Wink Streets of Mumbai setting for Video Game...!!!


hi mates,

Welcome to the racing tracks of Streets of Mumbai, the first online game to be set on the city’s roads, geared for a worldwide release in March.

You are standing at a traffic signal, waiting for the lights to change, as a local train pulls past Charni Road station. Just as the light turns green and you step on the gas, a beggar runs across the road. You hit him. Apart from going to jail, you lose 100 points.

The boom in the Indian gaming industry, which crossed the $50 million (Rs 200 crore) mark, is demanding indigenous themes and Mumbai seems to be making a head start.
