Digital Bridges Crosses the Big Pond
London-based Digital Bridges, a mobile entertainment development and
distribution company is branching out, bridging (oooh, bad pun) across
the Atlantic and trekking across the states to place themselves a
little closer to Silicon Valley.
DB has partnered with major
motion picture, television and game developers to bring cell phone
gamers a boat load of licensed games that feature well known characters
and gameplay that extends beyond the pre-requisite ‘snake’. Mobile
versions of several EA sports games, Vivendi Universal properties and
more are available via their retail site: http://web.archive.org/web/20050213011014/http://dbiplay.com:80/.
With
them, they bring several new titles, including 2Fast 2Furious, The Pink
Panther in Rare Pink, Crash Twinsanity, Sports Illustrated Football
Trivia 2005 (not pictured), Spyro: Ripto Quest and Arctic Challenge.
Their games are available to most major cell providers, including
SprintPCS, Verizon, T-Mobile, Cingular and more.
For some it’s
hard to see their phones as a viable gaming platform, especially since
the lack of actually fun titles and the grim journey of the N-Gage
phones, but consumers are willing to pay for decent games and the
convenience to play them anywhere they take their phones and DB offers
a lot of good looking picks. Look for future reviews as the new games
become available. In the meantime, have a go at the promising look of
the screenshots below.
