For news / article type stuff:

Instapaper
Flipboard
Reeder

Games:

Lego Harry Potter
Real Racing 2

National Geographic do some nice ones like:

7 Billion
50 Best Photos

Flixter is a good one for movies

Or Discovr Movies - you enter a film you like, and it comes up with others that are connected in some way.

Vevo HD is good for music videos.
