Broadband entertainment network GameTap is searching for people who love to play games to join its beta program. Sign up through this exclusive invitation before the spots fill up.

Whether you prefer action games such as Tomb Raider, strategy games such as Civilization IV, adventure games such as Sam & Max, fighting games such as Street Fighter Alpha 3 and King of Fighters 2003, or puzzle games like Bust-A-Move and Columns, GameTap has them all playable for free.

GameTap frequently adds new features, new game platforms, and of course more games. In turn, the company needs more beta testers to help try out and evaluate its new offerings. If you're serious about games and willing to provide detailed, top-notch feedback, GameTap invites you to join.

In order to be eligible for the GameTap beta team, you must be within the GameTap Gold service area (USA and Canada) and must have either a Windows PC (2000, XP, Vista) or an Intel Mac.

To apply, visit GameTap's beta site at beta.gametap.com and use the password: NuuanuPali. Please fill out GameTap's beta application with as much detail as possible.

Please note that not everyone who applies will be accepted and that your answers will be used to determine your qualifications for beta testing.
