Sweet. Except of course the trailer isn't specifically for Playbook but hopefully it'll have killer graphics as well.

would pay up to 10$ for NHL 2012 on Playbook.

+10 , I'd pay up to $15 for NHL 2012 on the Playbook!

Isn't 10+10=20? :)>

+30
I'm surprised Balsille didn't make sure NHL 2012 got on the PB first.
Maybe he's looking at buying a football team now :)

He's still bitter about not being about to buy the Preds and move them.

I'm not a big football fan, personally I'd love to see NHL 12 on the PlayBook. But this is definitely great news to see such a high profile game ported over. Keep it up EA.

Who was the bozo who started the rumor in the forums that EA is dropping support for PlayBook? DISCREDITED!

YEEEEEEESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!! I have been waiting for a game like this forever!!!!!

I'm getting an error saying its currently being updated. Anyone else getting this?

 
 
Posted by trsbbs Friday, Nov 11, 2011 195 days ago

Tried to download this and got an error. Something about being updated and available in 24 hours.

Has anyone been able to download it successfully? I keep getting an error "this item is being updated check back in 24 hours"

They had to make a last minute change to show that Peyton Hillis is out with a torn labia.

I have it downloaded here. I'm about to try it out now.

No luck here. I get a paypal error (3300) - only for Madden.

 
 
Posted by d0gzilla74 Friday, Nov 11, 2011 195 days ago

same here.. error 3300

 
 
Posted by JasW Friday, Nov 11, 2011 195 days ago

Same old, same old. See EA's Need for Speed Shift on OS7. Lots of hype around here and it was pulled by EA.

This is a good sign that they've got game developers taking the platform seriously. I really hope RIM doesn't force me to buy these games and apps again for my future BBX phone. It would be great to be able to run ALL your apps on the Playbook or BBX phone...Maybe even have a cloud game save, so I can play at home then continue on the phone when I leave the house.

 
 
Posted by jl_06 Friday, Nov 11, 2011 195 days ago

great job! lets get fifa 12 on the playbook too!

 
 
Posted by kevin.mcca Friday, Nov 11, 2011 195 days ago

+1

 
 
Posted by bbhybridchris Friday, Nov 11, 2011 195 days ago

Yes I would love to see FIFA 12 and NHL 12 as well...would be freaking awesome!! Own both of those games for my PS3 and would be cool to have them on the go with the playbook as well!!

 
 
Posted by bobby_boy Friday, Nov 11, 2011 195 days ago

Seeing the video clip on my bold9900 blows me away! I will be buying this game for sure for the playbook!

*edit* whoops quoted wrong post

 
 
Posted by rapsball4 Friday, Nov 11, 2011 195 days ago

Love it. I don't normally play games. I've only bought one so far for PlayBook (the RPG Eternal Legacy - great game), but this is a pretty good bet at being the second.

 
 
Posted by nycccemtp Friday, Nov 11, 2011 195 days ago

saw it at the top of the new releases in PB AW when i woke up a little while ago and immediately went to DL (remember buying M94 with money I worked for at 13 years old).... but same 24 hrs error... hopefully before i go to work tonite I can get it that would be tits

More awesome content coming in every day. Love it.

 
 
Posted by Douglasfx Friday, Nov 11, 2011 195 days ago

Are you kidding me??? it says that is not supported by my current device profile....is this an error or a joke??? looks like they don't want everybody to have their game.

 
 
Posted by carnicelli_713 Friday, Nov 11, 2011 195 days ago

Is this os2 compatible? Anyone checked?

 
 
Posted by strider2112 Friday, Nov 11, 2011 195 days ago

Are there no real screenshots/gameplay for the actual app (I don't have my PlayBook with me at the time so I can't go to the App World download)?

 
 
Posted by shoshin Friday, Nov 11, 2011 195 days ago

The screenshots in App World look pretty great. I'm psyched. Still unable to purchase as of right now, due to the "24 hour" error others have reported. But at least we're getting the error BEFORE spending our money, and not after, so there's really no reason to complain. I'm just happy knowing we're even getting Madden.

