This Week in GameTap
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!
Hello ... is anybody still left reading this? Nobody? Okay, now that it looks like I'm all by myself, I can pretty much say whatever I want. Every week I use this time to make fun of American McGee's Grimm. I tell you how it has a lot of potential, but never lives up to its promise. I complain about how much I am talking about this terrible game. But I'm not going to do that today. Nope, I've already done enough complaining about American McGee's Grimm (See:
Don't F-ing Buy That Game: A Non-Gamers Guide to Getting the Wrong Gift). So this week I will give the GameTap PR a break and just tell you that you can play the newest episode of Grimm, Cinderella, for 24 hours for free. I can't say I wholeheartedly recommend doing that, but you can do it for free RIGHT NOW. So, why not try it out?
Now that we have that out of the week, I can tell you about the two other Gold level games you paying subscribers can check out starting today. Up first is Lionheart, which sounds really exciting. I would like to believe that it's the 1993 Amiga game, but deep down I know it's actually the 2003 game, Lionheart: Legacy of the Crusader. If an outdated RPG isn't your thing, then maybe you should try Elements of Destruction, which sound even more exciting. I played this game for the Xbox 360 and wasn't very impressed, but maybe this PC game is better. Okay, it's probably not, but at least you aren't playing American McGee's Grimm, right? Damn, I was going to give that game a pass this week. Maybe next week.
