Hands-On Mobile To Develop Guitar Hero World
Tour and Follow-up Title To Guitar Hero III: Backstage Pass for Mobile Phones

Hands-On Mobile, Inc. in partnership with
Activision Publishing, Inc. today announced that Hands-On Mobile has obtained
the worldwide mobile phone licensing rights to develop and publish Guitar Hero
World Tour and a follow-up title to the recently launched, Guitar Hero III:
Backstage Pass mobile phone game. Guitar Hero World Tour will be released on
mobile phones later this year in conjunction with the console game, while the
follow-up title will be available to users in 2009.

"We are excited to continue our relationship with
Activision and further extend the Guitar Hero franchise to fans worldwide. The
popularity of the Guitar Hero games in the mobile phone environment proves that
a multiplatform approach complements the success of a franchise like Guitar
Hero," said David White, CEO of Hands-On Mobile. "We are confident the upcoming
titles will further advance the mobile phone gaming industry in a significant
way and provide consumers with the opportunity to stay connected to their
favorite games."

As one of the company’s most ambitious mobile
titles to date, Guitar Hero World Tour will push boundaries with cross-carrier,
real-time multiplayer capabilities and an interactive web companion that will
allow players to create profiles, browse leaderboards and download new music. In
addition to the guitar, Guitar Hero World Tour mobile will include drums as a
playable feature for every song in the game. Further pushing the boundaries on
mobile phones, Hands-On Mobile will make the MP3 quality master recordings
available on an increased number of handsets across all platforms.

"Hands-On Mobile has been an ideal partner to
recreate the Guitar Hero franchise for mobile phone gaming," said Dusty Welch,
Head of Publishing for Guitar Hero. "The Guitar Hero Mobile platform has proven
to be a phenomenal success and a great way for gamers to experience the
franchise on yet another platform."

In June 2008, Guitar Hero III Mobile received
BREW Developer Awards for Top Application and People’s Choice and was named the
Best Mobile Game of 2007 – after its release in December – at the 2008 Casual
Game Awards. In addition, Guitar Hero III Mobile, a marquee game in its current
collection of Guitar Hero branded mobile phone games, has reached more than 2
million game downloads and more than 50 million downloaded songs to date. The
