UPDATE: Since this article was written, Capcom has added some excellent titles to their sale in celebration of Comic-Con. We’ve added those games to the list, and added Gameloft’s Fishing Kings which dropped to 99¢ a few days ago. Gameloft and Capcom have recently dropped some of their games down to 99¢, and while some of these titles have been on sale before, there’s a couple of great deals to be had out of the bunch.

My personal pick on the Gameloft side is Modern Combat: Sandstorm, which is a very good Call of Duty-like FPS with online multiplayer. On the Capcom side I recommend Dark Void Zero, which is an 8-bit “demake” of the console game Dark Void. It really nails the look and feel of the classic NES games, and even has you blowing into the mic of your iPhone to simulate blowing into a NES cartridge, as was customary when you couldn’t get a game to work.
