Blaze Launches 3D Real-Time Multiplayer First-Person Shooter Action
Stockholm, Sweden, June 21th 2006. Blaze,
one of the leading mobile game publishers, today announced
the sequel in the critically acclaimed Lock 'n Load series.
The new installment is the first to use Terraplay's MOVE 3.1

pushes the mobile hardware to its limits and will overshadow
all mobile 3D first-person shooters" comments Martin
Forsling, Blaze's European General Manager. "Our multiplayer
