The Discovery Channel has... well, discovered the world of handheld gaming, and it's just tapped Capcom to provide mobile and iPhone adaptations of its Cash Cab quiz show.

Cash Cab is an unusual format that attempts to catch New York natives unaware by quizzing them about general knowledge topics during a taxi ride.

Capcom's mobile and iPhone adaptations will test players with a series of questions that must be answered before the taxi arrives at its destination. Get three wrong, and you're chucked out of the taxi.

The mobile version of Cash Cab is expected in June, with the iPhone game following in August.

Yes. Spanner's his real name, and he's already heard that joke you just thought of. Although Spanner's not very good, he's quite fast, and that seems to be enough to keep him in a regular supply of free games and away from the depressing world of real work.
