This Week in Game Tap
Still not satisfied with what you're getting on the Virtual Console and Xbox Live Arcade? Then maybe you should head on over to
GameTap! With more than 100 free games currently available, GameTap is one of the best places to play classic games! And every week they are adding brand new titles to the service, including old school games for the Genesis, Neo Geo, Commodore 64 and much, much more. Won't you join us as we take a look at what's going on this week over at
GameTap!
So it's the New Year and we've been thinking about new ways to add some excitement to our This Week in GameTap section. I'll be the first to admit that the blurb has gotten a bit stale, mostly with me just giving you one boring synopsis after another. Part of the problem is that GameTap isn't giving me anything interesting to talk about, but another problem is that I just didn't know what to do with this section. But it's 2009, and that can only mean that I've come up with a brand new way to preview this week's GameTap releases. I've decided to discuss all of the non-retro releases by using haiku poetry. That's right; we're going to bust the five, seven, five in this joint.
This week both paying subscribers and freeloaders have something to get excited about. Up first we have the non-paying members getting the PC action game, Total Overdose. Gold Members, on the other hand, get Syberia and Zombie Shooter. Let's learn more about them in haiku form.
Total Overdose (Free)
Mexican Max Payne.
Only without all the style.
Too short and easy.
Syberia
Stunning adventure.
Strong female lead character.
Well worth checking out.
Zombie Shooter
Like House of the Dead?
Or like Resident Evil?
You can do better.
