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.
