| AEGF Mobile Games' NBC Sports Label from Bode Miller AEGF Mobile Games and NBC Sports today announced that reigning double world champion skier Bode Miller has signed a two-year, worldwide exclusive license to create and publish Bode Miller skiing games for mobile communications devices such as phones and PDA's. Under the deal, NBC Sports and AEGF will use Miller's name and likeness, as well as his creative input to create mobile games that attract his avid fans, as well as the casual gamer. The announcement was made today by Marcus Ticotin, Principal, AEGF Mobile Games and Ken Schanzer, President, NBC Sports. This is the first game under the recently announced agreement between AEGF and NBC Sports. The game will be branded and supported by NBC Sports to take advantage of Miller's phenomenal success on the world cup ski circuit, including his 2005 World Cup Overall Title (a first for a U.S. skier since 1983) and his highly anticipated competition at the 2006 Winter Olympics in Torino, Italy. The game is being built using Miller's creative input and focuses on his dynamic style and abilities featuring both challenging and casual gameplay, as well as single and multiplayer modes. The first Bode Miller games will be available in January 2006. write your comments about the article :: © 2005 Game News :: home page |
