Welcome to another edition of The Pipeline, our weekly look at the progress of GameTap’s upcoming releases. There are 2 new comers to the coming soon list this week with the addition of Dracula Origin and Zoo Tycoon 2. I wasn’t familiar with Dracula Origins so I checked out some reviews and thought I’d share what IGN had to say about it, “Dracula: Origin is elegant piece of work visually, using well-known fictional characters and blending it into a fun and challenging adventure game. Everything ranging from the puzzles to the music fit in perfectly with the story.”. Rise Of The Argonauts and The Path have both been given a release date of 07.23.09.
Encoding - Scientists deliver the new born game and it’s hauled off to the “Encryption Crypt” where dark priests practice their black arts and incantations, sealing the game’s contents with an ancient rune.
In Testing - The encrypted game is then sent to GameTap HQ via a series of tubes, where it is poked and molested behind closed doors by our friendly and diligent test monkeys.
Ready - The testers and publishers judge the game, always staring, always judging with their cold, uncaring eyes… and with their stamp of approval the game anxiously awaits its big debut.
Coming X.XX.XX - Mark your calendars, the date is set and our little bundle of joy is definitely on its way… err, we’re pretty sure it is, well it’s probably coming on that day.

Dracula Origin sounds fun. I actually have a copy of Zoo Tycoon 2 that I got for free, but I’ve never played it. Maybe I should play the first one sometime…
I know Age of Mythology is awesome, but I’ve never played it (it’s been on my list forever), I always wanted to play Rise of the Argonauts (yay for recent-ish game!), and I love art games, so I anxiously await The Path. Seriously awesome line up!
Bring the awesome! BRING TURTIX!
I just realized, we’re getting back to 2 releases a week again :O
Free Fallout is always nice. If I wasn’t neck deep in SF IV and Disgaea 2, then I’d be all over some free Fallout.
A patch just came out for The Path. I guess it’s too late to get the patched version on GameTap though
@Bob, I do believe they got us the patch in time
What happened to Warhammer 40k Dark Crusade? It was out of testing and now back in….any insite as to when we can expect this highly anticipated game?!!? Your such a tease!!
I think it’s just waiting on publisher approval, once THQ gives us the thumbs up wwe can put it out
You should give Dark Crusade its own category on the coming soon list
I’m very glad to hear Dark Crusade might be out soon. i’ve been eagerly waiting for it since i finished Winter Assult. I’ve been wondering what was going on, but just never asked. good to know : )
umm when are you going to update this? i’m just curious.. no offense
