So I went out and bought the new iPad today, spur of the moment kind of thing. So I would like some recommendations for games to play that look good and play good on he iPad, keep in mind I have an iPhone already.

The iPad is a series of touch-screen tablet devices developed by Apple. The iPad can browse the web, playback local and streamed content, and run a large variety of third party apps, including games.
Just got an iPad!
Ticket to Ride, Carcasonne and other board games like that. They're great on the iPad.
Puzzlejuice. I really enjoy playing it. It's quite goofy.
Gta3 is actually really good for having touch controls. It runs at solid 60fps on the new iPad (I just like goofing around on it more than anything).
If you like tower defense check out Kingdom Rush. It's a ton of fun and actually challenging unlike most tower defense games.
And lastly, Battleheart. It's a strategy game of sorts. I think it's also on iPhone but it works way better on iPad.
There's a ton more games but those are the only ones I've gotten to play so far because I'm so busy with finals right now.
The War of Eustrath. It plays like Fire Emblem but its Mech based. Pretty sure its a remake of an old PC game.
If you got the new iPad (or maybe even the iPad 2) the TellTale adventure games are fantastic on a touch screen. They just don't run as well as I'd like on the original iPad.
The only game I played on an iPad is Mirror's Edge and it was soooooooooo much fun
If you haven't already sunk entire days of your life into Sid Meyer's Pirates! then you can do it on the iPad now. It's a decent enough port and it's awesome to have a version of that to take on the go. Scribblenauts on the iPad is better than the iPhone and DS versions for obvious reasons, and if you use a bluetooth keyboard with the iPad, entering insane strings of words into the game is a snap.
Try some of these games: PuzzleJuiceBeat Hazard UltraTicket to Ride and solipskier
The one downfall of my iPad is I hate most mobile games. Granted I really didn't buy it for games. But still I find my self looking for something. I need to just find something that plays to the strength of the iPad and not a port of something like say max Payne P.S. Typing on this thing is a real breeze!

Anybody reccomend me Max Payne or Dead Space
Both are worth it. Dead Space for the iPad is fantastic though.
Found a game i like and could not recommend it enough. The Pinball Arcade I normally dislike the idea of video pinball, but this one is just done so well! ahh memories.
