Thanks for recommendations Trevor, Davidh, and BaronofHell, I downloaded Creeps lite & Ragdoll blaster lite for trial and Minigore looks fun.

I can't recommend Sword & Poker 1 and 2 enough. Great games and highly addicting.

Cut the Rope is also a newer great game.
edit: My favorite game so far thought has been Surviving High School. I think I have bought like 12$ worth of DLC for that one. Tiger Woods Golf is also pretty fun but a battery killer.

Agree with Sword & Poker, but I'll add a bunch that haven't been mentioned that I got a ton of playtime out of:
Peggle
Montezuma 1 & 2 - match type game
Luxor - marble shooter
Stoneloops! of Jurassica - marble shooter
Critter Crunch
Boggle
Yahtzee Adventure
iFarkle
Bookworm
DoodleJump
Super 7
BrickBreaker Deluxe 2 - marble/paddle arkenoid type game
Pac-Man: Championship - some have complaints about controls, but I had no problem adjusting to them
And lastly, I just finished Mirror's Edge the other day and LOVED it. It's probably overpriced though, so wait for a sale. If you enjoyed the $60 game you should have no problems enjoying this one. Speaking of though, every one of these have been either free or discounted at some point so don't buy a bunch right away, just keep your eyes peeled for a sale.
As you can tell, I prefer quick, pick-up-and-play type games.

For the Genesis fans that missed it the last time, Shining Force is .99 again.

Picked up PvZ and for those of you into sim games -- Game Dev Story is highly addicting.

OK, so we don't have jet packs or the ability to vote through our DVRs (you did remember to vote, didn't you?) but at least you can say this of 2010: A game that once required CD-ROMs to work is now available on your iPhone. Or more specifically, spooky FMV gem The 7th Guest will be available this December on the iOS platform. We've put a trailer for you after the jump if you're completely in the dark (i.e. younger than 25).
Oh, oh, but we haven't told you the best part! Guess who's bringing the game to market? None other than a reformed Trilobyte Games, the original house behind not only The 7th Guest but other oddballs like The 11th Hour and (at least in part) the supremely odd Tender Loving Care (starring John Hurt). Can you believe it? ... C'mon, where all my FMV nerds at?
... Anybody?

Great news! My wife and I played through both 7th Guest and 11th Hour back many years ago; we actually tried to find the old CD's a year or so ago to replay them but had no luck.

Wow... excellent news about 7th Guest.
I noticed that BrainDead 13 is also out on ios (not that B13 is a great game, just a novelty) so maybe we'll see more mid-90s computer games come out. Crusader... Phantasmagoria...

100 Rogues dropped from 5$ to a buck today. It has great reviews and appears to be a really polished roguelike game so I picked it up.

It's actually renowned for being a complete bug fest. Having said that, it's now 8 or 9 versions in so I figured I'd give it a shot. But, if you browse around you can see posts from a lot of pissed off people, stuff like losing their saves etc.
