New this week.

March 8th, 2007 by xamount

It’s still Thursday, right? Cause we got some new games for you to play.

And sure, Freespace 2 is in there — but don’t miss this week’s The Best of GameTap: Best of the 70s and 80s. After all, the only other time I see Kaboom! and Strider in the same ring is when I hit up my personal playlists.

New games:

  • Forgotten Worlds
  • Freespace 2
  • Space Interceptor: Project Freedom
  • Space Invaders DX
  • X2: The Threat

New on GameTap TV:

  • Quick Hit: Mastodon
  • GameTap News: Lord of the Rings Online
  • Sealab 2021: Brainswitch

    Nice surprise with X2! :)

    I never got around to purchasing it, though I always meant to…

  2. phorteetoo Says:

    Oh, and Alpha Centauri AND Laser Squad Nemesis on the coming soon list.

    March is a good month. :)

    Is there a hidden game? The game count went up by 6. A hint would be nice. I looked through the entire search ring and found nothing. If I didn’t already own X2 this would be the best week since I joined.

    I noticed that Space Empires 3 didn’t actually go live today like it was scheduled. Was there a problem with it? Did it have something to do with the delay?

    Just curious, more than anything. The big surprise with X2 is awesome, more than outweighs the delay of a game I was only marginally curious about. ;)

    Space Empires III has been scheduled for the 15th since it showed up, hasn’t it?

  6. batzradio Says:

    Yeah, both Space Empires games said 3/15 when they showed up last week. I think they’re splitting it into Space Action and Space Strategy here. Which is just fine with me. :D

    Mmm, Freespace. And an episode of Sealab that’s all too familiar to anyone who hangs around with MMOers, but isn’t one themselves.

  8. J Arcane Says:

    Space Empires IV was scheduled for the 15th, SE3 was scheduled for the 8th.

  9. macnbc Says:

    I’m pretty sure both III and IV were scheduled for the 15th, as I wrote down the coming soon list for a Gametap post I’m maintaining over at the Myst Online forums, and I never had SE3 listed for today.

    Is Arkanoid going to return?

  11. batzradio Says:

    Legolas:

    I’m sorta secretly hoping they eventually throw their hands up on the C-64 port (even though it does have great music) and go for the Arcade version.

  12. Slack3r78 Says:

    Alpha Centauri? I may never see daylight again. Having lost my copy of that game was a blessing in disguise.

  13. Yaos Says:

    Has anybody figured out what the 844th game is? The count should be 843.

    GameTap is working much better on Vista now, thanks for all of your hard work! :D

    Also, if I might add a suggestion for the hearing impaired such as myself… might you be considering subtitles for GameTap TV? I’m enjoying the episodes on there but turning up the volume only helps to a certain degree. That would be an enormous boon to my ability to enjoy the services, along with all others with equal impairment.