NHL12 please!! Awesome to see games like this being released!

 
 
Posted by irsan Friday, Nov 11, 2011 195 days ago

Errorrrrr 3300...RIM please fix it

 
 
Posted by Abrante Friday, Nov 11, 2011 195 days ago

This game is in the "gift" folder on AppWorld. I knew RIM would do right by its customers :) Just kidding!!! Still getting the 3300 error :o(

 
 
Posted by bb.pl Friday, Nov 11, 2011 195 days ago

Amazing the number of ways Rim can fu@k up. EA releases a great game and it gives an error when I try to download. Aren't there any freakin QA on the apps? Its not like develpoers are releasing hundreds of apps every day that you can't test them before release...Its all crappy ebooks day after day and Rim can't get a decent app actually can be downloaded before its released....the clown duos are running this company to the ground.

 
 
Posted by Auli Saturday, Nov 12, 2011 195 days ago

Did you know about the numerous apps from gameloft and EA that was smooth from launch to download ?

 
 
Posted by ifarlow Saturday, Nov 12, 2011 194 days ago

You do realize that EA may be responsible for the error, right? But then, you likely don't realize since that doesn't fit with your "RIM is a disaster" theory, right? No, it's not possible for people like you that are so determined to find fault with RIM to see that others make mistakes as well and sometimes, just sometimes, RIM actually hasn't done anything wrong.

Let me guess... when there was a wide-spread ISP outage recently, that was RIM's fault? Or when IM+ had a purchase price error caused by Shape, that was somehow RIM's fault too?

Yeah, I get it... RIM has made plenty of mistakes lately. But you are so focused on finding RIM's screw-ups that at this point you simply blame them for everything. Give it a rest. RIM doesn't get everything wrong, no matter how hard you try to suggest they do.

Anyone know if it will run on the 2.0 Beta?

 
 
Posted by martinjdub Friday, Nov 11, 2011 195 days ago

For The RIMPIRE

 
 
Posted by tprime Saturday, Nov 12, 2011 195 days ago

downloadable now

 
 
Posted by paulomalley Saturday, Nov 12, 2011 195 days ago

NOT EVEN IN THE APP STORE HERE IN OZ!!!! AAAAARRRRGGGGHHH!

 
 
Posted by webslinger1 Saturday, Nov 12, 2011 194 days ago

I vowed not to buy anything off of Appworld until they gave us 2.0. Damn you RIM! You're not playing fair! (Presses Purchase) it's not fair...it's not fair...

 
 
Posted by Sgian_Dubh Saturday, Nov 12, 2011 194 days ago

Got it. SWEET!

 
 
Posted by koool1 Saturday, Nov 12, 2011 194 days ago

Awesome game, thanks EA!!!

 
 
Posted by ssjtiamat Saturday, Nov 12, 2011 194 days ago

C'mon now everyone. Can this really be that good? $60 on PS3 and Xbox and a $tablet is selling it for $7? Can anyone say "you get what you pay for?" It just does not make sense and it would stand to reason that the game could not be that great?

I could be completely wrong however. I of course do not own a Playbook. I am just asking the simple question, how good can it be? Without an actual controller, I just see a game like this being a pain in the you know what to actually play with any seriousness. Someone please tell me if I am wrong. Someone who has actually played the game though please.

Re: above - I think if people wanted the full $60 game they need the time, a large enough screen and physical controls to satisfy their hunger for a game with this much depth. I see the mobile version of Madden as being a great time waster on the couch or in bed at night or even to fit in a quick game on the bus in to work in the morning. It's like Dead Space - It's been recreated for the mobile market and the Playbook is a great platform to execute HD graphics on a screen with enough space to efficiently use multitouch controls. People are paying $7 or £7 for a mobile game, not a console release. I dare say madden fans will get both for gaming on the go and in the living room if they like it that much.

In other news - woke up this morning to find Madden available in the UK. YUS!!! Needed a solid sports game, Real Football 2011 just wasn't cutting it for me and Let's Golf 2 is great but far too cutesy. Time for some hardcore Playbooking... ooon my playbook. Ha!
