Which iPhone games look best on the iPad?

I have both an iPhone and an iPad, and I've noticed that most of the games I bought for my phone look crummy on the iPad. Many of them even have different versions available for each device (like Flight Control and Flight Control HD!) Are there any iPhone games that will look great on my iPad, so I won't have to pay for them twice?

Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Answering Mahalo Answers question - Which iPhone games look best on the iPad?

Super Monkey Ball and Space Ace both look good on the iPad in 2X mode, - in general more 'cartooney' games look good.
But if you compare the iPad and iPhone versions of games like FieldRunners or Xplane, you will see that the iPad versions look way better. My opinion is that it is worth paying extra for the iPad version of a game.

I think that there is a whole bunch of games on IPhone that are fun: http://www.cell-ringers.com/the-apple-iphone/iphone-games/
But to me it depends on the quality of the graphics if I can enjoy the game or not. And fortunately, with my IPhone I don't have to complain about bad quality.

There are few that are not Universal apps. I've found two so far that haven't suffered much from pixelation when going to 2x: Dragon's Lair and Words With Friends. There may be more out there.

You might be more interested in the apps that are Universal apps (apps created for iPhone AND iPad that you only have to buy once). I've created a list of Universal apps and apps that are the same, but different applications for iPhone and iPad here:

Enjoy!

I haven't used any Apple products yet. But here are some games I looked at some websites which I think I could share here.

1. Asphalt 5
I have always loved the Asphalt series in mobile phones. I have heard that they rock on the iPhone/iPad too. The screenshots look awesome. The game offers solo play and head-to-head racing, either locally over Bluetooth and WiFi, or you can game with someone online. http://wireless.ign.com/articles/104/1043164p1.html

2. Mirrors Edge
Offers a fast thrilling experience.

3. Diner Dash : Grilling Green
I am addicted to this game since I downloaded it couple of years ago. This time management game needs you to reach a target money by serving your customers fast enough. The iPad version also looks nice.

4. Flight Control HD
You have mentioned about it. So I think you know a lot better than me.

You can find more games by browsing the below links.
