This decision will no doubt create some attention and further speculation about Tiger Woods and about his relationship with sponsors. With that in mind, I want to shed some light on why EA SPORTS has decided to continue with Tiger on the masthead of this game

The gaming industry is a multi-billion dollar industry, as the apparently much-justified hype surrounding the Microsoft Xbox 360, the Sony Playstation 3, and the Nintendo Wii attests. Now, as the teens of yesteryear who played the first video games become parents themselves who are every bit as addicted as their kids to the latest in video games, and as the smart phone market now includes the entire family, it only makes sense that that the two industries would inevitably find a happy marriage in one another.

While EA Games is busying bringing its blockbuster titles to European smart phones, Handango and Capcom will be partnering to release many of Capcoms top franchise games via Handangos popular online store and on-device content delivery client for smart phone users is North America. The first games to be distributed will be:

• Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?
• Are You Smarter than a 5^th Grader?
• Street Fighter
• Mega Man

And thats sure to be only the beginning.

Capcom is the latest of Handangos over 16,000 content partners. Capcom video games distributed via Handango will initially be made available for RIM Blackberry and Microsoft Windows Mobile smart phones. Handango AMPP is one of the most preferred content platforms for AOL, AT&T, HP, Microsoft, T-Mobile, Verizon Wireless, and many more of the smart phone industrys leaders. Supported devices include:

• AT&T Tilt
• HTC Touch and HTC TyTN II
• BlackBerry 8830 World Edition, BlackBerry Curve and BlackBerry Pearl
• Verizon XV6800
• Palm TX
• Nokia E90 Communicator and Nokia N95

Other Capcom games that smartphone-using video gaming enthusiasts will no doubt be clamoring for next include Ghosts n Goblins, 1942 and the Resident Evil, Breath of Fire, Onimusha, and Devil May Care series.
