Dallas, Texas – iBall Games of Soarion Mobile Entertainment today announces the release of Pro Beach Volleyball, a power-packed game for the iPhoneTM and iPod(R) touch. The game captures the energy, speed and athleticism of professional beach volleyball and is now available in Apple’s iTunes Store. Pro Beach Volleyball is a condensed version of a full real-life game played by women athletes.
iBall Games developers – including Stephen Wilkinson, executive vice president of development, and Eric Walker, Nathan Forsbach and other industry vets – have packed a remarkable level of realism and excitement into a very small package. “We’ve loaded Pro Beach Volleyball with features that sports gamers of all levels, volleyball players and fans are going to love,” says Charles Joyner, executive vice president of production. The result is a heart-pounding experience that gamers are going to want to play again and again.
Amazing worlds with 3D animation, music and sound effects: Pro Beach Volleyball captures the sun and sand of beaches in Mexico and California with realistic surroundings and cheering crowds. Multiple camera angles, original music, more than 60 sound effects and high-altitude flybys on every score add to the excitement.
True-to-life play: Motion capture of real athletes and painstaking blending give the onscreen players 15 authentic moves as they set, bump, spike, return and block. Gravity and a robust physics system make each shot behave like the real thing.
Unique control system: Fast, accurate controls give gamers total mastery of their players’ every move – and the unique intuitive design never blocks the action on the screen.
Video coaching: Instead of static help screens, in-game video coaching lets gamers master the skills they need to win – from basic to advanced.
iBall Games is finalizing the development of another volleyball game to be released soon. An enhanced, full version of Pro Beach Volleyball, the new game will feature an expanded cast of men and women athletes, live online play with other gamers, additional beach settings in Australia and the Tropics, two modes of play – amateur and pro – and the ability to play to an unlimited number of points.
System Requirements:
* iPhone or iPod Touch 2.0 or later

I don't know about you but I have trouble with some games on my iPhone. The resolution is fine but it is often just so darn small, that there are definitely some types of game where I believe the small screen size is always going to prevent them from being really user friendly.
