Mobile games hit next level in India

India's booming wireless-game market will continue to expand, generating annual revenue of $336 million by 2009, according to new data released this week, reports News.com.

That figure marks a major jump from the $26 million expected for this year.

The Indian mobile-game business currently makes up about 5 percent of the global wireless market, but it's growing fast, market researcher In-Stat/MDR said in its study. The market encompasses a half dozen major game developer companies and four service providers offering games to their subscribers. CDMA and GSM networks clock an average of 220,000 downloads per month, the researcher said.
