Encore Inc, a game publisher that has the Hoyle, Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy! and Diner Dash brands under its corporate umbrella is launching a new website and willing to give away some Xbox 360’s to promote it. On December 20th, Encore’s newest retail site
www.KingofCheapGames.com will launch and will feature PC and Mac games at $9.99 or less pimped by their “King of Cheap Games”. After looking at the current site and some of Encore’s other retail sites, it appears that physical media (i.e. shipped boxes and discs) will be the primary sales option, but it doesn’t specifically say whether or not they will support digital distribution.
