CNet have compiled a list of what they believe are the best free Android games currently available for the platform.
Quote:
Bonsai Blast
It's a hugely entertaining Puzzle Bobble-style reaction-tester. The aim is to fire brightly colored balls from a brightly colored cannon. When you get three brightly colored balls in a row, they disappear and you get some points. The tension comes as the balls wind their merry way towards a little yin-yang symbol. For some reason, the yin yang wants to eat your brightly colored balls--hey, it makes as much sense a blue hedgehog running around picking up rings. If it succeeds in swallowing your spherical friends, you lose.
Abduction
We aren't entirely sure what the aim is, or why you're playing as a bouncing cow, but it seems that at some point some bovine abduction has occurred, and it's your job to bounce happily up a series of platforms until you reach a spaceship at the end. On the way, you'll encounter presents, which when opened by your cattle-based avatar will give you little bonuses, like the ability to jump higher.
Battleship
If you can play this game without hearing the "you sank my battleship" line from The Simpsons, we'll be very impressed indeed. There isn't much anyone can say that will persuade us that Battleship isn't one of the greatest games ever devised. And now, you can play it on your Android phone!
Robot Defense
You don't get this tower defense game for free, but the demo is smashing anyway. Basically, the deal is that robots want to crush your human flesh and use your blood as some sort of newfangled robo-lubricant for their robotic joints. Your job is to protect your arse and the arses of those flesh-and-bone sacks closest to you.
Cestos
You could be forgiven for looking at this article about Android games and come to the conclusion that we're obsessed with playing with balls. Cestos is the second ball-based game in this roundup, but with good reason. The first thing that strikes us is how incredibly awesome it is to have a mobile phone game that works online. That's right, Cestos is a multiplayer Android game--so you'll need a mobile Web connection to fire it up, but it finds opponents automatically.

I've not really spent much time going through the Android games that are available on the market, but i'm definitely gonna check a few of these out.
What are your favourite free Android games?

i Agree about doom, easily the best thing i've downloaded from the android market, keeps me entertained for the few hours my battery lasts.....not getting into THAT, cestos, bonsai blast, robo defense and abduction are are all on my phone, the fact that they are still there is evidence enogh that they are worth taking a look at.
