Angled Whiteboards

One of the fun parts of our job is keeping up with all the Internet GameTap chatter. We’ve stumbled across a number of reviews (or rants!) that inspire us, give us new enhancement ideas, or even point us in the direction of fun games in our catalog (with over 700 games and growing, there are bound to be a few gems we haven’t played). So in the vein of that last review dinah linked up, we’re starting a regular series pointing out some of the things the community is saying about GameTap, our games, etc.

From the last week:

• batzradio kicks off a helpful GameTap megathread on the Something Awful forums.
• roushimsx follows up and lists three games that immediately jumped to the top of my to-play pile. Dude knows how to sell a game.
• Eleri talks about the importance of Myst Online: Uru Live.
• dystopia productions knows how to prioritize his life and budget.
• Orlando’s digging Second Sight and has over 200 favorites!
• David Ginn is eagerly anticipating Myst Online: Uru Live’s international launch.
• Christian sussed out one of our untranslated Japanese Mega Drive Games (and successfully talked me into giving it a shot).
• Hoosier Hunter is giving Andi and fam the gift of a year’s subscription. Very nice!

And a couple of slightly older reviews:

• bapenguin gives us a nice thumbs up. This last release should address his desire to see recent games across multiple sessions.
• Julian “rabbit” Murdoch tells the story of the perfect GameTap experience. This write-up lit the halls over here — it completely nails what we’re aiming for.

(See a conversation about GameTap happening out there in the wild? Have we missed anything in the last week? Let us know!)
