Anyone know if this stock is going to rocket?

agreed ehall, superscape will succeed, they have the patents and the support of the industry. Anyone thinking of selling should seriously research the facts - this one will be worth double by year end/Q1 2005.

GameMobile issues 2003 Christmass mobile java games top-seller list
Www.GameMobile.co.uk, one of the leading UK distributors of Mobile Phone Games for java enabled phones, saw an incredible increase in sales of their mobile games over the 2003 festive period.

(PRWEB) January 17 2004--It seems that everybody got a colour phone at Christmas and one of the first things they wanted to do was play games. The GameMobile site saw an increase of over 178% in traffic and mobile game sales almost doubled. The most popular models were the SonyEricsson T610 and Nokias new N-Gage, with the Nokia 3650 & 3510i closely following. The two top models accounted for over a third of the traffic though.

Amazingly, the top overall games were more strategic in nature rather than the more traditional arcade games. Probably because theyre easier from a button control point of view. Over the 2 week Christmas period the top 5 games were:

1: Townsmen - build & run a city simulator game.
2: Air Traffic Control - simulator game.
3: Kaprov 3D Chess - top 3D chess game.
4: Italian Job - racing arcade game based on the new film.
5: Rack em up - classic pool-hall game.

Game sales are going through the roof as hunger builds for the demanding consumer today who wants their mobile phone to become a full entertainment platform. Worldwide mobile phone sales were up again in the third quarter of 2003, with 132.8 million units sold, a 22 percent increase from last year. Source: www.enn.ie - and most of these are colour java-enabled handsets capable of playing mobile phone games.

We see the future of mobile java games and applications as key to the marketplace. Www.gamemobile.co.uk, for example, is also developing many other applications for users not only in the gaming arena. With our new applications it will soon be possible to browse the web, pick up email and do instant chat, gambling and alike on lower level java handsets - something which has only so far been the reserve of high-end mobile phones.

Were very excited about 2004 with hundreds of new games titles on the horizon and the integration of amazing java applications

Breaking News

New Evel-ution game for Superscape to be announced tommorrow as reported in Financial Mail today. The game for mobile phones is based upon Motorcycle daredevil Evel Knievel.

Expect to see share price boosted when the stockmarket opens tommorrow.

Would Evil put his game on a platform that according to the IC has no future! ARM rsults out on Tuesday I think, possibly a suprise in that. Before you sell your shares, read the IC carefully and DYOR on superscape, the article has several flaws in it! Excluding cash, SPS is now worth around 36m, even with only three of the top five world manufacturers licensing their product, this is not very risk. And where exactly is the risk in a company that has 15m in the bank at the last count!

Knievel makes the leap into mobiles
Andrew Leach, Mail on Sunday
25 January 2004


OTORCYCLE daredevil Evel Knievel will appear on mobile phone screens in a state-of-the-art game from Superscape Group to be announced tomorrow.
















Shares in Superscape are likely to be boosted when it tells the Stock Exchange of the latest breakthrough.



The company has developed the industry standard for mobile gaming, thanks to its Swerve 3D graphics software which produces highly realistic images.


It is starting to roll out games and will use the software in a game featuring stunt legend Knievel, who jumped 13 double decker buses at Wembley Stadium in 1975 to be played on new generation handsets.


Superscape has signed a licensing and publishing deal with brand development company Global Wireless Entertainment.


Kevin Roberts, Superscape's chief executive, said: 'Given the worldwide interest in this personality and his spectacular exploits, I believe that the Evelution game will prove a great hit for gamers worldwide.'

SUPERSCAPE TO CO-PUBLISH NEW 3D EVEL KNIEVEL GAME FOR MOBILE PHONES



Date, Hook, Hampshire, UK: Superscape Group plc (LSE: SPS), specialists in the development of industry standard 3D technology to deliver console quality, over-the-air (OTA) games on mobile phones announces that it has signed an exclusive licensing and co-publishing agreement with Global Wireless Entertainment (GWE) for the Evel Knievel brand. Under the terms of the agreement, Superscape will develop a new 3D game entitled Evel-ution which will be published and marketed by both companies worldwide.



