Over the weekend one of my friends was a complete broken record. Every few minutes the conversation turned back to how Iron Man is going to be an awesome movie and how I HAVE to see it on Saturday night. It turns out I did not see it (Went out for a drink instead ) [...]

We told you before that this was going to drop this week. Magmic ran a little behind schedule but this is sure going to be worth it. Even better is the fact that the game has a free trial! The bad side is that the game costs significantly more than the previous versions at $14.99. [...]

I just got a heads up that bPlay and Magmic are releasing a new version of Texas Hold’em King. The release is set for the beginning of next week but that is not definite. There are some seriously cool new features being added to this version of Texas Hold’em that I am sure many of [...]

This is just a quick one everybody. TheStreet.com has posted some live footage of Guitar Hero Mobile in action that they took during CTIA at RIM’s booth. They have Magmic’s Marketing Manager Andy Sparks walking them through the game on a BlackBerry Pearl II from what I can tell. It gives you a pretty good [...]

This one is called Rosie’s Revenge and is available for $6.95 from Enigma games. Rosie’s Revenge is the only First Person Fighting game I know of for BlackBerry so it [...]

Review: Guitar Hero Mobile by Magmic/BplayRating: 9/10Cost: $14.99 (1 time fee) or $4.49/month subscriptionWebsite: www.bplay.com
Bplay has done a wonderful job of recreating the Guitar Hero experience on the BlackBerry. I was forced to dock a whole point off the rating for one simple reason. The controls are a bit clumsy on the curve or 8800 series. On [...]

Okay this has to be some of the best news I have heard all day even with CTIA kicking off. Bplay is now selling Guitar Hero for a one time purchase price of $14.99. The initial game comes with 15 tracks. With the one-time purchase, you will have access to an additional three tracks issued [...]

Personally I am not that happy with EA Mobile’s half hearted attempts to create BlackBerry games. They just don’t seem to follow through. After CES they had a giveaway for one BlackBerry game and their website would not even let you purchase the BlackBerry games. It was like they did not even bother.
Well now at [...]

Magmic has come through on their release schedule by putting out two new games today. The best part is that they have managed to get a 24 hour trial for Big Kahuna Words. This is a big step for Bplay since many previous games did not have trials. Hopefully this will pan out for more [...]

I was just reading a hilarious post on BlackBerryForums.com describing on to cheat in BrickBreaker. I tried it on my 8310 Curve with no luck but users are reporting back that it does work on the Pearl. This is not a whole complex cheat system but rather just a way to skip levels.
