I don't often play games on my BlackBerry devices, but there are a few I will check out and keep for killing time on the daily commute. The most recent game I have installed is Metal Pixels. If you like challenging games, Metal Pixels may be one to look out for. You're basically a heavy metal dude wielding a guitar and you're out to attack the creatures/animals that come your way.

There are two controls. The right button is for jumping, and the left button is a for a jump attack. The right button also acts as the Start button. If you get through to the end, there is a final attack that you can perform but I have yet to reach that point. If you do manage to get there, you can unlock other characters to play with.

That's all there really is to the game. But be warned, it is a challenging game, and if you watch the video, you'll see how not to play the game. Though that is what keeps me playing as, I want to keep beating my score.
