    Regret!!!

    From Greatest to Worst:

    Real Racing (Gets boring quickly, too much money)
    Trenches (Pretty Boring)
    Guerrilla Bob (Not as fun as expected)
    Dungeon Hunter (Too hard to beat)
    Chuck Norris Game (Too easy and short)
    Talking Carl (Fun once or twice)
    Zenonia (Too much dialogue, boring, and too long)
    Star Wars (Terrible Graphics, waste of money)
    Zombieville (Not that fun, and too hard)
    Pocket God (Barely a game)
    Paper Toss: World Tour (Too easy)
    Most Addictive Game (Not addictive at all)

    And last but LEAST:
    Dead Strike (Simply put, it's terrible. I don't understand why people like it at all)

    Pocket God isn't a game! It's in the entertainment category.

    Pocket God definitely :( It's the dumbest app I've ever bought!

    What!? Even if you don't like the pointlessness of it you have to admire the graphics, personality and excellent user interface/controls.

    What the hell.... Why? :mad:

    Jet Car Stunts is on my never delete page. It's one of the best games I own.

    Obvious Regrets

    Robot Rampage: Only a dollar but basically half a game in and you're bored, there's nothing more to see. Good concept poor execution. Lack of content.

    Guerrilla Bob: As dual stick shooters go this one has some pretty unresponsive controls.

    Pac Man Championship: Money rape. You only get a part of the game for your cash. Then they want $4 more to continue.

    Also, the people who are complaining pocket god isn't a game. It wasn't supposed to be.
    Perhaps you're not good at it? I thought the controls were perfect, as does almost every other review of jet car stunts I've seen.

    Don't regret too many of my purchases because I almost always wait until they're on sale (exception: GTA).

    However, I really fell into the hype for Pocket God. I guess it's just not my kind of game and was bored to death playing it (probably why I don't like games like the Sims either). My son, however, loves it.

    I also agree with Guerrilla Bob for very unresponsive controls (which I still can't understand because Mini Gore's are spot on). But I picked it up when it was $.99 so I don't reget it as it's still a fun diversion.

    Same with Pac Man. Got it during the $.99 sale and it has enough content at that price and re-playability. I haven't bought the add-on pack and don't plan to unless they also run it on sale.
