Cars, stunts and loads of challenges with Top Gear Stunt School for the BlackBerry PlayBook

Posted by James Richardson on 20 Sep 2012 10:11 am
If you own a TV I am pretty sure you would have heard of the BBC TV show Top Gear. If not, then you have missed out. Anyway, the Top Gear Stunt School game has made its way to App World for the PlayBook in the last week or so and it's quite a beauty, although very testing and as you will see from the video I am no expert! But if you are into your driving games this one will cheer you up...

Can you guess the word with Hangman Challenge for BlackBerry smartphones?

Posted by James Richardson on 6 Sep 2012 4:03 pm
When it comes to playing Hangman on your BlackBerry there are a few options. Hangman Challenge arrived in App World this week so I thought I would give it a whirl. I have always been pretty poor at playing hangman and, as you can see in the video, nothing has changed. However I wanted to give this particular game a go as from the screen shots it looked pretty nice on the eye. Once in...

Fancy a bit of off-road racing? Check out Acceler8 for the BlackBerry PlayBook

Posted by James Richardson on 2 Sep 2012 4:45 pm
When it comes to decent driving games on the BlackBerry PlayBook there isn't a huge list of options. We do have some good ones, but the selection is quite small compared to other operating systems. Acceler8 is new to the PlayBook and I am happy to say that it falls neatly into the category of quality games. If you fancy testing your racing skills off road then you should definitely pick up...

Modern Combat 3: Fallen Nation arrives for the BlackBerry PlayBook - Time to shoot some bad guys!

Posted by James Richardson on 31 Aug 2012 1:40 pm
Fantastic news today for BlackBerry PlayBook owners. Visiting App World earlier I discovered Modern Combat 3: Fallen Nation was available to download. Modern Combat 2: Black Pegasus has always been a favourite of mine on the PlayBook so it's great that we finally get the sequel. If you enjoy shooting bad dudes and blowing stuff up this one is a must have app. Priced at $3.00 it won't break the...

Another fine game has become available for the Blackberry PlayBook this week. Already a big success on iOS and Android, Pop Corny brings fun and great graphics to the BlackBerry tablet OS. The aim of the game is quite simple - to feed Pop Corny the pop corn. In order to do this you must shoot the corn to make it pop and then Pop Corny can eat it up. Of course it isn't quite that straight...

Also remember that the PlayBook will get an upgrade to Blackberry 10 in the future so it will rock even more. This article is really aimed at those...

Caveman HD comes to the BlackBerry PlayBook

Posted by James Richardson on 10 Jul 2012 9:14 am
You may remember that last month whilst at BB10 Jam in London I reordered a short preview video of Caveman HD for the BlackBerry PlayBook and soon to be BlackBerry 10. If the game looked of interest you will be pleased to know that it has arrived in App World for the PlayBook today. The game is a modern take on the early 1990's game Lemmings that I am sure many of you are familiar...

Play Four-In-A-Row with your BBM buddies with Captain's Mistress for BlackBerry smartphones

Posted by James Richardson on 7 Jul 2012 2:37 pm
Playing Four-In-A-Row (Connect Four) may not be the most exciting game in the world but thanks to Captain's Mistress you can now play the game with your BBM friends. The game has three options: play against the computer, face to face or BBM, and it is the BBM connected feature that really attracted me to the app. Simply invite a BBM contact to play a game with you and you're off. As you can...
