ZX Spectrum: Elite Collection might be a hard sell to those who have never played on a Spectrum or other 8 bit computer before. For those who have though, it's an ideal walk down memory lane and really reinforces how far technology has come.

A sound game indeed. While it is a little easy for Bust-A-Move veterans thanks to the huge arrow directing your aim, it still provides you with just what you want and the addition of boss battles and the Jump Shot ability is bound to enthral fans.

Gameloft did just right with Let's Golf! 2. They gave the game more international flavor, more colorful characters, and improved game play, all while maintaining everything that made the first Let's Golf! so great. Let's Golf! 2 is an amazing game that any fan of casual sports games should pick up.

It's charming throughout and very easy to get into, while not sacrificing depth too much. Here's hoping for an update or two offering Game Center support, new items and other delights.

We loved Dark Nebula: Episode One, but were saddened by its length-Episode Two "only" has twenty levels, but they're all fantastic.

A score-focused RPG has a lot of potential indeed and is certainly an unique idea. For now though, you might find yourself longing for a little more depth.

Infinity Field may lack in the originality department, but it does not lack in the fun department.

At the end of the day, fans of immersive horror games will enjoy the fantastic cinematics of Hysteria Project 2. There's no question in my mind that this is the scariest game in the App Store, but it could be so much more.

League of Evil is a supernova – shining brightly for a brief moment before it fades away.

I think it's pretty safe to say that Megan and the Giant is a middling action/puzzle title that will appeal to fans of the genre but not many others.

Drag Racer: Pro Tuner is a heck of a lot of fun, once you put the effort in.

Aside from my micromanagement woes, I like the path that Legendary War takes with the graphics and the story. Both are rich with detail, but not so crazy that you don't know what's going on. In other words, it's pretty and in-depth, but never confusing or hopeless.

If you liked Riven the first time around, or loved Myst and never played Riven, you'll really enjoy this blast from the past.

RISK is still a solid, fun game; how could it not be? Strategy fans and RISK faithful in particular should enjoy it; the epic, sprawling games are highly engaging. Just be aware that there are many, many clones…some of which surely outshine this stripped-down port.

For the most part, Risk on the iPad is a great value and a worthy representation of the franchise. It may not be as deep as its tabletop counterpart, but it's still very enjoyable and a great way to get newcomers hooked on the franchise.

In the end, I don't know who this game is for. The coming-of-age plot and cheap character designs might appeal to a kid, but a fair number of the puzzles would be too challenging for someone under ten.

The bottom line is that you could replace Tony Stark/Iron Man with any other character/villain combination and this game would be the same.

While prolonged play gets repetitious, it's perfect for a few minutes of undead fun.

The graphics are excellent and the sound effects are good, too.

A clever, beautiful, vibrant game that will tickle your visual-auditory fancy. Its sublime levels, decorated with rich, textured art and graphics and polished, engrossing game play will entice you into playing over and again.

Osmos for iPad is a game that plays about as beautifully as it looks. It's tranquil, yet it can be intense; it can be thoughtful, but require quick reactions.

If physics puzzles are your thing, don't hesitate to pick the game up, just be sure to send the guys over at vol-2 an email explaining your need for more levels.

NOVA has oodles of polish, and it's incredibly easy to forget that you're playing a game on your iPod. With a fleshed-out single-player mode and a solid multiplayer option, NOVA has it all. It's beautiful, the controls are great, and even multiplayer doesn't lag.

The moral of this story is that if you are desperate for some football action, Gameloft would love to sell you a copy of NFL 2011.

It's not my favorite app, but it's definitely one of the most polished in my library, and absolutely takes advantage of the fantastic iDevice hardware.

Sit back and unleash tough justice on illegal racing with supercars turned police cars; Hot Pursuit is engaging until the end.

While able to be called "sufficient," considering there are no other licensed basketball titles in the App Store, NBA Elite 11 falls far short of what should be expected for an iOS sports game.

For a quick iPhone romp, Naughty Bear really isn't a bad selection. It doesn't have a ton of depth and the whole gameplay aspect is lacking, but it is fairly entertaining.

In spite of these flaws Mr. Bill is a delightful trip down memory lane for those who knew him, and a fun and wacky experience for those who don't.

It's really not hard for me to say that Modern Combat 2 is my favorite iPhone FPS.

Mirror's Edge may be short, and not fully rid of the horrid combat that has brought its other incarnations down, but it still is a fantastic agile urban platformer that shines more than it ever did on the consoles.

What I want developers like EA and Gameloft (NFL 2011) to understand is that people don't want to play full simulation football on a tiny screen. They want to play a football game that is designed for a mobile device, one that gets rid of all the complexities that bog down the console version and only has the fun stuff.

Lego Harry Potter is simply stunning. For $4.99 you get a good 15 hours or so of gameplay and it's all excellent fun.

