    Fight Night Champion by EA Sports
    All things considered, Fight Night Champion is well worth your time and money, provided that you're willing to adjust to the learning curve and you're looking for a fighting game that rewards persistence and technique over lightning-fast blitzkrieg victories and ridiculous special moves.

    Can Knockdown 2
    Can Knockdown 2 does everything a casual game should do: universal, GameCenter achievements, great graphics, and a simple gameplay mechanic. But, it does get old quickly, and there are only 12 achievements for you to work with.

    Bruce Lee: Dragon Warrior
    Simply one of the best fighters I've played on the iPhone. It's got an easy-to-follow storyline, adequate controls, beautiful graphics, and an overall enjoyable gameplay experience.

    The Blocks Cometh By Halfbot
    The Blocks Cometh is an easy recommendation, both to new players as well as to those who previously bought the knock-off. The game is attractive, challenging and rewarding, and nails that just-one-more-time addictiveness factor that makes games easy to pick up and hard to put down.

    iStunt 2 - Snowboard
    There's really not much to the game, and the features are pretty much the same as any other Miniclip game: $0.99, GameCenter, and Retina graphics. And for those that downloaded iStunt, iStunt 2 is a welcome addition to the family.

    iBlast Moki
    iBlast Moki is the most complete game I have ever encountered. Period. There's no other game that rivals in quality and quantity, a mixture that's absolutely destined to be awesome.

    Speed Forge Extreme
    Speed Forge Extreme did a great job with executing with the controls, and the tilt was flawless along with the inclusion of touch controls; another yet flawless implementation.

    Castle Frenzy
    There's really not many variations in the game. With only one map, there's definitely room for improvement.

    Hit N'Run
    Traffic dodge games usually feel pretty generic as the majority do nothing to innovate or enhance the genre in any way. Fortunately, there are a few gems out there like Hit N'Run that take a chance and do something a little different.

    Rock Band Reloaded
    After a few hours, I can only describe the experience as boring and repetitive.

    Robot Rampage
    Robot Rampage looks good, sounds good, but plays mediocre.

    Robokill - Rescue Titan Prime
    Designed specifically for the iPad, it plays better than any other dual-stick shooter I've tried on the device, it's gorgeous and I've been having a blast with it.

    Rise of the Triad: Dark War
    If you never played the game before, are looking for a classic FPS, and already have DOOM and Wolf 3D then you will have a lot of fun with this as well.

    Riddim Ribbon feat. The Black Eyed Peas
    Controls still suck.

    Ridge Racer Accelerated
    Anyone looking for a true Ridge Racer experience shouldn't find one here, and with such a lack of true content and more of a DLC extravaganza, Namco has managed to once again destroy a once beautiful franchise.

    Rayman 2: The Great Escape
    This game is great… except for the controls.

    Raging Thunder 2
    While Raging Thunder 2 has its flaws, it's still one of the best arcade racers on the iPhone.

    Ragdoll Blaster 2
    Serves as a classic example of how well a physics game can work on the platform, it's addictiveness will see you through to the end, it's charm is almost unparalleled, and perhaps above all it is unique, a rare achievement in these modern times.

    Quell
    There is nothing to dislike about Quell; the game is the very embodiment of relaxation.

    Queen's Crown
    It blindsided me from left field, and I'm still in a daze. And now I am going to make a very bold statement, one that will surely incite controversy: It is my considered opinion that Queen's Crown is the best Korean RPG in the App Store.

    Puzzle Quest 2
    As match-3 games go, Puzzle Quest 2 is king of the hill.

    Pool Pro Online 3
    I had a few moments of fun with it, and it definitely shows the progress Namco has taken on the iPhone. And above all else, I'm more than glad to see only one DLC item in there; one that is reasonably priced and makes sense.

    Crystal War
    All wishing aside, however, Crystal War is a beautiful, highly entertaining castle-vs-castle game, and one that I heartily recommend.

    American McGee's Crooked House
    The game does a wonderful job of rewarding progress without sacrificing accessibility, challenges the player without resorting to cheap tactics or the whimsy of chance, and contains enough content to keep even the most avid puzzlers busy for some time to come.

    Pocket Creatures
    The game does offer a ton of content, even if much of it on first glance appears repetitive. Tactile Entertainment just might have created your new constant companion.

    Plushed
    Somewhat bipolar: the boss encounters are well realized and refreshing, while the level-design only average at best.

    Tiny Wings
    Tiny Wings is a good game. But it's extremely raw when it comes to options such as being able to listen to your own music, and it also left out GameCenter on its initial launch. The gameplay is addictive, though, and the artwork isn't too shabby.

    Shadow Era TCG
    I would like to see some improvements in speed and multiplayer match-ups, but other than that, Shadow Era is a game that you won't want to miss out on. Plus, it's free. You can't really get any cheaper than that.

    Plants vs. Zombies
    Plants Vs. Zombies goes beyond the game, becoming something more like a phenomenon.

    Pro Evolution Soccer 2010 (US)
    PES 2010 is, at best, a good soccer game. There are a lot of feature and content problems that I know could have been nonexistent had Konami been more creative.
