N900: First Bounce Evolution Game Screenshot Leaked

Written by Apocalypso.

bounce_maemoIt's not much, in fact, but Swedish-language mobile portal, has posted what is claimed to be the first screenshot of the Bounce Evolution game, about which we posted the first info and short video demo couple of weeks ago.

Anyway, I guess most of you will agree that only way to test the phone's 3D graphics performance (more about you can read right here) is to run some heavy-duty 3D game using it and at the risk of repeating myself, I must reiterate that that Bounce Evolution is indeed heavy-duty game that undoubtedly show the real power of the build in hardware.
