Another use for your kids’ mobile phone - MMORPG and mobile World of Warcraft
You think
texting is addicting?
Ever hear of World of Warcraft? You know, that Massive Multiplayer Online Roll Playing Game (say THAT three times fast)?
Well, guess what. Rumor has it that it’s coming to mobile phones as well. To wit:
…Research has shown that mobile games attract a diverse demographic, drawing more women and users in their 30s than console games do. The latest figures from M-Metrics show that marginally more women than men download mobile games in the UK.
That statistic doesn’t bode well for mobile versions of massively multiplayer online games (MMOs), which have thousands of players online at once, playing with or against each other. On PC, such games are played mainly by men.
MMOs are too male-oriented, geeky and complex to be turned into mobile games, market observers say. Nevertheless, excitement is building around the idea of mobile MMOs, either based on existing PC games, such as World of Warcraft, or developed as mobile-exclusive titles.
Just this year, there have been rumors that World of Warcraft is coming to mobile in some form, vendors Vollee and Comverse have demonstrated technology that enables people to play PC-based MMOs from their handsets, and Nokia has said that it plans to launch at least one MMO for its new N-Gage mobile games platform …MORE….
Kids are going to devour this one….
Here are some more resources for MMO mobile apps:
- Korean MMO for Windows Mobile!!!
- Hynix ships fastest one-gigabit LPDDR2 chip for mobile devices
- Age Of Empires III Mobile Storms Handsets In North America
Not looking forward to this, I can tell you that.
ThankYouVeryMuch!
