My favourite apps:

Amazon Kindle - Kindle for Android
BBC News - gives headlines and stories for different topics which you can specify from the list
ESPN Goals - shows you English Premier League goals from the days games
Netflix - handy if you have a Netflix account
Ulysees Speedometer - gives a GPS speedo, and HUD display function of speed when in the car
ConvertPad - gives you conversion data on weights, distance, time etc
Swiftkey X - keyboard which I think is much better thean the Android OS keyboard
Endomondo Pro - Fitness tracker App. TRacks by GPS, gives google map route of your workout, lap/split times, allows intervals, beat your time etc

Games:
Many that have been mentioned, plus
Angy Birds Space - only hold my interest for about 10 minutes at a time if honest
Drop 7 - number based, sort of Tetris style) game
Turbofly 3D - Wipeout style racer
Whack your boss - find ways to kill your annoying boss using office equipment
Robot Unicorn Attack - sidescrolling platform type thing

Fuel Log - for tracking how much your car actually costs you for real. App is pretty much perfect in every way.

Torque - when coupled with a bluetooth OBD reader can read and clear ECU fault codes, and also log a multitude of engine data fields (rpm, coolant/oil temperature, speed, throttle position, fuel flow). Useful for creating data overlays on track videos showing speedo, gear, GPS track position, g-force meter etc.

I downloaded JuiceDefender Free, and now I'm getting adverts pop up in my notifications..

Cardio trainer.

For anyone that runs/walks its brilliant, it will keep a log of each time you use so you compare your results. Just start it when you set off and end it when you finish. It will then show your route via google maps, the distance covered, steps taken, calories burned and also your pace per mile.

Anyone know of a radio app that works in poor coverage areas? I've got TuneIn Radio but it seems to struggle to load when signal is poor.

Need to be able to listen to 5Live tomorrow when I'm at the rugby...

Love fuel log! Find it useful for working out how much I need to charge a customer for travel costs nice and easily too! As well as keeping track of things!

Tune In Radio: http://tunein.com/mobile/
Turns your phone into a DAB radio, it also has a few other stations including Police band & Citizen band. If you have a car stereo that has bluetooth, it is a cheap way to add DAB to it.

Sky Go - loving this right now!

Also got a GREAT app on Google Chrome called 'Ad Block' which blocks ALL ads on ALL sites. It's amazing. Free to download but you're asked to donate as it's made by a private developer. I haven't yet but I will do.
