GameShark.com is pleased to announce that we'll soon be bringing our readers downloadable games that they can try for free or purchase at their leisure through a partnership with Boonty. On April 22nd, we will be launching a new Downloadable Games Channel that will provide our readers access to all kinds of cool casual and hardcore PC games for every age group imaginable.



At a glance these game offerings will touch upon a number of genres including arcade, simulation, brain teaser games, puzzles games, classic-themed games, family friendly titles, and sports and racing games. In addition to those types of titles, the new section will offer premium titles like DRIV3R, Anarchy Online and many other titles from around the world.



GameShark.com visitors can try these games simply by downloading them, and if they find them appealing, they can purchase them immediately for instant gratification. These game offerings will cost between $9.95 - 19.95 each – a nice low price-point.



The end result of offerings like this new Downloadable Games Channel is added value to our visitors who are looking for more than just a place to find the latest cheats and game saves. This is just the beginning of our plans to expand the scope of the site into new areas this year, and we'll continue to deliver more content and additional services that our readers want in the days, weeks, and months ahead.



You can learn more about what Boonty does by visiting Boonty.com . A more detailed look at the agreement can be found in the official press release , announced yesterday. Be sure to check back at the end of this month to see this new feature at its fullest potential!
