Most Impressive Paid and free games for EVO?

So far all I've found that works well is:
3D / high graphics
Paid:
Speedx 3D - (~$0.70) - Accelerometer controlled tunnel/obstacle avoidance game - best looking/running game I've found IMO
ExZeus Arcade - (~$4.00) - arcade style game, fly/shoot/bosses
Radiant Lite / Radiant (Free/~$2.25) - Space invaders
Homerun Battle 3D Free / Homerun Battle 3D (Free/$4.99)- baseball homerun hitting game in 3D; not my favorite, but I can see the appeal to this game and the graphics are decent. I ended up buying it...
Other games
Fully Free:
Cestos (though, I really miss the keyboard and resistive screen I had on TP2) - Multiplayer "marbles" game
Free/Paid Versions:
Farm Frenzy Lite / Farm Frenzy (Free / ~$4.50) - reminds me of insaniquarium type games
Abduction / Abduction! World Attack (Free / ~$2)
Robo Defense Free / Robo Defense (Free / $2.99) - Tower defense game. Limited types of towers and monsters, and mediocre graphics, but can be addictive. Suggest free version first.
Note: prices listed with a ~ are for titles not listed with a USD($) price, and therefore I list the approximate USD price.
Names in italics are titles I personally recommend and own.
I've tried other games that are supposed to have the best graphics but they've all run like crud (slow to 5fps or less, example:Asphalt 5). I'm particularly interested in 3D or graphics intensive games myself.
I can update the list as people report other games that run well.

That looks pretty fun and doesn't lag. Added to the list. Gfx do look pretty fuzzy though (like QVGA/iphone fuzzy). Also interestingly I couldnt find the free one in the market, only could find it through appbrain. Is this common for android apps? (I'm new to android, used to be WM with TP2)

My wife lives farm frenzy. I haven't had a chance to play with it yet.
Any good rpg's on the market?

iCommando works well and is pretty fun. I wish there was a full on database of every awesome game for android that you could sort by rating. Yeah I know there are a lot of market alternatives but none of them have ALL the games. But usenet has turned out to be a great way to find new games.

It also seems in what amount I've looked so far (since yesterday), that there are many apps that are incompatible with the snapdragon phones and only will run well on the other android phones.

Robo defense rocks, though speedx is amazing!

Thanks for the suggestion. I downloaded the trial and it looks great. I'll be picking up the paid version.

Yes, asphalt runs horribly. My understanding is that it's an iphone 3GS port and is not optimized to run with snapdragon. The droid and some other android phones share a GPU with the iphone so it runs fine on those.
edit:Exzeus arcade is pretty good though (also, it's on the market as well)
I also tried zenonia someone suggested and it does run fine... but it's very "fuzzy", looks like an old iphone port (Iphone or Iphone 3G) from their extremely low resolution qvga screens.
I did buy Farm Frenzy and it's pretty fun although the capacitive screen to select such tiny areas is frustrating sometimes ^.^

Homerun battle 3d. Single player or online multiplayer. Be careful, it gets crazy addictive.

Radiant, great art design. SNESoid, gamboid for all your retro needs, crusade of destiny for a great rpg experience.

i'LL DEFINITELY HAVE TO CHECK OUT SOME OF THESE!!

im waiting patiently for angry birds

I don't play many games on my phone and when I do it's when I am on the can; usually. I do read a lot on it though. Glad the Nook app syncs with my Nook Tablet and Nook Color though.

Contract Killer and Contract Killer: Zombies are NOT free.
Yes, the games are free to download (30+MB) free to play only the introduction (first round) then you have to spend REAL money to buy some virtually weapons to shoot (Zombies for example). This is the most ridiculous thing ever on earth.

My favorite android games are-
1.Angry birds
2.Peggle
3.Words with friends
4.Grand Prix Story
5.Bejeweled 2
Well your list is pretty good.As these are my favorites thus these become must have android games for me.

HumbleBundle just released thwse games for Android, and they are all ****ING BRILLIANT
Canabalt HD
Cogs
Zen Bound 2
Swords and Soldiers
Avadon: The Black fortress
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA

Cut the rope is, in my humble opinion, the best game. I like it!

1 Super Dynamite Fishing
2 Doodle series (Farm, God, Devil)
3 World of Goo
4 Quell Reflect
5 Where's my water
6 Angry birds
Tomorrow we can expect a realese of new Angry Birds Space which looks like it will bring new interesting gameplay.

Glu really dropped the ball on these games, Contract Killer used to be an awesome game. That is until they started updating the game, adding weapons that are ridiculously expensive (seriously, who is going to spend $50+ on a single purchase in a game, to buy a gun?) I have purchased about $10 worth of credits, b/c the game was really fun and I was playing it every day, since they started with the updates I have hardly played at all.
Some other games that I really enjoy are
Where's My Water (if you buy it, get it from Play Store not Amazon, they have been behind at least one update for months)
World of Goo
Trial X (X, X2, X2 Winter) got them all as Amazon free apps of the day
Modern Combat 3 (very cool game, just wish it worked on my Kindle Fire)
Asphalt 6: Adrenaline
Cut The Rope
Plants vs. Zombies
Worms

fpse, N64 emulator?

Well Galaxy on fire 2 seems to be missing and its also free (well kinda... but im happy to find that app back since i had the 1 and 2 on my "old" 3gs and paid both still i have no credit card and the only advantage i've seen for Apple was the itunes cards xD... now i have at last a tegra device and happy with it ( and the best under ICS ))
