I think I have 3 total...just picked a few up at Starbucks last week.

Ugh, addicted to Pixel People. And it's one of those games that in a week's time I'll look back on and wonder why i spent so much time waiting for and clicking on icons over and over and over.

Great Big War Game is terrific. It's basically Advance Wars for your phone with better graphics and legitimately funny writing.

Infinity Blade just went free for the first time. I've never played it, but it's apparently one of the highest rated and best selling iOS games ever.

Snagged it yesterday. It was 99 cents around Christmas but I waited and then it went back up to 6 bucks. I figured it would drop again.

Its ok, very repetitive and there's no exploration it's all just fairly linear paths and one on one timing based battles. Certainly a beautiful game to look at but it's a better as a technology demo than a true feat of gameplay. Wonder how the sequel is.

I have it but have never played it since it's freakin huge and would require me to delete like half my iPad apps if I ever wanted to install it.

Plants vs Zombies, both the iPhone and HD iPad versions, are free today.

Everyone on the planet has played these by now I'm sure, but it's hard to imagine recommending a 'purchase' more.

Just started playing Simpsons Tapped Out. If anyone else is still playing you can add me if you want. Toddarinono1.
I wish it was more difficult to spend donuts. I've wasted a bunch by accidentally pressing the speed up button.

That is really annoying. Sometimes if I'm on the bus or something and playing one-handed, it can be really hard to cancel that speed-up in time.

I'm still playing and was glad to see the Valentine's update, as I didn't realize how tired I was of looking at snow. , but I'm just about done with that one too. If you keep playing and get to higher levels, it'll be harder to level up because they don't run updates with new levels that often. And I guess there's some kind of bug going around that's freezing some people out of there games, but I haven't run into it yet. You can add me: seattlecub.

Re: iPhone/iPod Touch App Talk

Now the real question is if they have cloud save running properly so that they don't delete our game when we update.

I'm enjoying Real Racing 3 quite a lot on my iPad. Free game where the in-app purchases don't seem to be pushed too much, and you can play fine without them.

Everyone probably has it by now, as Rovio puts at least one of the six different Angry Birds free every month, but the original SD and HD versions are free today.

Re: iPhone/iPod Touch App Talk

I actually never bought any of the Angry Birds games, so I was glad to see that on Touch Arcade. I've also gotten Seasons and Rio free over the past few months, and I'm a little bit tempted to buy the Star Wars edition just to reward the developers/producers.

I agree that developers deserve "buys" sometime, but since you know it will be free eventually, just buy one that has never gone free or an IAP of one you play.

I don't think Star Wars has gone free, but I agree with the sentiment.

Neither Space nor Star Wars have ever gone free.
