Today at the JavaOne 2008 Conference, Glu Mobile Inc. (Nasdaq:GLUU), a
leading global publisher of mobile games, announced its upcoming
original title, Get Cookin’, will utilize
motion-sensitive technology available on new Sony Ericsson Mobile
Communications AB (“Sony Ericsson”)
handsets. The use of this technology challenges players to use a
combination of physical gestures as well as button presses to create
sophisticated cuisines, bringing an entirely new ingredient to mobile
games.
Get Cookin’ is a new title from Glu launching
in July 2008 across all major carriers worldwide. Get Cookin’
challenges players to create delicious cuisine by perfecting a wide
variety of cooking methods, ingredients, seasonings and recipes. Gamers
with the Sony Ericsson W910i, debuted earlier this year at the Consumer
Electronics Show in Las Vegas, will utilize motion-specific techniques
to complete enticing meals in order to rise to the top of their
profession.
“Sony Ericsson’s
motion sensor technology allows us to incorporate more authentic, true
to life challenges in Get Cookin’ and
introduce an entirely new dimension to mobile games,”
said Alex Galvagni, chief technology officer and senior vice president
of global product development, Glu. “The use
of this technology gives developers a way to deepen the gameplay and
gives players a truly fun game that incorporates all new ways to play.”
The built-in accelerometer in the Sony Ericsson W910i is used to control
game functions such as flipping a steak in a pan by utilizing its
sensitivity to allow for a more intense and physical gaming experience.

motion sensor found inside the W910i and several other new Sony Ericsson
devices.
