Did you know that downloadable iPod games can be found in many sites other than iTunes? Popular titles like Monopoly, Mahjong, Bejeweled, Scrabble and Mini Golf are downloaded and played everyday on millions of iPods. If you own a video iPod and seriously would like to get entertained by the fantastic and captivating games, what you will learn here is just a click away from the downloadable games for iPod.

There are basically 3 places where you can find downloadable iPod games. They are iTunes, free sites and paid game sites.

iTunes - The Top Site For iPod Game Downloads

This is a no-brainer. Everyone knows that you can find games to download and play on your iPod at iTunes. However, the price tag of each game is $4.99. Naturally, there is no incompatibility issue with your iPod but for that price, it is not cheap.

Free to Download Sites

There are places where you can find free downloadable iPod games. Yes, there are hobbyist sites or software developers who want to showcase their works for fun. We found iPodArcade as a site that is popular among folks who like to play quizzes. They offer titles like NFL and NBA Trivia, Lord of The Rings Trivia and so on. Next, we also found some free games for iPod at several P2P/torrent sites.

The rule of thumb is this. Always be careful when downloading content from insecured sites. You run the risk of exposing your computer to virus and worm attacks, not to mention the deluge of adware and spyware. We found that quite a number of games are corrupted and cannot be played. Well, free does have a price.

Paid Download Sites

You will come across third party providers for downloadable iPod games like iPodGames.com, Coolgorilla.com, XO Play and Malinche have several games that are worth looking at. However, we do not like the acutely small selection of games at most of these sites.

Fortunately, we noticed that there are membership sites that have emerged to offer members with an opportunity to download unlimited games. For a flat fee of less than $49.99 in most cases, you get to access their database of thousands of new and interesting downloadable iPod games.
