Asphalt 2: Urban GT for the DS is a hybrid of a simulation and an arcade racing game where players take some of the most sought-after cars and motorbikes for a rumbling spin on race tracks from all over the world. Winning races means taking in the prize money which can be used for purchasing new vehicles or upgrading current machines for more speed and power.
    
Gameloft's Asphalt 2: Urban GT features:

• 44 Licensed Vehicles of the most recognized and well-respected racing cars and motorbikes including Lamborghini, Mercedes, Ducati, Kawasaki, Dodge, Chevrolet and many more.
• 28 Tracks (including Reverse Mode) inspired by New York City, Tokyo, Paris and more.
• Dual screen and dual approach which give players a view of their progress as well as a sneaky look at their opponents on the bottom display of the DS.
• Customizable street machines for that unique look and motorpower.
• Outstanding 3D graphics that lend that high speed feeling matched by realistic engine rumbling sounds and original music that complement the urban environments.
• Ten gameplay modes, 62 championships with three camera angles and a replay feature to create a dynamic and immersive racing experience.
• Supports single and multiplayer racing up to 4 players using Wi-Fi wireless technology in three different multiplayer game modes.

The game also features the Pussycat Dolls as special guests. But wait! There's more. Players have the option to enjoy a jukebox mode to play tracks by Moby. Asphalt 2: Urban GT is set to be released in November.
