Gametap Sucks

Jan 18, 2007 15:20

So, right now I'm on hold calling a "representative" of Gametap. Turns out a simple online cancellation isn't the best idea, because God forbid "user-friendliness" be an aspect of the Gametap company. I haven't actually played a game on this since November, but they've billed me since then, and apparently today was THE billing day, and I am now ten dollars poorer.

The games aren't terrible; some are pretty cool. There's a pretty good selection to choose from.

If you like Commodore 64 or DOS style games.

Yeah, and Far Cry or Tomb Raider? Good luck downloading those in less than an hour.

Oh, and when you finally DO get into a game that you enjoy, Gametap is happy to freeze up for you!

...

Huh. Looks like I get a free month. I can now not play through March!

As soon as I remember my password, I can email it along with my screename to anyone interested in playing.

Illegal? You bet your ass! But for thirty bucks, I think I (or you) should get more than 3 hours of enjoyment out of this stupid program.
