Just thought i'd make a thread to see what other people are playing.

Most of the time it's Peggle or Flight Control but I recently purchased one called Draw Race... It's like flight control but racing, very cool.

No idea... But they're cheap anyway. $1.19 for a game you'll get more gameplay out of then most PC/PS3/Xbox games :yes:

My iphone gaming is limited to peggle and flight control too :)

Flick Fishing is decent, but I don't play it much anymore - maybe once i've 100%'d i'll go back.

Not really, but if you have a Jailbroken iPhone you can get nonappstore apps from Cydia (Cydia comes with the jailbreak program)

If you wanna get highly illegal stuff there are ways to do so - but it takes a lot of mucking around and not really worth it for the price you pay for most apps

Here's my current list of games

Let's Golf - nice game, only problem is that it plays a stoopid movie everytime you start the game
HoldEm Poker - very good poker game, but expensive for what you get
Zombieville - I play this one the most - quite addictive and also very hard on the higher difficulties
FlightControl - also very addictive - haven't tried multiplayer, but apparently that is very good as well
Fieldrunners - haven't play it much, but its pretty good
Real Racing - just got it today, looks very good
Monkey Island - love the old classic games, not too keen on the interface tho

Nice thread Dan, after my Podcast one this was another I was thinking of starting. :yes:

My Current Games List:
WildWest Pinball (Free)- Simple Pinball but addictive.
Paper Toss (Free) - Throw the paper ball into the bin by swiping
Pac-Man Lite (Free) - Yep Pacman original from NAMCO, bit pricey to purchase but want to along with others (Galaga, Time Crisis & Pole Position)
Hangman (Free) - Classic guess the word game
MineField (Free) - a different take on the Windows default game minesweeper but is clumsy and too small for touch screen at times.
Action Bowling (Free Version) - Ten Pin Bowling, swipe action
iGammon - Back Gammon for iPhone/iPod
X-Plane Trainer - Free Demo of X-Plane on iPhone, uses motion to control the aircraft.
Flight Control - Fun but limited
Volkswagon Polo Challange 3D - Saw a guy on the train playing this but only just installed it.

Also tried:
Cubee ($1.19) - Rubics Cube.
iBall 3D (Free) - Ballbearing Maze uses motion.
Spin the Ball (Free) - Keep the basketball spinning on a finger
Target Practice (Free) - Pistol Shooting
Touch Hockey (Free) - Air Hockey but way to sensitive.

"Rope 'n' Fly" is pretty damn cool for a bit of a mess around. - Free
"Blimp Lite" great fun, lots of levels etc for a free game, good gfx - Free

Just on this, the Dev can change the price at will, even for a few hours only. Apps like AppSniper really help there. As you track watched apps, purchasing when $1.19 or free.

Well I got my phone yesterday. Then later that day a mate called in. I was still excited about my new toy so he logged in to the app store, authorized the download to my itunes so I got most of what he had bought :)

iBomber
Paper Toss
Wolfenstein RPG
Doom
Lets Golf
Hero of Sparta
And he had only just bought the TomTom app so I got that for free too :D
