    You can check out Deadlock: Online. It is an online, top-down, dual-stick shooter.

    Way to kill two birds with one stone on that one. :) Also, Modern Combat 3 has the arguably the best online multiplayer. Other online games I play a lot are Super Stickman Golf (currently free), Hero Academy (asyncronous online), and Real Racing 2.

    Well, I've never really gotten into Deadlock, but from I can see, the IAPs are unlock points. So I'm assuming that you can earn unlock points by plays and the IAPs are just for the lazy.

    IAPs are for weapons. And just by leveling up you will never be able to get all weapons you want. So imo the IAPs suck in that game.

    Doing nothing of importance.
    Somewhere
    Add Ghost Trick and Chrono Trigger and you have a good list.

    I think this will be the first week I don't buy a single iOS game in around two years. Might grab Rinth Island and Fibble eventually, but for now, meh..looking at the new featured list by Apple makes me want to go to sleep.

    Downloaded Cordy Sky for free, and that's it.

    You guys do realize that all you have to do is review the game with your unlock code? and voila...you will get a lot of unlock points.

    Ive never spent a dime on Deadlock and have all the weapons I want.

    No, I've never realized this since I've only played like 1-2 rounds. Don't really plan on playing more, tbqh.

    Oh yes, I definitely had fun during the few times that I played. Now that I know that you get unlock points for reviewing, I may pick it back up :p

    All you need to do is just post a review in the app store with your code and periodically update the review. Do that for a couple of weeks and you'll have plenty if unlock points in no time.

    Rinth Island is pretty fun, but I would steer clear of it if you plan on playing on your iPhone cause the zoom level is just too far out. Hopefully this will get fixed in the update.

    Is rComplex worth getting now that it has been updated?

    I didn't really read the answers so I don't know if this has been answered already, but for online experience get Modern Combat 3... Easily tye best. Or if you want more arcadey get Modern Combat 2. For topdown shooters, best are Deadlock and Bullet Time. That Extraction Project or whatever was its name was also topdown. Went free a while ago.
