Turner Broadcasting extends distribution deal with GlobalFun

London, December 20 2007 - Turner Broadcasting and GlobalFun has today announced that it has extended its agreement with GlobalFun to distribute a raft of new Turner mobile games.

The wireless entertainment, development and publishing company GlobalFun, www.globalfun.com, will distribute the games across Europe, Middle East and Africa to compliment Turner's existing distribution network.

Games falling under this new deal are "Scooby Doo: Saving Shaggy", "Hong Kong Phooey: Kung Fu Capers", "Dexter's Laboratory: Brain Reaction" and "Cow and Chicken: Super Cow Adventure".

All shows are hugely popular on Turner Broadcasting kids' channels - Cartoon Network, Boomerang and Cartoon Network Too - and it is intended that the games will replicate this success.
