Mobile gaming 'set to explode'

Mobile gaming is seen by many as the next big thing, as phones become more powerful and come with colour screens, according to speakers at the Game Developers Conference Europe on in London this week.

"Games for mobiles should be considered different from those played on a PC or a console like the PlayStation 2. And they must be designed to appeal to people with a few minutes to kill, waiting for a train or bus.

Mobile gaming has already proved immensely popular in Japan, where people are happy to pay to download relatively simple games that can be played anywhere", reports the BBC via Techdirt.
