    But it doesn't show your ranking unless you are in the top 100 and I like to see how many people are on the leaderboard. If I am number 55 out of 100 players or 55 out of 10000 players.....................BIG difference.

    As a minimum, a leaderboard should always show your rank no matter what position you are in.

    There are just things missing that I find very important, but to each his own:)

    Umm, Hook Champ isn't endless...

    HOWEVER, Super QuickHook has one (soon to be two) endless modes as well as very replayable levels, so that would be my #1 choice.

    Canabalt and Monster Dash are both almost equal, but the machine gun jetpack (you heard me right) in Monster Dash combined with its low price tag make it a teensy bit better than Canabalt, in my opinion.

    Run and Chop Chop Runner are very good running games too.

    No offence, but last time I checked hook champ neither had an endless level nor was a running game.

    I must be a little different as I bought Canabalt only very recently - as in after I had played Monster Dash for a little while and I gotta say that I prefer Canabalt a very tiny bit for it's style and simplicity. it's almost relaxing! ... That said though I really like the cheevos on Monster Dash - They are very addictive and fun to get. I still not managed the one where you have to fall down the first hole and not touch the sides .... or the one where you have to die with -123 as the last digits .. arrgh!

    Has anyone played Cave Run yet? I was very pleased that it is a universal app and would of been an insta-buy if it was 59p / 99c but that little higher price point makes it so I just have to do a little more thinking about it. Kinda reminds me a little of the Rick Dangerous character from C64/Spectrum days!

    I find the Machine Gun Jetpack almost a liability! - I can't wait to get rid of it as it always seems to run out just as I need to jump over a gap and I fall right into it because of this stupid weapon! .... for me .. pacifier - all the way :) .. or the Uzi that's great too.

    No Robot Unicorn Attack? No Super Quick Hook?

    Just get them all, they're really cheap.

    Hahahaha! I gotta admit, that's kind of the case with me too. :D It's a fun weapon, but it's really wild, and it can throw off your jumps if you're not careful.
