    Doodle Jump

    Doodle Jump just seems to have it all. Great sound, the most precise use of the tilt controls yet (very rarely do I feel like I have "cheap deaths") and great game play. It's just fun to get the jet pack or blast some UFOs.

    As for other responses in this thread, I wish I could take back the part about me mentioning the cost. I can see that it should be discussed independently of the game play. And people who do complain shouldn't be considered cheap. I've spent so much money on games that it could be considered an unhealthy addiction. Because I've played so many, I feel I have an understanding of each game's value. Canabalt is near the bottom of the list.

    On a parting note, I am really enjoying this forum, unlike places like IGN and Gamespot, it isn't crawling with immature kids and die hard fanboys. Thanks for the responses!

    You bring up a good point. For people who just want to blow off a minute or two, this is a pretty good option.

    Canabalt is on the "games I will never delete" page of my iPhone. I was a late purchaser of this game, mostly because I shared the opinion that it was overpriced. Then I had some money on a gift card to burn, and picked it up.

    I've played this more than any other game on my 6+ pages of games. Totally worth it.
