This week Glu has offered to buy British mobile game company Superscape for $36 million. If the deal is accepted, Glu will come close to matching the U.S. leader of cell phone games, Electronic Arts. Superscape has about 5% of the U.S. market and sells games on carriers Verizon Wireless and Alltel. The Superscape board has approved the takeover. Superscape was a pioneer in bringing 3-D gaming to cell phones, and is still strong in that area. Its titles include Paintball Challenge and Classic Mini Golf. Let’s hope this deal will help keep us glued to our handset.
