Free Internet Arcade Games

If you are anything like me when it comes to gaming, there's nothing better than free internet arcade games. Fast paced action, classic arcade games, and best of all, they are free! Both of the services that I list here have multiple ways you can play games online. They even offer you the chance to win cash prizes if you are good enough...

So let's jump right into the games.

Real Arcade

Real Arcade is an online gaming service that offers both free internet arcade games online, and downloadable games. Here's how their service works. You first download a small program that is Real Arcades console. This installs on your computer and pretty much stays out of the way until you need it. It is used as a central location for all the games you have downloaded or bought. Then, you browse their games till you find one you like. Once you find it, you download the game, and it will install on your computer. You can then play the game for free. The free versions have some limitations, usually a set number of levels, or difficulty level. Once you get a chance to play the game, you can choose to either buy the game if you really like it, or simply download another one and try it out.

You can download as many free internet arcade games as you want, and keep trying them until you find one you like, and they have 1000's of games.

The other option they have is what is called GamePass. This is a monthly fee, $9.99, which give you big discounts on all games, and a free game each month. The price of $9.99 is actually a great price when you compare to what new games run nowdays.

I have a GamePass, and wanted to share some of my favorite games here.

Aloha Solitaire is a combination of solitaire and Mah Jong. Simply match up the cards and remove them from play. There are quite a few twists to this though...
Word Slinger is a great word game. If you like a word challenge that is similar to Scrabble, then this one is for you.
Mah Jong Artifacts is another great one. I personally love Mah Jong, and this one puts a few twists on the game.
Enjoy the classic Monopoly? Get Monopoly Tycoon FREE with GamePass. However, this is much more than your basic Monopoly game...
Luxor 3 is one of the more popular games on their site. I have been playing Luxor since they first one came out, and love them all. Get Luxor 3 FREE with a 30-day trial to GamePass
Bejeweled 2 is one of the most popular puzzle games ever. This one is a blast, and if you haven't played it yet, you have to get.
Cannon Blast is a fun action-puzzle game that pits you against the pirate leader Sharksword. Get Canon Blast FREE with GamePass

PopCap Games

PopCap Games is another service that provides free internet arcade games. PopCap has 2 ways to play free internet games. First, you can play online on their site. These games are always free, no charges whatsoever. The second way you can play, is to download a game on a trial basis. If you like the game, you can then purchase it, and get the full game unlocked.

PopCap also has multiple ways of playing. If you really like a game, chances are you can download it to your PDA or smartphone. They even have many games made for Mac's.

PopCap doesn't have any sort of monthly plans. They simply offer free internet arcade games, or downloadable games for trial and purchase. I have bought a few games from PopCap in the past, and play online quite a bit. They have a great service, and I have never had any issues with the games that I bought from them. Here are some I have played, and some I would like to...

Peggle is one of PopCaps biggest games, and also one of their most addicting. It is free to try, with the option to buy. Peggle - The Hot New Game - Get the Free Download
Amazing Adventures Lost Tomb is another fun puzzle game. This one is a free download to try, and if you like it, you'll have to buy it, but man is it fun.
Alchemy is one of the first games on PopCap that I tried. It's a blast.
Zuma is another PopCap favorite. Look out though, this one can be quite addictive.
