Thrill-Seekers Can Join the Evel-ution With Evel Knievel 3D Mobile Game on V CAST From Verizon Wireless

BEDMINSTER, New Jersey and HOOK, England, February 1/PRNewswire/ -- Superscape Group plc (LSE: SPS), the world's leading 3D mobile
games publisher, and Verizon Wireless, the nation's leading wireless service
provider, today announced Verizon Wireless's V CAST wireless broadband
multimedia service will feature Evel-ution - Superscape's 3D Evel Knievel
mobile game licensed by Global Wireless Entertainment (GWE) - as one of its
3D games. V CAST from Verizon Wireless is the first true 3G wireless
broadband consumer multimedia service in the country, allowing customers to
view crystal clear graphics for 3D games and short content because it runs on
Verizon Wireless' Evolution-Data Optimized (EV-DO) network - the only widely
available wide-area wireless broadband network in the United States. The V
CAST coverage area, which mirrors Verizon Wireless' EV-DO network, is
available more than 30 major metropolitan markets and covers more than 75
million people.



The action-packed 3D Evel-ution game allows players to control
Evel Knievel as he goes on a wild ride through a series of obstacles and
jumps, gaining points as he progresses. The various levels of the game take
Evel over numerous ramps made of anything from cars, buses and trucks to
fountains. Players need to use considerable skill to control Evel's speed and
maintain his balance as he moves toward the 'Main Event' that includes the
Vegas Fountain jump, the 13 Mack Truck jump and a stadium packed with
fourteen Greyhound buses in King's Island.



For US$15.00 monthly access added to their Verizon Wireless
calling plan, customers get the V CAST VPak which includes unlimited access
to a wide array of more than 300 daily updated short content and video clips
from leading content providers. Unlimited basic video clips are included, but
application download fees still apply for 3D Games, premium video clips and
all other Get It Now(R) applications. There are no airtime charges to
download or stream and watch video clips and other V CAST content. For a
limited time, customers who sign up for V CAST will receive two months of
service free. Verizon Wireless V CAST customers also receive monthly access
and unlimited browsing on Verizon Wireless' Mobile Web 2.0SM news and
information service. In addition, customers can choose from premium video
clip content, available at additional cost that includes music videos and
more.



V CAST's array of hot new multimedia programming is located in
the Get It Now virtual store - customers can access short content from news,
sports and entertainment providers in the getVIDEO shopping aisle and check
out new cutting-edge 3D games in the getGAMES aisle. V CAST also gives
customers unlimited airtime to browse applications in the other familiar Get
It Now shopping aisles - such as getTONES and getGOING. Evel-ution is
available in 3D Games section of the getGAMES shopping aisle in the Get It
Now virtual store for US$2.49 monthly access or US$8.99 for unlimited use
purchase.

that allows customers to download content with just a few clicks and
experience outstanding clarity and sharpness. The LG VX8000 is available to
Verizon Wireless customers for US$199.99 after US$70 rebate with a two-year
