7 Best Games for iPad with Retina Display

Dubbed as a "great gaming device", the iPad 3 will give mobile gaming devices like PSP Vita a run for their money. Thanks to its retina display, gaming will never be the same again. To make things even more interesting, developers have come up with their own HD versions of games made exclusively for Apple's third generation tablet. Here are some of those eye catching games that look just amazing on your iPad's new retina screen:

1. Sky Gamblers: Air SupremacyYou might feel a bit queasy while playing Air Supremacy. This air combat simulation game is simply awesome on your new device. Everything, from realistic graphics to vertigo inducing dog fights, is amazing.

The game can truly give tough competition to some of the top notch air combat games on PC. The best part of Sky Gamblers is the easy learning curve. A series of tutorials will help you learn the basics and jump right into the air combat action. So get ready for some barrel rolls and head swirling loops with Namco Bandai's amazing flight simulator.

2. Ice RageIce Rage is a cute little ice hockey game that's heavier on the visuals side and boasts adorable, yet challenging opponents. It features a nifty multiplayer mode that allows players to play a game of ice hockey against their friends. Players can also choose to play against popular hockey players (AI) in a one on one intense match.

What's amazing about the game is the set of special hockey players that can rock any match. There's a hard hitting character, a faster than light hockey player and crazy goalies that won't be that easy to tackle. The game will look great on your iPad retina screen, as visually it is one of the best animated sports games available for the latest Apple tablet PC.

3. Contre Jour The title sounds like a nice French piece of art. In fact, it is a stunning piece of art. Confused? Contre Jour looks like a nicely painted canvas. Combining light with darkness, the game blends fine art with an interactive challenge that seems too easy to play but hard to complete.

In this game, you will have to guide a strange looking character through the beautiful black and white landscape and use cleverly placed environmental puzzles such as pulleys, air geysers to your advantage. Contre Jour can be a great choice for your iPad with retina screen.

5. Great Little War Game HDThis epic turn based strategy game is a must have for all strategy fans. And the reason why this game should be on your app list is because of its massive environment that can be zoomed in to experience bright cartoonish graphics. The HD version for iPad's retina display is much more vibrant and detailed than the standard version.

The best part of the game is its open endedness, which gives you plenty of opportunities to devise your own strategy. Good 3D graphics, complete with excellent turn based strategy makes this game quite impressive.

6. Modern Combat 3: Fallen NationModern Combat fans will love to add this visceral post apocalyptical FPS game to their iPad 3 game check list. This first person gem is enhanced exclusively for the device's Retina screen. The Hi res visuals are something that you have never seen in any mobile device.

Fallen Nation allows you to go for an enemy killing spree in a gripping solo campaign. And if you like to have some group hunting fun, then join up with more online players (up to 12). If you are an ardent FPS fan, then you should download Modern Combat 3 the game is worth every dime spent!

7. Real Racing 2In my opinion, flight simulation and racing sim games will be some be a good choice to play on your device. Why? Because of the outstanding graphics and of course the advantage of iPad's display and accelerometer controls that ensures ease in steering/flying a vehicle.

If you are a big racing fan, then you should try Real Racing. The second game of the series features plenty of realistically looking cars and over 10 amazing locales to race on. With your accelerometer controls, you will vroom past your opponents and can feel the adrenaline pumping through your veins. The enhanced version is perfect for your big iPad 3 screen.
