world cup 2010 mobile apps

In case it had passed you by, the 2010 World Cup finals kick off this weekend in South Africa and to celebrate the greatest sporting event of all, almost everything in the media at present appears to have a World Cup theme.

Mobile applications are no exception to the rule and there are an abundance of apps available featuring football games, live score and news information, star player profiles and much more.

If you have a Nokia mobile device the range of World Cup apps in the Ovi store is growing on a daily basis, fans from all over the globe are invited to download wallpaper featuring their national team colours and theme to brighten up the appearance of their mobiles.

The EA Sports 2010 FIFA World Cup game is apparently the only official game for mobiles and is available on Ovi for only £4.00  which looks good value if you fancy playing out the finals in your armchair or on the commute to work.

For only £1.00 you can own Fantasy World Cup, where you are invited to assemble a team of top players from the 32 competing nations, with points awarded for each players real life performances in the competition.

There are a stack of mobile apps offering Live updates, scores and stats, in fact everything that you could possibly want to know, always available to impress your mates down the pub or simply to keep in touch with any games that you are unable to watch.

Even the free Fring app that connects you to all IMs and Social Media sites for FREE calls is listed as the must have World Cup app, inviting fans to keep connected during the games & share your World Cup excitement with your friends, live!

Sat amongst the long list of World Cup apps is one that is just begging to be downloaded, though again not just for the World Cup. It is called The Special One Speaks and promises a personal supply of wit and wisdom from Jose Mourinho.

‘Call upon The Special One at any time for an instant quote to inspire, amuse and console you and your friends throughout the World Cup and beyond.’

Check out all the World Cup mobile apps at the Nokia Ovi store and let us know your personal favourites or the ones that should be avoided!
