Gaming buffet
GameTap just announced that THQ- and ValuSoft-published titles will begin finding their way onto the service starting this summer. Notable titles include:
- Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War and expansions
- Company of Heroes
- Red Faction
- Supreme Commander
- Saints Row 2
- Puzzle Quest
- S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
It's nice to see relatively new titles like
Supreme Commander make the list. We're also curious to find out if
Saints Row 2 releases on the service the same day as retail, similar to GameTap's
deal with Codemasters. The THQ agreement is apparently a "long-term partnership" and some titles will also be made available on GameTap's
free ad-supported service. This THQ announcement comes only a few months after
Interplay returned and Take-Two committed to the service.

Wow. O_O
I think I may finally be getting a GameTap Gold account.

I spotted that Fallout is coming this week. This service looks better all the time.

"S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War
Supreme Commander
Company of Heroes"
If you didn't buy these games, then you need to get of your ass and leg it to the nearest Gamestop, because you are a tool.No seriously, these games are too good to be a part of crappy GameTap.Get up and buy them now.
How do you think gaming is ever going to evolve if CoD4 is the highest standard for a game?

I have S.T.A.L.K.E.R., Supreme Commander, and Company of Heroes.
I haven't gotten Dawn of War yet.

I only have Supreme Commander,and I only thought it was decent. The factions seemed too similar and overall didn't really hold my attention. But I have been meaning to check out those other games you mentioned. They all look good. Definitely makes me want to upgrade to gold, but hell, if one of those listed games goes on the free area, I'll be excited.

Some seriously great games their. Stalker, Company of Heroes, Dawn of War, even Puzzle Quest are all great games if you haven't played them.
