Cubed3 has discovered, during a playtest of Ubisoft's new release 'Real Football 2008' for the DS (developed by Gameloft), that during matches Gameloft's racing game 'Asphalt Urban GT 3' is actually advertised on pitch-side billboards. With the first two titles making the transition from mobile to N-Gage and finally to Nintendo DS (and the first game selling extremely well indeed), this does not come as much of a surprise. However, nothing has officially been confirmed so far.
But why would developer Gameloft promote its racing threequel for mobile phones / N-Gage via the Nintendo DS? Currently C3 is waiting on Ubisoft's official comment and will update as soon as anything is heard. Yet it would seem racing fans not quite content with the fantastic Race Driver from Codemasters will soon get their third taste of the Asphalt action.
