    Not a big fan of LHP. I would put in GTA:CTW if it had a retina update. NOVA 2 or MC2 deserves to be in there.

    MotoTrialz!

    What about MotoTrialz everyone? I love this game, it's so like Trials HD on my 360. I'd say please pick this one up!

    Yeah, what has been going in with Rockstar anyway? I think a retina display update would be perfect for this game.

    47.Perfect Cell
    48.Civilization Revolution
    49.Zen Bound 2
    50.Gangstar 2

    Just in case anyone was ever wondering, and yeah, these are my must-haves for whoever was asking earlier. Didn't include any repeats of one series. Tried to include as few ports as possible. I'd recommend any of these for the original price no doubt. Given that I didn't make too many mistakes, these are indeed the best 30 games I've played in the past two and a half years of the AppStore, which is nearly since the beginning of it's relatively short history. It's come a long way. However, quite a few of these even date back to early 2009, and yet, they still hold their appeal to this day.

    Edit: Made it top 50, what the hell, couldn't resist heheh, and I really didn't find my original top 25 too accurate. The error range should be a lot lower now xP. Lol, 25 minutes of editing.

    I might disagree with a couple of entries, but that's a pretty good top 50.

    Personally, I'd squeeze in (or extend the list to include):
    - Edge
    - Evac HD
    - Infinity field
    - Tiny wings
    - Dungeon Raid
    - We Doodle (free)

    Well, my games were actually just for the iPod since that's what the guy was asking hahah. I actually considered Edge, but thought Perfect Cell deserved the spot instead. They're by the same developer. Tiny Wings..it just wasn't fun for me. Don't really feel like it comes close to Angry Birds or Fruit Ninja as AppStore classics. It's more on level with Doodle Jump, which didn't make my list either. Dungeon Raid is one of the few popular/highly ranked games around here that I disagree with. I just don't see it, and I don't think I ever will. Can't be bothered downloading anything by Ngmoco after Eliminate Pro, so yeah, no We Doodle. Just my opinions on that list, heheh.

    Osmos for iPad
    Zen Bound 2
    Ozone HD

    Not only are all three optimized for the iPad and relaxing, they're all excellent games to begin with.

    Not bad at all. Is Phoenix Wright one of those you disagree about xP? Some of the last ones on that list actually felt a little forced since I got a little lazy after nearly 30 minutes, so yeah, there's a +/- 5 games error bound at least on that list. I probably could have put better choices for some of them. 40 of them are definitely in my top 50 no matter how I look at it though, so it's a decent list. I guess I included too many Gameloft titles for your taste xP.
    Heheh, no problem. Ask me on any of them if you have any specific questions. Maybe, I'll go through it again tonight and make sure it's completely accurate to reflect my top 50 and repost it. We'll see.

    Edit: I actually just went through my iTunes with pen and paper and wrote down all the candidates for top 50. Took out some from my old list and made sure everything was added, and my list is now at 60 lol...going out now so I'll post it later after I choose my top 50 when I'm home.

    Nope, I've grown to love PW, except for the awful graphics. The one that I think is totally bad is GTA: CW. Seriously, I think it's the most overrated game on this platform. :>

    And you sure did! I've got quite a few GL titles I didn't even bother installing after picking up at .99. >.<
