    You might want to look at Order & Chaos Online. I don't know if the subscription thing is going to bug you but I think it is a really great World of Warcraft clone and the gear you get changes how your character looks.

    I liked Samurai II a lot. Slicing up people is fun!

    Real Racing 2 should be the first purchase you get without hesitation.

    I have 99c left, I'm looking to buy:

    Dead Space
    CrimsonHeart
    or Bike Baron

    Which one should I get?

    If not for the origin update with DS, I would have bought it with no hesitation. Also, game center with no achievements?

    CrimsonHeart, I'm not sure but that 360 degree control sure sounds inviting. I already have many many KRPGs...

    Bike Baron, heard it was too hard. How is it?

    In DS the origin isn't actually required to play and it seems to be out of the way. If you'd want the game for the single player and not leader boards/achievements, I'd say get it.

    In Bike Baron they added more easy levels so you can at least get 30-50 levels done without being an extremist. Also, I've spent more than 50 hours on it.

    Dead Space. It was my game of the year :D
    No but seriously, you can't go wrong with Dead Space. Achievements can suck it. The campaign simply cannot be missed.

    I've also got 1$ left on my account. I'm looking at 9mm right now, but i'm sure there are better choices. How are Wind-Up Knight and Ice Rage? Any other recommendations for good games currently priced at 99 cents?

    Wow.. Thanks a lot!

    EDIT: I've added Bike Baron to the list of games I'm interested in. Bike Baron, Wind Uo Knight, or another game that costs 99 cents?

    I create awesome paper airplanes that I will sell
    Here
    I'd say it's worth looking into Sleepy Jack as a third alternative. It's also a launch special too, if I'm right. Pretty fun game there, though so is Bike Baron (haven't gotten Wind Up Knight yet, so I can't compare those to it)
    The more expensive one is universal, the other is iphone only.

    Is Wind Up Knight worth getting? Curious about it as well...

    That's tough.....get both? :p

    I'd get Bike Baron, like I've said, i've got over 50 hours played. - TA review


    Absolutely, I didn't think it would be at first, even after seeing videos. The progression in there is absolutely marvelous. They start you out with just jumping, then swinging a sword, then rolling, then blocking, and I just got double jump. It's amazing and only $.99, so what's to lose?

    I recently got an iPhone 4s, I used to have an iPod Touch so I have some games already, most of the classics. I checked my wishlist and had a couple of games I need advice on. What do you think of this? Which ones should I get? I also added "new classics" I missed last year.

    Dark Void Zero
    The Incident
    Impossible Game
    Superman
    Cut the Rope
    Tiny Wings
    Edge Extended (I have the original)
    Sonic CD
    Wind Up Knight.

    I would also like someone to recommed a game to show the 4s full potential, I alreadiy have GTA 3 and Infinity Blade. Any impressive game graphic wise?

    PS: Unrelated, can someone show me the way to an iPhone wallpapers site? I'm a fan of retro graphics

    Out of that list I'd get the following:

    Impossible Game
    Cut the Rope (if you like puzzle games)
    Tiny Wings
    Edge Extended (if you liked the first)
    Sonic CD
    Wind Up Knight (best game in the list)

    For very good graphics, I suggest Shadowgun - TA review

    tquinta seeing as you like retro graphics id probably recommend the incident and edge extended superman isnt good in my opinion if you had to pick 3 they would be:

    -The Incident
    -Edge Extended
    -Wind up knight/Sonic CD/Cut the rope

    Also should i get The Settlers/Bag it or any adultswim game

    Also if you have any unknown games you like for 99 cents then please recommend them
