BMW Launches Z4 Game for iPhone and iPod

STORY HIGHLIGHTS:

BMW launches Z4 game for iPod and iPhone
It was developed in collaboration with Artificial Life
Players can virtually drive the BMW Z4 Roadster

As we have already reported about a month ago, BMW teamed up with Artificial Life, a leading full service provider of award winning mobile technology, games and applications to create "BMW Z4 - An Expression of Joy", a challenging game for the iPhone and iPod.

Well, gamers all over the world and BMW Z4 Roadster fans, we are honored to announce you that the "BMW Z4 - An Expression of Joy" game has just been launched. Players can explore, customize, create and virtually drive the BMW Z4 Roadster. Multi-control game will also be possible thanks to its motion sensor and touch screen of the device. In addition, the game is supposed to make players feel as if they were actually driving a BMW Z4.

Features of the game include: 360° view of the new BMW Z4 Roadster, modeled to exact BMW specifications using full 3D Computer-Aided Design data, authentic symphony of dynamic BMW Z4 sound effects, multiple camera views that allow for an unparalleled virtual BMW Z4 experience and sharing of the “An Expression of Joy” creations.

More importantly, gamers will also be able to see every aspect of the BMW Z4 Roadster in a highly detailed 3D model.

And if the racing experience is not enough for the players, they can also practice their artistic skills by "drawing" using the wheels of their cars. They may choose different colors of paint in order to make their tire tracks create drawings as if creating brushstrokes on a canvas.

We don't know for you, but as far as we're concerned, we would happy to play the game until... of course, we have the ocassion to test drive the real BMW Z4 Roadster.
