Gameloft, a leading
developer and publisher of games for mobile phones and consoles, today
announced they were named “Best-Ranked Mobile Game Publisher” in an
independent study conducted by Pocket Gamer.
Considered to be the leading authority in mobile gaming, Pocket Gamer
recently completed a comparison study reviewing game scores received by all
game publishers. The analysis was based on 313 international game reviews
made public between the months of January and March 2008. Game critique
scores were compiled from such influential websites as Pocket Gamer, IGN
Wireless, Mobile Game FAQs, AirGamer, and Midlet Review.
“Receiving this honor from Pocket Gamer is a true privilege,” said Michel
Guillemot, President and CEO, Gameloft. “We will strive to live up to this
distinction by continuing to deliver the best titles worldwide.” Gameloft
surpassed the competition with an average score of 7.94 out of 10, ahead of
the second place publisher that earned a median score of 7.61.
“Gameloft’s tally was based only on 34 available reviews out of the 313
that we studied,” said Stuart Dredge, Editor-in-Chief, Pocket Gamer. “This
makes the outcome all the more impressive because they managed to secure very
high scores based on a small number of published reviews.
