Anyone have any idea what the best paid Apps and/or Games are? dont mind drop $5 if its a good game.

Ok, I can recommend a few from the App store.
Tap Tap Revenge 2 is currently free and awesome. Think Guitar Hero on the iPhone!

Sway is a great game. Got a swing a little frog around levels. Solid physics engine and graphics like Little Big Planet. I'm addicted to this game, but it infuriates me!

Zen Bound is a good little puzzle game with excellent graphics. You get a block of wood, mostly shaped like an animal. The idea is to rotate that shape to wrap it up with a piece of string. The string leaves paint. So the idea is to paint as much of the object as you can with limited amounts of string. It's a slow, relaxing game to play.

Tower Bloxx is simple but addictive. Create towers by dropping each story, one at a time, from a swinging crane. Land them slightly off and the tower becomes wobbly which is harder to land. Miss 3 times and you're out. Has a great single player career mode and also has quick play and 2 player split screen.

Cooking Mama is the same as on the DS. Do simple tasks to make recipes. I got it for my son. He loves it. It bores me.

Ancient frog is another interesting puzzle game. Move a frog from one end of a lily pad to the other end in order to eat a fly. The frog has certain spots to grab hold of in order to get there. Think of it like a rock climbing wall, I guess. The less moves to get to the fly, the better the score.

FerrariGT is pretty crap.

Crash Nitro Kart is average. Not too bad but the framerate sucks.

Super Monkey Ball is the same as all the console versions, but made harder with the tilt sensor. Frustrating prick of a game, that one!

Applications:
Camera Genious. Allows you to take steady shots, voice activated photos, a timer, and a full screen shutter button. Very handy replacement to the standard one.

Google App. Pretty handy launcher for Google applications and online services. Also has voice search, where you say what you want to search for in the microphone. Pretty neat!

That's about it from the App Store. I find pretty much everything else useless crap in there. I can only take so many fart noises or retarded sound effects!

Haha I got that tap tap game already. Is the Camera Genious and Google free Apps? ( I did DL the Atomic Fart machine. )

Damn I wish I could DL this crap at work, I'm in a basement and get no reception.

Thanks to both Jimmys.

The Google App is free, as well as Google earth, in full 3D. I'd recommend getting them both, just to show off! lol. They have cool features which make the iPhone look good!
Also, little hint if you haven't already worked it out. Open up Maps on the iPhone, drop a pin on a street and hit the arrow on the left of the pin's title. Takes you to Street View. Awesome stuff!

Jump on Youtube and have a look at the gameplay of some of those games. It'll give you an idea of which ones you want when you're back in good Wifi reception.

Thanks Bish for all the info. I'll be asking more soon enough. I played with the maps all day yesterday, almost crashed watching my dot move Got Google earth as well. Works really well for a phone. The guy at the AT&T store showed me the street view, I forgot how and took me 30 mins last night to remember.

This thing is awesome!

Super Monkey Ball, Sway and iDracula have been reviewed so far. I'll try to get one or 2 a day done over the next few days. Give feedback!
