My Day with Gametop

Written on 10:00 PM by Rahul Mathur

"Stop Paying For Playing Games"

Exactly, thats what I and Gametop.com says, well i aint talking about torrent .I am talking about the free games found on gametop.com .I have never played such high quality 3-D games with awesome graphics and are highly addictive. I got my hands on three games

• Deadly Stars - HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
• Brixout XP - You all remember the game DX ball, dont you ? Great graphics and addictive.
  
• Bombermania - I was expecting a lot more :( .Not recommended .
  

Deadly Stars -> WOW! WOW!WOW! This game is the best ffree game i have ever played.The main motive is simple - Destroy whatever comes in your way.Check out some screenshots -

That is the gameplay screenshot.
The graphics look much much better.
