Nokia
to Distribute Konami Games For
N-Gage Platform
Nokia
have announced that Konami mobile
titles will be added to the
N-Gage mobile games platform. The
mobile version of the
award-winning Metal Gear Solid
will be the first title in the
games line-up. Metal Gear Solid
Mobile has received top honours
at the 2007 International Mobile
Gaming Awards (IMGA), taking both
the Grand Prix and Operator's
Choice Awards.
The
new version of the classic game
features original content that
can only be found on the mobile
platform. Metal Gear Solid Mobile
includes never-before-seen
dramatic 3D art displays and
camera work. The detailed in-game
graphics capture the atmosphere
of the Metal Gear Solid series
and create a depth that
completely draws the player into
the game, and pushes the
capabilities of the mobile
platform. Players face the
extreme tension of solitary
infiltration in this version of
the tactical espionage action
game developed in conjunction
with Ideaworks3D and utilizing
its Airplay 3.5 SDK. An in-game
camouflage system utilizes colour
samples from the scenery of the
real world captured by the
handset's camera. Moreover,
additional controls are
introduced that are made
especially for mobile
devices.
"We're
excited to see Konami tap into
the performance and community
features we've built into the
N-Gage platform," said Gregg
Sauter, Director, Third Party
Games Publishing, Nokia. "Metal
Gear Solid on N-Gage will raise
the bar with respect to graphical
detail and made-for-mobile
features. We look forward to the
launch of this great franchise on
N-Gage."
"It
is my sincere hope that global
Nokia N-Gage users will
experience the appeal of "Metal
Gear" that has been brought to
the mobile platform in the form
of "Metal Gear Solid Mobile,"
said Hideo Kojima, Executive
Producer of Kojima Productions,
Corporate Officer of Konami
Digital Entertainment Co., Ltd.
"I believe that this cooperation
between Nokia and Konami will
form the perfect match to share
the vast potential of mobile
entertainment content with users
all around the world."
