M.A.C.H. Air Combat coming to mobile

Fresh from the recent Crash Boom Bang! week on Pocket Gamer (see our interview with CEO Paul Maglione), Vivendi Games Mobile has announced a bunch of upcoming mobile games.

They include that furry fella, although his new mobile game appears to have been renamed Crash Bandicoot Party now. March will also see the release of The Incredible Machine, which we've already reported on.

But there's also four new titles to look forward to.

M.A.C.H. Air Combat is launching this month alongside a PSP version. It's a spangly looking-into-the-screen plane game, blending racing and dogfighting in equal measures.

Meanwhile, the gaming world's most famous lothario is getting another outing, with Leisure Suit Larry: Love For Sail. Vivendi says the game is a return to Larry's roots, being a graphical adventure game.

Set across planes, ships and casinos, the game sees Larry testing out his worst best chat-up lines. The game is due out in the first half of this year.

Then there's Office Wars, an isometric life simulation (in other words a bit like The Sims), which claims to recreate all the politics, tensions and mind-games of a typical office. Hopefully without the endless hours of grinding boredom, obviously. Your job is to rise from a lowly office-drone to being the big boss. It's out in March.

Finally, Shock Blocks is a puzzler that Vivendi says comes with a twist, which from the screenshot looks like it may be a literal twist, as in rotating stuff. The gameplay appears to be a traditional blend of matching coloured blocks though. It's out in April.