The game, which will be designed and developed using Superscapes Swerve 3D technology will run on both Java and BREW-based mobile handsets and will be launched in Q2 2004.



The 3D Evel-ution game will allow players to control Evel Knievel as he rides through a series of obstacles and jumps, gaining points as he progresses. Various levels are included in the game which take Evel over ramps made of cars, buses, trucks and fountains. Players will need to use considerable skill to control the speed and balance of Evel as they move towards the Main Event which will include the Vegas Fountain jump, the 13 Mack Truck jump and a stadium packed with fourteen Greyhound buses in Kings Island.



Kevin Roberts, CEO, Superscape Group plc said: Evel Knievel is a name that is known throughout the world as the worlds first and still most exciting motorcycle daredevil. Both PC and Game Boy-based games have been developed, but our agreement with GWE will see Evel Knievel come to the small screen of mobile phones for the very first time. Given the worldwide interest in this personality and his spectacular exploits, I believe that the new Evel-ution game will prove to be a great hit for gamers worldwide.

- ENDS -

Whats going on, announcements like this should push the price up, instead people are selling. Crazy!!! Anyway I feel is a buy and hold for the next 2 years to get the most of this gem. Thanks

xmortal,

It could be that MM's are trying to gather stock as with a success story like this institutional buyers are now wanting to get in. IMHO hold & add.

legins,

I agree with youon this one. Opportunity to Add IMHO.

skids

Had to phone up this morning to add to my holding. The limit was at 50000. It would not let me even buy 15000.
It seems that Legins could be right.

Def hold.

Only time will tell.

If you look at the price action this afternoon,at 1400 bid offer was dropped from 35/37 to 34/36. only 15000 shares were bid against 100,000 buys and 170,000 dly. offer was subsequently raised to 37p.imho mm s are trying desperately to gather stock.As soon as there is any buying momentum, price will rocket, time could be next week at games forum.

Too much good news for this not to rise over time.

Not just the stream of good news that will soon drive the share price up. Its the good revenues that will also come.

Remember how much wealth was created from operating systems and software through the rise in demand for the first 286, 386, 486 PC's, well this will be repeated in small powerful 3G mobile phone handsets and telecommunications & computing software to run on them. It won't take quite as long this time for Superscape, as Tadpole's SymbianOS backed by Nokia and now Microsoft want Swerve.

Not only that, Superscape has had a great deal of foresight. Now there is a fight with these companies as to who's operating system will get lions share of market and be the largest global operating system like Dos & Windows did in overtaking Apple in desktop & laptop PC's.

Whatever operating system that is ultimately the most popular they all will be heavily graphics oriented for users to be attracted to it. Superscape has made sure that their Swerve graphics technolgy is universal to mobile telecom & computing software and the popular programming languages of Java & Brew for either of the two leading contestors in operating systems.

Superscape now cannot loose and without doubt are the major leader in the whole global market for downloadable graphics applications on mobile telecommunication and computing devices.

I think this one will remain steady for a while, until the big mobile firms start reaping rewards from the vast amounts of money they've invested, in the 3G mobile phone licenses.When they start really talking up 3G it will be time to watch the price rise.
I agree with legins on the foresight of Superscape, they definately have people in the firm who have realised the potential in the market.Rather than putting their eggs in one basket.It's better to have fingers in more than one pie.

It is being shorted so holders have two options.

1 Buy more and make then close

2 Wait until they reverse long

This share has a support level of around 30p at which institutions bought in the recent fund raising, it shouldn't go below that and should bounce back up given the recent news, let the shorter have his day, far too much institutional support and news for this share! Excluding cash, you are now paying 25m for a company that is signing with virtually every big name in the business, it is only a matter of time before the share bounces strongly!
