So far I have:
N.O.V.A.
Asphalt 5
Wheelers adventure
Angry birds

Are there any others that make my new phone's display shine?

I believe so since it's under the section in the AppStore for iOS4 which is mostly retina games. I might be wrong though, regardless angry birds isn't my cup of tea

no retina support yet. it's under iOS4 compatible which could just mean "fast app switching"

I stand corrected. That's quite a list, LBG, are there any you would highly recommend out of those?

Red Conquest and Osmos.
Both are simply stunning!

Red Conquest looks pretty interesting, how would you rate it as an RTS? I have a few TBS games (battle for wesnoth, uniwar, and highborn all of which I enjoy, BfW the most though) but I don't have any RTS games yet.

Osmos looks a little simple and more like an art-game, which, while cool, is not really worth $3 to me

Real Racing's are amazing. I tried it out at the apple store :)

Is it better than Asphalt 5? I already own Asphalt 5 and Need for Speed: Shift

Where would we be without LBG? You are always on this and you've got a good list going.

I hope the new Gangstar game supports retina

I think it probably will. Let's Golf 2 and HoS 2 both supported it, so I don't see why the new Gangstar won't.

I heard only the environment textures were updated for retina so the 3d models still look bad, is that true?

Which game are you talking about?
Let's Golf 2 and Hos 2 both look amazing. Let's Golf 2 was updated with Retina Support which didn't include the menus, but the gameplay itself looks fine.

I was referring to HoS 2, I heard that in a review. I just bought jet car stunts and I'm loving it

^ Jetcar Stunts is thebomb.com.

My other retina faves are Osmos and Zen Bound 2, all of the above look amaazing.

Gravity Hook HD is also nice if you like Canabalt, and I think Words with Friends will be updated for retina any day now.

I've never played canabalt, Zen Bound 2 is awesome, very meditative and the reflections are insane.
