games)
To get access to these, head over to GameTap.com.
