Helio announces game service deets
With our personal favorite MVNO Helio's launch just around the corner, we're getting some details as to what exactly they have in store for us beyond those hip-cool Korean handsets. In the gaming arena it turns out they're sticking with their general operating style and borrowing from their partner SK Telecom to bring Korean mobile gaming tech to the US. Their library of 2D and 3D multiplayer games -- including titles such as Tetris, Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones, and Who Wants To Be A Millionaire -- are said to take full advantage of the Hero and Kickflip's processing power and 3G data speeds. Before you buy a game you can get info and screens from IGN reviews with your phone, and can either purchase the game straight up, "beg" it off a friend, "gift" it to a pal, or rent the title. Doesn't sound too groundbreaking, but there does seem to be an emphasis on community, so we look forward to seeing how it plays out.
