New and Upcoming Games (UPDATED 02.18.10)

A lot of work goes into acquiring, developing and testing a game before it is released on GameTap. Every game brings a unique set of challenges that take a variable amount of time to overcome. You can use this thread to track the progress of a game from the encryption process to release, and to get the latest news on upcoming titles.
Every week we also choose a game from our Premium Pack to be our featured free game of the week. This featured game is in addition to our regular free game library that is rotated at about 5 games per month.
Encoding - Scientists deliver the new born game and it’s hauled off to the “Encryption Crypt” where dark priests practice their black arts and incantations, sealing the game’s contents with an ancient rune.
In Testing - The encrypted game is then sent to GameTap HQ via a series of tubes, where it is poked and molested behind closed doors by our friendly and diligent test monkeys.
Ready - The testers and publishers judge the game, always staring, always judging with their cold, uncaring eyes... and with their stamp of approval the game anxiously awaits its big debut.
Coming X.XX.XX - Mark your calendars, the date is set and our little bundle of joy is definitely on its way… err, we're pretty sure it is, well it's probably coming on that day.
BC - Back catalog 64-Bit conversions, these are existing titles that we are re-encoding to our new 64-Bit OS compatible encryption scheme.
All new titles are being encrypted with 64-Bit compatibility unless otherwise noted.
