Downloadable iPod games are available these days at dozens of sites. In case you think that only iTunes offer them, then you will be pleasantly surprised to note that there are way more than than just one site today offering interesting game titles like Mahjong, Monopoly, Solitare and Tetris. As an iPod user, here are some tips that will get you started in getting downloadable games for iPod without breaking your bank.

Basically, all these places for downloadable iPod games can be categorized into 3 main groups. They are namely iTunes, free and paid download services.

iTunes – The Mainstream Site For iPod Games

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 Use Service

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.

However, we do not really advocate anyone to download from insecured sites. It is never worth the effort downloading free games only to expose your PC to malware and viruses. A lot of their games are not working properly and boring too!

Paid Game Services

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.
