Examples of refreshed classics include Super Monkey Ball, Bejeweled 2, Tetris, X-Plane and Pac-Man.

Now, Maxis' award-winning city-building simulation, Sim City, and Namco's quirky I Love Katamari game are both available in pocket-sized form on the iPhone or iPod Touch.

Read on for USA Today's closer look at each one.
