Battlecry III, as well as the network's first SEGA Saturn title.
Wing Commander: Electronic Arts' sci-fi strategy game enlists players in
an outer space aerial war to defend Earth from the marauding Kilrathi race. Wing
Commander was a revolutionary game when it was released, blazing trails in the
realms of 3D gaming, cinematic storytelling and the popularization of sound
cards and game soundtracks, so check out the game that started it all!
Warlords Battlecry III: This real time strategy game from Enlight
Interactive Inc. further expands the Battlecry tradition of featuring persistent
RPG-like fantasy heroes with its retinue of loyal followers fighting massive
battles in the Warlords' world of Etheria. As a true sequel to Warlords
Battlecry I & II - both of which are also available on GameTap - it features
many familiar races and troop-types, while also adding new ones into the mix.
Bug!: Originally appearing on GameTap last week in the form of an "Easter
Egg," this SEGA action title ushers in GameTap's latest console “ the SEGA
Saturn. Bug is a big movie star whose film set friends are kidnapped, so he's
off to save the day in a hopping-and-bopping platform-jumping adventure. With
some of the greatest Saturn titles on the horizon, this is big news for fans of
classic console gaming.
Doki Doki Penguin Land: GameTap unveils SEGA's Doki Doki Penguin Land, its
latest addition to its library of games for the rare SG-1000 Japanese-only 8-bit
console. As a penguin in the harsh arctic wasteland, it's your job to outsmart
the burly polar bears and roll your egg to the safety of your underground home.
ThinkTanks: GarageGames' ThinkTanks is a fast-paced tank combat game where
only the smartest tanks survive in a deadly arena. The backstory is that the
Terranians have been harvesting human brains and popping them into armored
vehicles, all to create a game show where these captive Think Tanks do battle
for the amusement of wicked alien overlords. You're one of the Think Tanks, but
you've escaped! Now it's up to you to free your fellow brains and destroy the
enemy.
