Speed Racer races onto cell phones from Glu

This isn't the first time a game based on an upcoming movie has hit the small screens of cell phones, and it definitely won't be the last. But this by far is my favorite of all time, being a long time fan of Speed Racer and his arch enemy, the mysterious Racer X.

Jill Braff, Senior Vice President of Glu Games said, "We're really proud of the job our studio has done to develop a white-knuckle racing game on par with the level of quality that the Wachowski brothers expect. We're excited to be able to put this experience in the hands of consumers in anticipation of the film's debut."

The game will pit the players against other popular racers from the anime series including Racer X and will feature advanced graphics and 3D screens. Players get to drive the Mach 6 and utilize "Car-Fu," to take on the extreme tracks and obstacles with a unique gaming experience.

The game is already available on various networks across the world and will continue to be launched worldwide concurrent with the film's release date, which is May 9 in the States. Go, Speed Racer, Go!
