Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Pong at Free against Disc Drivin''s $2.99. Pong also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 10) and ads (none vs shown). Disc Drivin''s advantage is rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and chart position (#113 vs unranked). On review sentiment and device support there is nothing between them.

Pong is free to download; Disc Drivin' costs $2.99 up front. Disc Drivin' sells 10 one-off in-app purchases. Pong asks for nothing beyond the download.
Disc Drivin' holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Disc Drivin' has 58 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 94% of Disc Drivin''s written reviews are positive against 100% of Pong's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
