Fieldrunners for iPad is what you would get if you took Team Fortress 2's wacky take on warfare and blended it with the addictive "destroy 'em all by any means necessary" quality inherent to the tower-defense genre. As enemies race toward your HQ, strategically place weapons on the map, and prevent enemy troops from breaching your defense.
Frogger

Geometry Wars: Touch
$0.99
This fast-paced action game feels like a jacked-up hybrid of Robotron and Tempest that uses the multitouch screen as a giant dual controller; your left finger controls the ship, while your right finger aims the rapid-fire laser cannon. Super-fast animation and 90's techno-style music add to the trippy effect.

N.O.V.A.
$6.99
Gameloft's N.O.V.A. bears more than a passing resemblance to Bungie's hit Xbox 360 first-person shooter with its space marine vs. alien invader storyline, and combat armor that enters Halo territory.
