"Heroes" Mobile Game

Starpulse is reporting that a mobile game based on NBC's "Heroes" is now in development. Gameloft, a fairly prolific published of mobile games, will be the developer.

"Heroes: The Mobile Game" (as it is very creatively titled) will "...allow fans of the show and casual gamers the chance to experience the thrill of the superhuman abilities of the show's characters." From the article, it looks like you will be able to play Hiro, Niki, Matt and Peter - not a bad lineup, although I wonder how Matt's mind-reading power will be conveyed in a handheld video game.

I can hear the marketers saying "You know, to make this game successful, a tagline must be developed! Something like "Save the Cheerleader, Save the World", only more applicable to the mobile world." Something like:

• Save the Voicemail, Save the World!


• Are You in the Contact List?


• Text the Future!

If you have any better taglines, post them in the comments. Even if the handheld game is questionable, we can have a little fun at its expense!
