Not a bad list. I am surprised The Legend of Zelda made the #1 spot. Wonder what kind of a list it is, landmark games or best games...

Wow! This is a great list of games. Here in http://www.appisaurus.com/1354-cloud-se ... bile-apps/ I read that
the most profitable and high production value video games on the industry right now are console video games. OnLive is a program that streams video games to consoles and TVs without a computer. Now, the service hopes to crack the code and provide video games to cellular devices. You could have the ability to get your preferred video games on all your products soon. :)
