Virtual Girlfriend for Your Mobile

Hong Kong-based Artificial Life, Inc., a provider of mobile 3G technology and applications, have just announced that its flagship and award-winning 3G product: V-Girl – “Your Virtual Girlfriend” – will launch with 3 in Hong Kong today. WWJ has been following the roll-out of Artificial Life products over the last few months and we expect to see them in Japan very soon as the company is in negotiations with the major carriers here.

The new offering will be launched in English and Chinese (Cantonese) language simultaneously. In addition to the product itself, plenty of wallpapers, screensavers and ring-tones (true-tones) and video mails will be available for download as well.

“We are excited to finally go live with our flagship 3G product in Hong Kong. V-girl defines a completely new genre of mobile entertainment. It’s the first of its kind in the world: an intelligent, interactive game featuring 9 cute virtual girls and their lives. The richness and quality of the user experience is unseen so far in the mobile world.

V-girl contains hundreds of high quality 3D animated mini movies and dozens of mini games within the game. Players can play the game for months without repeating a single scene. 3 Hong Kong is the largest mobile operator in Hong Kong and the first operator in Hong Kong to launch the product” said Eberhard Schoeneburg, CEO of Artificial Life, Inc.
