    For me the fact that Sonic 4 doesn't have Retina support is a deal breaker. For a big name company like Sega to produce a brand new big name game like Sonic 4 and not make it to support that highest graphical standard that it can achieve is very odd to me. The iPhone 4 has been out for almost 4 months now so I don't know why top developers still are making games that don't support the Retina display.

    Can I get some suggestions of games along the lines of skee-ball, NBA hotshot, monster dash, fruit ninja, etc.? I'm talking about pickup-and-play games that are perfect for a few minutes at a time. It's hard for me to get into games that require a lot of time. Thanks

    I recently found Tilt to Live to be a great pickupandplay game.

    Anyone have any games that are as "addictive" as Galaxy on Fire 2 and Game Dev Story?:D

    That, Fruit Ninja, and Zombie Highway are the only pick up and play games I really play anymore. Check 'em all out if you haven't already.

    Yup, you need Zombie Highway. It's still my favorite pick up and play game, followed by Tilt to Live.

    Jabeh is pretty outdated, but at the time it was my favorite PUAP game. Now, it's probably zentomino.

    I just saw that and thought "It's only a matter of time before da shiz goes insane".

    I'll get it once it goes on sale... A.) I only have $2 and B.) I just can't bring myself to buy it at that price. I'd rather get Ash, tbh.

    omgomgomg get $5 and buybuybuy

    Actually I don't know if the $5 price is justifiable for the not-rabid-fan-of-fantastic-contraption, but it sure seems worth it to me. New stuff like magnets and moving terrain, the layout is better and performance is waaay better.

    Oddly enough, Get To Tha Choppa is one of my favorite pick up and plays. It's an endless runner with obstacles (and zombies!) that's quirky and fun. I think I love it because of the awesome soundtrack.

    Wow! My question got buried by loads of Sonic comments!

    Anyone tried Yoo Sports?
    It looks good, but nothing I cant get elsewhere for free.

    Hellouuuu,

    I just need a great recommendation of an app that keeps you coming back to it, because it has a great story...

    No pick-up-n'plays games and no point & click pls
