Select THQ titles headed to GameTap photo

In an effort to offer even more games to its subscribers, GameTap has signed an agreement with THQ for the rights to some of its more recent hits starting this summer.

When I think of THQ, "quality" doesn't immediately come to mind, but there are some damn fine games on horizon for GameTap fans: Company of Heroes, Warhammer 40K, Red Faction, Supreme Commander, Titan Quest, Saints Row 2, PuzzleQuest, and S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl.

Even if you aren't a paid subscriber, you'll still be able to play "some" of the aforementioned games, although the press release doesn't get any more specific than that, unfortunately.

Gametap has some titles that even non-subscribers can play and they are rotated weekly (meaning that it's better that you hurry up and finish them in a week time!), as a sort of "demo version" of the service.

Some of these will be probably offered as well. Strong titles though.

I just found the last copy of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. (god that takes forever to type) in my town. It is a damn fun game to play. Very unique in the world of shooters.

I have come to appreciate THQ titles as of late.

I think quality... somewhat

Sure they put out a lot of shit, but they made Dawn of War, Company of Heroes, and Titan Quest

I played S.T.A.L.K.E.R for an hour or so and lost much interest in it and never touched it since.
