You install a program that turns your PC into a Multimedia Game machine that connects to gametap , something like Microsoft's Windows Media Center .

Doesn't work with Vista

The last time I checked Gametap doesn't work with Vista. They are supposed to be updating the client for compatbility. Good luck on that.

Looks like I spoke too soon. That was fast. I may have o try Gametap again.

"We apologize, but the GameTap service currently is available only in the United States and Canada. The GameTap service will be expanding into additional countries, but no release dates are available at this time."

It's like Steam. You install the GameTap software then you can download and play the games. Some are free, and most are for subscribers only.
