Just curious...if Games can be downloaded from iTunes...what format are they? Are they apps? Flash content, what?

I don't know the answer to your question. But I want to know how to buy them with no iTunes store in NZ.

Get a green card

They are only available to those countries that have an iTunes store according to the presentation, regardless of the fact they could be legitimately sold n NZ.

There is another way, we can all use Phil's UK credit card.

Re: iPod games 1 Year, 10 Months ago  
I'm more than willing to purchase Pac Man and download it for trial purposes for the sake of NZMac.com users...if someone would like to supply me with an 80Gb Video iPod on which to keep it stored on. Anyone?

I just bought me the 60Gb Video iPod (bought it Monday, oh how I should have waited 2 days).

Don't the games work on that one as well?

You bought an iPod 3 days before what was widely tipped to include major iPod announcements?!!!!!

Re: iPod games 1 Year, 10 Months ago  
I am impatient and the fact that I also forgot what day it was.

That being said though the 5G iPods have a download that allows the games to be played. I just confirmed this when I used the new iTunes (how swanky is that) and it downloaded the updated software.

Pity it didn't install the Search feature though. That would be sweet.
