Real Racing for iPhone to sport online multiplayer
Firemint has previewed a new game in development for the iPhone. Titled Real Racing, it features accelerometer-based driving, but also the rare option of head-to-head play over Wi-Fi or cellular networks, including support for creating mini-leagues with friends. Its Australian developer has also spoke of features such as associated Facebook and OpenSocial applications, which will let users show off their stats through social networks.
Firemint also hopes to take advantage of YouTube, by uploading a video of the best lap whenever a time is submitted to leaderboards. The game is expected to be released before Christmas this year, and will likely be available for the iPhone and several Nokia devices through a Symbian port.

Grammer?
developer also spoke of... or, developer has also spoken of...
Can I get a ruling?!! ;)
Pot or kettle?
Either one would suffice. I had to chuckle that you criticized the author's grammar and then you misspelled "grammar" in the subject line. No personal attack was intended, just an observation.
Grammar?
Grammer?... or Grammar?..
Can I get a ruling?!! ;)
Oh Happy Day!
Praise Jebus! Finally, some multiplayer games that are not 3D pong... I can't wait to get this game; these guys are going to print money with this thing.
HA!
Yeah. I'm no english language scholar. English is my second language, and I don't have a first. :P :)
I have big feet.
My gram'mer always told me I had "a fine under standing."
Hee!
Re: pot/kettle
Yeah, but he wasn't complaining about spelling, only grammar. Completely different thing.
