Online scrabble has revealed a whole new world of game possibilites embedding real world maps into the game experience. Nokia is doing it for a car racing game on mobile phones – OVI Maps Racing. I pretty excited about the what I think will become a new trend in car racing apps — unlimited tracks using real world maps.
Think about it — create your own world of racing tracks and invite others to race. With the accelerometer, driving should be pretty exciting. Hell you can even start your own contest via network gaming features once they become available. An online scoreboard would complete the whole thing. Enjoy the video below, until Nokia releases the game at the OVI Store.
