(i just love the ode to joy playing - it's goofy but still so incredibly rewarding!) wow, thanks for the list. besides flight control i havent played any one of those.

For simple interfaces on the iPhone I recommend you check out: Flight Control Card Ninja Eliss Blowfish Jungle Crash PeeMonkey Time Crisis Annie's Wild Shot Last Cannon Pop Radio Flare and most notably Star Trigon @gutek
