Lots of iPad games go on sale this weekend, likely more to come

by Mike Schramm Mar 10th 2011 at 5:00PM

iOS developers have realized that there will probably be a whole lot of iPad 2 apps sold this weekend (since there will be so many new iPad 2s wandering around), so they've dropped prices on quite a few iPhone apps. AppAdvice has a good list up -- EA's apps are in there, including Mirror's Edge and the recently released Dead Space, and Firemint's Flight Control HD is down to a buck this weekend. Minigore HD is also on sale for a dollar, definitely worth a purchase if you haven't grabbed it yet. Bulkypix is also putting most of its iPad games on sale, though that sale doesn't start until tomorrow morning.

I doubt this is the last we'll see of these sales -- there's going to be a pretty big rush for the top apps lists in iTunes this weekend, as developers try to take advantage of the incoming flood of iPad 2 owners. The good news is that you, as an iPad 1 owner or someone lucky enough to get a shiny new iPad 2, will get to grab some great apps for cheap.

I am playing We Rule at the moment. It's free and fun. My game ID senarstyle.
You didn't ask but since you got iPad recently so I am just letting you know, GoodReader is a must have app.

The ipad game. I don't know whether it fit for you or not. I do have a VPN provider and successfully connected through it but for unknown reasons was still denied access to the iTunes store.

Don't forget--if you know you're going to get an iPad but can't afford it until next month, or if your chosen model gets sold out, or if you just haven't decided which color you want yet, you can still take advantage of these deals proactively by buying them on iTunes on your Mac while they're on sale! I'll be keeping an eye out for can't miss deals even though I don't plan to get one on launch day.

Hopefully they do the same for the Int'l iPad 2 launch. Well, I guess there's nothing stopping me from buying a few apps a couple weeks early while they're on sale...

Actually I already bought many apps for the ipad2 though I didnt get it yet...
Do yourself a favor and buy them before you get the iPad because now they'll be cheaper :)
