    Games are getting better and better on these devices. Some games could even be compared to PSP games. I was windering what are the most impressive ones you've seen so far (or coming soon):

    Here's mines for performance:

    Number 1: Supercross 2XL (by far)
    Number 2: Glider (could use more variety but still awesome)
    Number 3: Heroes Of Sparta (even through the frame rate is far from perfect)

    And for artistic work:

    Number 1: iDracula
    Number 2: 1112
    Number 3: Abigale


    Viao and have a good day guys !

    Supercross 2XL and Let's Golf are best 3D art that I have. There are some really nice upcoming ones too, like Underworlds, Vampire Origins, and Assassin's Creed (even if it will be a shit game).

    I know it's been a while, but according to http://forums.toucharcade.com/showthread.php?t=5908, the previous winner was Zen Bound.
    Runners up are Sway, Hero of Sparta, Fastlane.
    Of course that's only 3D games.

    For now, I'd say Supercross 2XL, Zen Bound, Sway.

    Glyder doesn't have much details, it looks crude and I personally prefer Nanosaurs.

    Assassin's Creed hopefully has smooth framerate. I'm getting sick of Gameloft's beautiful screenshots yet choppy framerate.

    I agree with 2XL Supercross and Fastlane. Although, I will play any game on my iPhone if the graphics are acceptable, i.e BIA - Not great, but does the job :)

    Strictly from an eye candy perspective which I assume is the main point of this thread given the title, here's mine (in no particular order):

    Sentinel
    iDracula
    Dungeon Defense
    Ancient Frog
    Koi Pond

    Not really any way a 3D game is gonna best these graphics, iPhone just doesn't have a big enough polygon-pusher.

    I think that Gameloft's Ferrari game has the best graphics I've seen on the iPhone. The level of detail is easily comparable to the original Xbox or the PS2.

    After my slightly cheeky response earlier, I have decided to be a tad more compliant to the question in hand;)
    So...my answer is....*cue drum roll*....
    Retro - Geodefense
    Puzzler - Ancient Frog
    TD - Dungeon Defense
    Platformer - Sway
    Racer - Supercross

    It's an interesting question, because I realized, despite the above games being very good, just how many other factors are involved in making a good game...thank you to OP:)

    Thank you for correcting the grammar in the title!

    On a more relevant note, I don't feel that the best graphics are necessarily 3D. I would say Rolando, IMHO.
