Default TBS Logs In to Online Gaming

Keeping its development under wraps for two years, Turner Broadcasting announced a plan to launch an online network for video games.

Scheduled to premier this fall, GameTap will be available to online subscribers with an initial game library of 300 games, though 1000 games have been licensed.

“With GameTap, we are bringing to games what we brought to cable television: compelling, branded environments where beloved properties live on," Andrew Heller, president of domestic distribution for TBS, said.

By “beloved properties,” he means that many of the games are popular games of the past that are no longer available to buy, i.e., like reruns.

The service, speculated to range from $10 to $15 a month, will be available only for Windows-based PCs and will require subscribers to download special software for access.