Fans of dual stick shooters will be treated with possibly the most polished birds eye shooter in the App Store.

There's something sweet about seeing a simple concept executed well. The Incident is a great game that offers up a fun time with well-crafted retro sensibilities, and it's sure to appeal to a lot of iOS gamers. Download it today.

While Catacombs failed to keep my attention for any more longer than an hour due to its repetitive nature throughout its levels, for its low price and addictive elements it's definitely, in my opinion, worth a look.

A simple game. It's run-and-jump, over and over again; the only semblance of "depth" comes with the online leaderboards.

An extremely well put together, although short experience. The controls are on the cusp of being perfect for the genre, the graphics and sound are top notch, and the online gameplay is definitely a glimpse into what iPhone FPS multiplayer will be like.

As questionable as things may seem though, Caligo Chaser's individual parts come together to form a great whole.

Braveheart manages to entertain for a short while but then it quickly starts to wear thin.

There's a lot of replay value between the Phobic tokens, the keys, and the Plus+ leaderboards, and rolling through the levels is a lot of fun.

While Bit Pilot, at face value, may not seem to have much to offer, the exact opposite is true; it's a deceptively-intense game with a lot of personality, fluid controls and a thought-provoking soundtrack.

The marriage of pixel art and beat machine is a match made in heaven, and brings some welcome innovation to the rhythm game genre.

Battle Blasters is a very consistent effort that looks and plays equally well. While pretty satisfying when played for short bursts, those looking to master the game will be rewarded by the game's subtle nuances.

A successful, improved prequel to the original. Its game play, saturated with intense action, colorful graphics and humor, is fun and satisfying.

With a funny storyline, 142 rounds of 3D action set across 34 locations, bonus levels, power ups and varied gameplay controls, Banzai Rabbit is fun, challenging and nostalgically appealing. If you do one thing for Johnny, man, get this game.

If you were a fan of the first Backbreaker Football, you'll absolutely love Backbreaker 2.

The resulting game is a smart, well thought out platformer that will challenge even the most experienced gamers.

At the end of the day, Asphalt 5 does not presume to be anything else than what it is, and that's a flat-out arcade racer. It succeeds in its mission, and does so without taking itself too seriously, making it both charming and fun.

One of the App Store's lesser-known treasures.

Alpine Crawler World is a fun, remarkable, well-polished feat of gaming gold worthy of a place within your iPhone/iPod Touch's game library. The real-time physics game play, sound and graphics provide an addictive, enjoyable game play experience you'll find hard to put down.

With great visuals, fun levels, and enough off-road vehicles to keep things fun, Alpine Crawler Wild will keep even the most hard core side scrolling racing fans entertained for quite some time.

Those who love games in the line-drawing genre should definitely check this title out. It's a worthy investment which cleverly integrates classic, line-drawing game play philosophies with fast-paced, sometimes hectic, strategy/action.

Anyone into either zombie games, or the dual stick control scheme, should give this game a shot. It's not an extremely deep game, but it does a nice job of combining zombie destruction, linear levels, and dual stick shooting into a nice brain eating package.

Across Age's story line brings a lot to the table.

At the end of the day, Cop seems like a low to middling budget point and click adventure that is deeply scarred by a miserable control system.

A great, simple baseball game that is only hindered by my previous addiction to Homerun Battle 3D. I love the simplicity of the game itself and find myself playing the game at times when I'm definitely not supposed to (like in the bathroom), but with a better batting system, smoother graphics and fonts, and a simplified upgrade system, this one would be a true, must have game.

There's enough new here to make it seem fresh, and those elements that are repetitive are so well executed it's hard to complain about them.

If you like old school RPG's and don't need flashy 3D effects or mind-numbing puzzles, Inotia 3 is just the game for you. It won't challenge you too much, but you'll be entertained by Inotia 3 far longer than the vast majority of the other games on the platform.

It's the kind of game that you'll find yourself playing obsessively at first, but even after the initial excitement has gone, you'll still be returning to it daily for the next challenge.

The game is never-ending really. You just keep going, trying to last as long as possible while taking on new monsters.

I'm all for a good story, but tapping on arrows to navigate scene by scene is just tedious in todays marketplace… even on a mobile device.

There is absolutely no point to Doodle God, other than "gotta catch 'em all!" But, in some weird way…it's addictive. Insanely so.

Dizzypad lives up to Nimblebit's previous strong track record, delivering a fun, well-rounded, casual and visually good-looking gaming experience which is both addictive and at the same time, a joy to play.

While the intangibles are all there, Deep Deep Dungeon lacks the depth of play that separates a good games from a mediocre one.

If you like Canabalt style games and are looking for a twist on the genre, you'll enjoy Dead Runner. It's fast paced, looks nice, and has that great OpenFeint leaderboard that I know you want to crack.

The main failing for Dead Rising Mobile is that it just isn't interesting enough.

