wow. Starting to realize why I don't have a lot of gameloft games. Kudos to them on the promotion, but so far these games are pretty terrible.

This really is stupid. If this was an opportunity for people to see what Gameloft has to offer, I think my opinion would be "boy, does this company make crap games".

Yeah - they actually have some good games but the ones they're giving in the promo so far kinda suck

I didn't find the racing game bad per se, I did already outline why I didn't find it too useful for a phone game though.
This Chuck Norris game is pretty bad though. It has potential though I guess...

I don't see them giving out any of their top games in this promo b/c they probably just want people to become aware of them through this (already accomplished though I think).
Hopefully some good ones show up though. As it stands right now I'll continue checking out this thread hoping you all post the updates.

That's the thing, they actually make some really decent games. They're just giving the terrible ones away for free. Stupid really if they want to generate more customers. Hopefully they actually give away some of their really good efforts.

The Oregon Trail, Blokus, and Uno are mainstays on my iphone.

Many, many sites say that game (Dungeon Hunter) is THE best game out there for the iPad right now...

Castle of Magic, a Mario/Sonic clone, is free right now. It's the best reviewed game of the three thus far....

wow for some reason I woke up a couple hours early today and couldn't fall back asleep, so I lucked out and was able to pick up this game.
I'll give it a test later to see if it is any good or not.

Real Tennis is the game today.

http://twitter.com/gameloft

Edit: Just for the record I deleted this game after a real short time. I don't know if it wasn't made too well or if tennis just doesn't work on the iphone. i didn't really like the controls for this game.

It's a tower defense game where you try to stop bankers from getting into the white house. These games have been pretty rough so far ... I might just skip this one.

I'm going to give it a shot because it's free, but I can tell you now with 99% certainty that I will be deleting it within 5 minutes just by looking at the screenshots and reading the title.

This is another one that I won't even bother downloading. Yesterdays tennis game is probably the best so far. It reminds me a lot of their Real Soccer game - looks like it should be fantastic but it's very hard to get used to the controls.

I got bored and downloaded it. To it's credit I got to level 3 before becoming overly bored with it. This promotion is driving a lot of interest their way, but it sure isn't doing a whole lot for their brand strength.

I downloaded off 3G.

Yes, it's a warcraft clone. Only played chapter one, but you click on the hero, attack a monster, grab a group of weaker fighters, attack a tower.
