One month ago to the day I made a blog post here about the availability of Tank Recon 3D for the BlackBerry Storm2, which is an awesome first person shooter game that puts you in the seat of a tank as you go through various missions shooting down planes, AT guns, tanks and more. When I first made the announcement post about Tank Recon 3D I only posted a couple of screen captures, but now we have two videos (one above, one below) you can watch that show off Tank Recon 3D's gameplay and 3D graphics in much more detail. I've spent quite a few hours now playing this game on my BlackBerry Storm2 - it definitely gets my two thumbs up!

Leigh let me know he's been hard at work on his latest creation, Tank Recon 3D. This is one of the first games to take advantage of the OpenGL ES support on the Storm2, and features amazing 3D graphics. The game puts you in the drivers seat of a tank through various missions, shooting down planes, AT guns, tanks and more.

You're the Commander of a lone recon tank charged with a mission that will help end the 12 year war with the Hepion. We have developed a new advanced tank, code named Alpha. It seems that the wretched Hepion has also managed to develop their own tank, code named Beta. The race is on to see who can field their tanks first.

In a bold move and in an effort to curve the development of the Hepion tank Beta, our commanders have decided to send out our pearl. Like a raging storm, our Alpha is being rushed into a dangerous tour of duty to save our world.

There are multiple different levels, story mode and instant-action mode, ability to set your own music as the soundtrack, leaderboard and more. Tank Recon 3D really does look great on the Storm2, so if you're a fan of this type of game at all I definitely recommend picking it up. It sells for $7.99 in the CrackBerry App Store (a bit higher than most games, but given the work that went into it totally worth it).

Big fan of the oriiginal best-selling game for BlackBerry, Freddy Falling? If so, then then you'll love the next game in the Freddy Falling series called Freddy Jump. New from Lone Dwarf Games, this one is addictive! If you're rocking a touchscreen BlackBerry, Freddy Jump uses your Storm's accelerometer to control Freddy as he bounces his way up and up. During your climb you will encounter such things as spring pads, jet packs, and the umbrella which slows your descent, giving Freddy maximum maneuvering time. With Freddy Jump you can also save your current game, submit high score to the internet, and my favorite feature, select the background song straight from your BlackBerry's media. You can download Freddy Jump from the CrackBerry App Store for $3.99 and is available for all touchscreen and non-touchscreen devices with OS 4.5 or higher. And if you grab it today you can save 50 cents!