Sure, you could look at Liberty Wings as a 3 in 1 game box, and in that sense Liberty Wings is a good value (mostly at its 99 cent asking price). Just don't confuse a good value with an amazing game, as there are much better plane shooters out there in the App Store.

While Iron Wars may not necessarily bring anything new to the table, it is certainly an amusing jaunt back into the world of iOS shooters.

It's a fun little title. Perhaps not one that you'd play for hours on end, if nothing else your brain would slowly implode from all the sums. It's also solely for the enjoyment. There's no sign of a leaderboard or achievements or anything like that.

Boom Boat is a fun little game all in all. The controls are a little sensitive at times so it'd be nice if you could adjust the tilt sensitivity. Other than this though, it's attractive fun and its star system will scratch an itch that completing Angry Birds left behind.

While I don't see Crap of Defense winning many game of the year awards, I do think that it is a top notch time waster with a style of its own.

With its high level of polish and fun graphics, it's hard not to recommend CvZ, but it just isn't that enjoyable past a few levels. The whole system, in my opinion, needs to be reworked to make better use of the western town.

It's a game of logic and strategy, experimentation and folding. If you like puzzles at all, you owe it to yourself to grab this little beauty.

If I had to sum up the game, I'd class it as a good fun-filled time passer, my only little caveat being that because of the true repetitive nature of the puzzles within Cogs, the game didn't seem to have as much replay value as I probably was expecting from it, or would have liked it to of had.

Clumsy Bob is as fun as he is adorable.

If you enjoyed the original Chopper, you will absolutely love Chopper 2. The graphics are better, the game is more epic, and most importantly… it's more Chopper.

I do not hesitate to claim that Chaos Rings has the potential to change iDevice gaming as we know it, and for the better.

If you're looking for a deep, intelligent hunting sim, Carnivores: Dinosaur Hunter is ideal. The added bonus of hunting dinosaurs rather than conventional animals just makes it all the more intriguing a proposition.

It's just hard to come up with a list of complaints about this game, because of how well made it is. Blue Defense: Second Wave is original, intense, addictive, and most of all, fun. Fan of action games on iOS deserve to give this game a shot.

For $2.99 this is a very fun, well-developed game worthy of your time. Don't make me send my army of balloons after you if you don't give it a shot.

If you love strategy games, you'll love it. But the drawbacks-sometimes wonky controls, thin multiplayer offerings, and no autosave-can get annoying.

Baseball Superstars 2011 is still far from being a perfect game, and the changes in this year's version are really only minor tweaks to the overall formula. But the minor tweaks add up to make this a better game, in some ways, even if the pitching is still far from perfect.

The gameplay is addicting and even with a clear end to the game, it'll take you some hours to finish. Everything is well-balanced, and the evolution of the game as you progress just makes it better.

Sword & Poker 2 is like the Pokemon sequels: it hasn't changed much, but it's still an incredibly addictive and satisfying game.

In the end, it's not a game but a task manager; you don't play the Farmville app so much as you make it part of your workflow.

Beautiful, fun and innovative.

Monster Dash is not the pinnacle of the endless platformer genre, but its action-based take does enough right to be an entertaining game, and a worthy purchase for those looking for more endless platformers for their iOS device.

In true retro, quarter-gobbling fashion, this is one hard game. So hard, in fact, it's pretty much off-putting for anyone except the most hard-core gamer.

Unfortunately, due to the lack of perceived importance, getting through all the levels seems like more of a chore than an experience. I'm not saying the levels aren't fun, but they all sort of feel the same.

Grimm is about as pretty as a platformer can get, but it's lacking a bit in the excitement department.

Minotaur Rescue is a solid little inertial shooter with plenty of TLC behind it. It can be quite chaotic, but the simple controls and offbeat elements in play make it fun and memorable, and the universal app support with expanded single-device multiplayer options is definitely a plus for iPad owners.

If you like Match-3 games and are looking for a fun twist, or you just love shapes so much that you dream of octagons, GeoSpin is the game for you. It doesn't hold me captive for quite as long as some of the other matching puzzle games, but its frantic, skill dependent nature will definitely appeal to some.

If you need a quick puzzle fix that is great for the lulls in your day, this fits the bill.

You'll find an amazing experience that will make you thirsty for more. A detailed plot, riveting dialogue, and superior puzzles make 1112 Episode 2 constant entertainment from beginning to end.

It's nothing extraordinarily new, and if you're sick to death of match-3's or already have one, this game isn't for you. If, however, you're a fan of the genre and need one for your iPhone or iPad, Babo Crash is a good choice.

There are some things that I would like to see added on in the future, such as multiplayer and more bonuses, but the game is quite good as-is.

A great, yet flawed, addition to the farming style games available on the market. If you find that games such as Farmville, Animal Crossing, and Harvest Moon are your cup of tea, then Astro Ranch is a definite purchase.
