In honor of its first birthday, GameTap, the first-of-its-kind broadband entertainment network from Turner Broadcasting System, Inc. (TBS, Inc.), is bringing new opportunity to the gaming community with the formation of the “GameTap Original” label. Through this new initiative, GameTap will continue what it started with the introduction of “Sam & Max” and “Myst Online: Uru Live” and partner with more independent developers and publishers to bring innovative new video game titles to fans.
Sounds a lot like what Steam already does, but the more the merrier. I am not a fan of Gametap per se, but they’ve come a long way since the initial launch. If you are interested in giving the service a shot, they pass along word that they have a limited b-day deal that offers the service for $60 a year, as opposed to the usual $9.99 a month.
