Has anyone played Real Racing HD, Asphalt 5 HD and Need for Speed Shift for iPad? I'm having a bit of trouble deciding which one to get since I only got $40 in iTunes cards. Which one has motorcycles too and plays well?

I just bought Need For Speed Shift. So I'll let you know, I have played Real Racing HD on the ipad's at the Apple Store and the sim is great but I personally like a game with a story line and the only thing in that game is just win.

Well if I had to sum it up in two words it would be 😀 BUY IT. That was by far the I have best racing game I have ever played and I only did the first two races. But before you buy it take into consideration that a lot of people have been saying that it crashes on them a lot when it first opens I tried opening and closing it about ten times and it all worked perfectly for me. So once again BUY IT!!!

I got Need for Speed Shift and it's been a lot of fun.

One question for you other players - I have the iPhone version of Need for Speed Undercover and when you buy new cars there, it shows you the max stats that the cars can be upgraded to. However, in the iPad Need for Speed Shift I couldn't figure out how to get that information to display. Anyone know how?

I haven't played the iPad version yet but the iPhone version of Real Racing is a ton of fun. Best use of tilt controls I've seen.
