Back in November of 2009 we posted an interview with RIM executives regarding what BlackBerry users could expect in 2010. One of the things discussed was something called OpenGL support. OpenGL, in a nutshell, allows devices like BlackBerry smartphones to support graphic intensive applications. Well keeping true to their word, today EA Mobile launched Need For Speed Shift 3D for the BlackBerry Storm2. If you haven’t watched the video yet, it is absolutely stunning to see this style of game play and graphics finally come to BlackBerry. Here are the features you get in the game:
- Take a Real Racer’s Point of View – The dynamic camera angle gives you a hyper-realistic driving experience.
- Get Precision Fingertip Control – Touch to break, swipe to activate boost, and activate drift with a quick tilt of your device. Finely tuned accelerometer steering and touch controls respond to you.
- Choose Muscle or Performance or Both – Purchase, upgrade, and personalize cars in the Career Mode workshop.
- Race to the Top – Get gold stars for winning events and bonus blue stars for driving with precision and aggression. Get enough, and unlock more thrilling and challenging events!
Need for Speed Shift 3D is currently available in BlackBerry App World for just $9.99, but you must have a BlackBerry Storm2 to download it. Currently only the Storm 2 and the BlackBerry 8530 support the OpenGL Platform.
