GameTap Thursday: Tryptophan coma

As for new game releases this week the entire industry seems to be in a tryptophan induced coma and GameTap is no exception. It's a quiet week for anything new in general. The new titles this week on the service are probably titles that a majority of people haven't heard of before and it won't alter your experience as a gamer if that's the case. On the bright side, GameTap has plenty of good games for the freeloaders out there, including last week's addition of Psychonauts.

The new subscriber games this week are:

• GORE: Ultimate Soldier (PC) - A run-of-the-mill FPS.
• Mad Gear (Arcade) - A run-of-the-mill top-down '80s racing game.
• TOCA Race Driver III (PC) - A competent not-so-run-of-the-mill modern racing game.

After the break we have GameTap's list of free games. The new free game Mutation Nation is bolded for easy reference. Topping the list of good free games is the aforementioned Psychonauts, but still available are several entries in the Hitman series, Tomb Raider: Legend, Ghouls n' Ghosts and Sam & Max: Abe Lincoln Must Die.
