Asphalt: Urban GT 2 is a 3D racing game which was developed and published by Gameloft in 2005, following the
success of last year's Asphalt: Urban GT game of 2004. The game also features a special appearance from The Pussycat Dolls and a sample of Moby's hit single "Lift Me Up". The game was released in different variations, which differed drastically because of device limitations - the Java versions for mobile phones were made into a pseudo-3D game because of memory, hardware and software limitations that cellphone manufacturers made to their phones in order to keep the price down. The Nintendo DS version was released approximately a year after the N-Gage version, with improved graphics, sound, and dual screen compatibility. A PSP version has been confirmed as well. The gameplay of Urban GT 2 is often compared to Burnout, Need for Speed and other titles because players can eliminate opponents (by bumping them), as well as avoiding the police. There is a "WANTED" meter which determines the awareness level of the police - if the red WANTED light flashes it usually means that the players must do what it takes to avoid the police - otherwise they might lose their money.
