Verizon Wireless And Capcom Interactive Announce The Launch Of “Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader? 2009” In North America

Latest Edition of Hit Franchise Now Available To Verizon Wireless Customers.

SAN FRANCISCO, CA, BASKING RIDGE, NJ, and LOS ANGELES, CA — From CTIA WIRELESS I.T. & Entertainment 2008 in San Francisco, Verizon Wireless, builder and operator of the nation’s most reliable wireless voice and data network, Capcom® Interactive, Inc. and Fox Mobile Entertainment today announced the release of “Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader?™ 2009,” the sequel to one of the top-selling mobile games of the past year. This follows the launch of the highly acclaimed and top-selling “Street Fighter™ II: The New Challengers” and “Mega Man™ III” mobile games.

Based on the hit primetime game show on FOX, “Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader? 2009” features all the charm, humor and deceptively difficult questions that made the television show a household name. In the game, players are asked a series of up to eleven questions ranging from subjects like U.S. history, math or social studies. Perform well and players can work their way to the $1 million question…choke and they’ll be forced to utter the unenviable phrase “I’m not smarter than a 5th grader.”

Verizon Wireless customers can purchase and download “Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader? 2009” from the What’s Hot category in the Games shopping aisle of the Get It Now® or Media Center virtual store on their Verizon Wireless phones. “Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader? 2009” is available for $3.49 monthly subscription or $7.99 for unlimited use purchase on a number of popular phones from Verizon Wireless, including the Voyager™ by LG, LG Dare™, LG Chocolate™ 3, LG Decoy™ and Samsung Glyde™.
