File this strictly under flagship (Lumia 920/820, HTC 8X, etc.) play only, since you need 1GB of system disk and 1GB of RAM, but Asphalt 7: Heat, released today, is possibly the most impressive title yet released on Windows Phone. It's the archetypal arcade racer (so forget realism), with true online multiplayer action through Gameloft's servers, 60 cars to drive and 15 tracks to race on. Best of all, it's only a dollar (or 79p), so the hardware requirements are possibly the only thing stopping anyone from grabbing this. Watch this space for a full review, but there are some quotes and screens/video below.
