Public Beta Recruitment

Looking for beta testers

We are recruiting for a beta test team. This team will get to take an early
look at GameTap and provide us with valuable feedback. If you haven’t heard
of this exciting new service, it’s a first-of-its-kind broadband
entertainment network that offers games-on-demand plus original programming
via a broadband connected PC. The service offers a wide range of games from
retro-arcade to PC to popular console. GameTap will launch with hundreds of
games and then roll out additional titles and programming on an ongoing
basis. Programming is created expressly for GameTap -- coming attractions
and behind-the-scenes peeks that introduce the games and provide background
information.

Candidates for the beta test must:

1. Be 18 years of age or older
2. Live in the United States
3. Have an IBM compatible PC with Pentium 4 or AMD Athlon 1.2GHz or
better processor
4. Have 256 MB RAM, or better
5. Have an ATI Radeon VE 7000 with at least 32MB ram video card, nVidia
GeForce2 with at least 32MB ram, or better (On-board video cards will not be
accepted)
6. 5GB of free hard drive space
7. Have a broadband connection

If you are interested in joining our team please visit
https://betatest.ibeta.com/tgn/ and complete the submission form. If you fit
the team's needs, we will be in contact with you shortly in order to verify
information and set you up on the team.

Thank you for your interest!!

greffov will become famous soon enough
what kind of beta is this about? gaming? software?

System specs don't seem to be very high. Is Linux also supported?

cheers!

This beta is for PC only no Mac or Linux support, thanks for asking I forgot to mention that in the original Post.

I am unfortunately unable to disclose if it is even a Game and/or a Program. I choose this forum because I thought that it would be appropriate. I can also say that people of all skill levels would likely enjoy this beta.

I'm intrigued... As soon as I upgrade my Video Card I might sign up...

'cause, right now, my Video Card sucks.

Like. Big time. It's a TNT2.

It makes me sad.

GameTap Beta

Ok I changed the first post to contain the newestest Info for the new Beta..
This run is still U.S. and PC only (Sorry guys).

The people in the First run enjoyed it.

See you around.

Jerrett.

P.S. I love the forums (I hate being a lurker but too little time at work for me to post)
