3UK has put up a couple of multi-player mobile games from Synergenix which allow people to buy lives and join multiplayer games. “Each multiplayer game costs GBP 0.50, for which players gain four lives to battle it out against real opponents in Lock ‘n Load Combat Arena, or three races to compete with friends in Rally Pro Contest MP.”
The release says that “the games will remain stored on the handsets and players can join a new multiplayer game whenever they wish”, but I’m not sure if there’s a time limit on the lives. For example, if you get killed twice in Lock ‘n’ Load can you keep the other two lives to play the next week? If so I think it’s pretty cool…and of course the game will get cheaper as you gain skill…
