GamesIndustry.biz says Get Games will host free-to-play, indie, classic, and new titles. No mention of Eurogamer's relationship with existing partner Metaboli (a very similar service) has been made and it remains to be seen whether Get Games and Metaboli will coexist on Eurogamer's site.

The catch is that only games Eurogamer thoroughly approves of are sold through the service. Thus, a whopping 5 titles.

At the moment. It's a pretty poor launching lineup, I know. But I'm sure they have the backing of some pretty big and influential developers or publishers to launch such a service. I don't see it going very far though, I think the likes of Steam have the market sewn up really. Still, always good to have competition.

Even though this service is pretty good, I give it 5 out 10!

PHAIL.
The phrase is "8/10".
Learn it.

I dont mean to bash on any Eurogamer fans but I think the site' reviews kinda suck.... They seem to rate good games, that score in the 80's on every other site, in the 70's all the time. Ive noticed after seeing countless games marked lower by Eurogamer on Metacritic.com

I wonder if it's in any relationship to getgames.ca an online games rental through mail service like gamefly. But Canadian
