Okay so I thought I pretty much knew about all the new cool little things that had happened with the iPod lately. However, I have to say I was unaware that there was a new gaming world developing around the iPod. I knew there were games on my iPod, though I have to say I am normally walking when I am listening to it so I don't really play them, however I was not aware that there are a bunch of games you can now download from the internet.
As there is free stuff floating around on the internet for everything else, it is no surprise that there are also free iPod games that you can download. I have been looking at them and they range from quiz games to murder mysteries in which you are supposed to catch the killer. I don't know why I thought that iPods were mostly for music on the go, apparently now they are little TV's, stereos, and gaming units, all in one.
I am not quite sure how big of a deal the iPod gaming thing is and am therefore not sure how in demand the free iPod games are. However, the few websites that I read talk about the world of iPod gaming as if it is up and coming and gearing up to be as big as the world of Playstation and Xbox. Some sites to try are www.ipodgames.com, as well as www.ipodarcade.com. Of course itunes.com now has games, but they are not free. There are a lot of sites saying they have games, but they don't follow through once you're actually on the site.
It seems as if our society is becoming more and more technology obsessed, with companies battling each other to be the one to come out with the next big expensive piece of technology, that everyone will run out and buy, and that all the kids will beg for their parents for Christmas. For some reason I am not really sure this is a good thing. |
