Apple’s third generation of tablet PC is said to be announced on March 7, 2012 at 10am PT. Details are nothing but a rumor right now but conventional wisdom maintains it have a 2048×1536 double density Retina display, a faster Apple A5X chipset — though whether or not it’s quad-core is up for grabs. A camera upgrade would also be nice. Below are top 10 free iPad 3 (the New iPad) games for you to take as a piece of good advice.
Additional Information:
Pavtube Studio unveiled a column called iPad Video Specials to help beginners enjoy movies and TV shows on iPad, iPad 2 and the new iPad 3. This column explains how to use iPad to watch movies online, how to transfer local movies to iPad for watching, how to encode MKV/AVI/WMV to iPad compatible video, how to turn DVD and Blu-ray into iPad movies, as well as how to access iPad Video Mirroring and Streaming.
1. Air Hockey Gold (universal)
Updated: 16 September 2011
Version: 1.14
Size: 17.6 MB
Language: English
Air hockey games work much better on the iPad than the iPhone, simply due to the iPad's larger screen. Air Hockey Gold isn't the only free game of this type, but it was the one that felt best during testing, and the two-player mode works nicely.
2. Aurora Feint 3
Updated: 17 April 2010
Version: 1.0.1
Size: 58.4 MB
Language: English
Aurora Feint 3 is essentially Puzzle Quest (Bejeweled welded to a basic RPG). Slide gems and match three to gain energy or smack your foe during battles. The horizontal-only sliding combined with accelerometer-based gravity-shifting in the well means you have to think fast in this game, which is well-suited to the iPad.
3. Bub - Wider
Updated: 29 October 2011
Version: 1.2
Size: 9.1 MB
Language: English
This curious creation is a tranquil arcade game, where you tilt your iPad to guide a bubble around forests. The aim of Bub is to snare strangely named seeds and avoid foes. There's little new here over the iPhone release, and the fuzzy graphics desperately need an upgrade, but Bub works well on iPad due to the precision the larger device offers.
4. Cliffed: Norm's World XL (universal)
Updated: 01 July 2010
Version: 2.2.0
Size: 22.6 MB
Language: English
This race-to-the-bottom vertical platform game lacks depth but Cliffed is fun for a quick high-score blast. Use the chunky controls to make your guy dash left or right to avoid rocks and leap down holes. If the screen catches up with him, it's game over. Cliffed XL (£1.19) adds characters and power-ups.
5. Compression HD
Updated: 21 February 2012
Version: 1.6
Size: 20.1 MB
Language: English
Compression HD is roughly what you'd end up with if you used a hammer to smash Puyo Puyo into the garbage compactor scene from Star Wars. Pieces fall, and you move and rotate them to fashion lines of three. All the while, the walls are closing in.
6. Dizzypad HD
Updated: 21 December 2010
Version: 1.0.3
Size: 15.5 MB
Language: English
Dizzypad is a one-thumb game which has you tapping the screen to have your frog leap between rotating lily pads. If he falls in the drink, he dies (pollution, eh?), but extra lives can be gained by munching bugs or bravely skipping lily pads. Extra modes are available via in-app purchase.
7. Harbor Master HD
Updated: 01 June 2011
Version: 2.0.1
Size: 11.6 MB
Language: English
This game might look like Flight Control in the drink, but the gameplay mechanics are subtly different. As with Firemint's effort, Harbor Master is a line-drawing game, this time with you drawing paths so boats can dock. However, once they've unloaded, they must leave the screen or sometimes visit another dock, ensuring things rapidly become complex and frantic.
8. Labyrinth 2 HD Lite
Updated: 21 October 2011
Version: 1.4.1
Size: 16.4 MB
Language: English
Labyrinth 2 HD Lite's definitely worth downloading if you don't have the full game. It's the digital equivalent of tilt-based marble games, but with varied, crazy designs. You get 15 mazes here, and there's always a high-score to beat.
9. Pocket Legends
Updated: Dec 11, 2011
Version: 1.7.5.1
Size: 54.5 MB
Language: English
Most iPhone OS MMOs are dreary text-based affairs, so it's nice to see Spacetime Studios creating something a bit more ambitious with Pocket Legends, providing us with an iPad-specific 3D world populated by the usual motley collection of fantasy characters. As always with MMOs, the game demands you invest plenty of time to get anything out of it.
10. Tilt to Live HD
Updated: Aug 11, 2011
Version: 1.5.4
Size: 19.4 MB
Language: English
The basic aim of Tilt to Live is simple: avoid the red dots, either by cunning dodging and weaving or by triggering explosive devices in the arena. The game stands apart from similar releases due to its polish and sense of humour. You get the basic mode for free, and others can be unlocked by in-app purchase.
