Glu also sticking Guitar Hero 5, Blur, Tony Hawk: Ride on cell phones

Activision has stuck with Glu for bringing more than just Modern Warfare 2 to mobile phones. Gamasutra reports that the studio will also create keypad-friendly versions of Guitar Hero 5, Blur and Tony Hawk: Ride for release this year, although we have to question how closely the gameplay of the latter with adhere to that of the peripheral-based console version.
Again, these ports are all for mobile phones, not gaming handhelds masquerading as such, iPhone! (Which, when you think of it, would seem ideally suited for Ride.) They're being made for handsets running Android, Blackberry, Windows Mobile and Java-based operating systems. In Ride's case, we imagine the phone must also be able to handle a rider weight of 300 lbs.

You will out of frustration after you realize you just drained your battery and can't make a phone call.

I want to see someone holding a mini skateboard up to their head to make a phone call. So I can make fun of them.

I'm not buying this, even if it came with Tony Hawk himself.
