1. HDR Photos

5 Free iPhone Games

Just some pretty cool iPhone games... (in no particular order)

1. Eliminate Pro

This is by far my favourite iPhone game. It's a first person shooter, but you connect via wifi or 3G and play with opponents from around the world. It is very similar to Halo, with futuristic weapons and armour.

2. Froggy Jump

This is similar to doodle jump but with lots more exciting features like "gems" - you collect gems and then redeem them for cool power ups in the shop. Also you can unlock themes and other things which enable special powers and game modes.

 3. Tesla Wars

Tesla Wars is a tower defence game with lots of towers and upgrades. It has plenty of game modes and its definately worth downloading

4. Real Racing GTI

This game is just a "demo" and only uses the Volkswagen GTI and a few tracks, however it is worth downloading just to experience the amazing graphics and controls.

5. NinJump

A very simple little game. Basically you are running up walls dodging other ninjas and things, and the higher you get the better your score. Very simple, yet very addictive!

Thanks for reading,
