Shadowgun 3rd Person Shooter Free for PlayBook!

Union has released Shadowgun, the same game that was showcased at BlackBerry Jam Americas last week. I had no idea there were plans to release the game for PlayBook, so this is a nice surprise for sure. Shadowgun is a full fledged 3rd person shooter and is definitely priced right. At just shy of 350 MB, its a good sized game and should prove to be an effective time waster. I’ve fired it up a few times now and the story isn’t amazing but the controls are intuitive and I enjoy taking cover, then popping out and destroying the baddies. It reminds me a little bit of the Time Cop arcade games.
