Will iPhone Games Work on the iPod Touch?

Difference Between iPhones And iPod Touch

When trying to determine whether the iPhone game will work on your iPod touch you need to know the difference between your iPhone and the iPod touch. The main difference between the iPhone and iPod touch is the ability to use the cellphone and access the 3G network. IPhones have continuous access to the carrier data network. The iPod touch only has the ability to connect to Wi-Fi hotspots.

There are many reasons why someone would purchase the iPod touch over the iPhone. The iPod touch has almost all the features of the iPhone with the exception of cellphone service and access to the 3G network. If you have a cellphone carrier who doesn't support the iPhone, you can purchase an iPod touch to get most of the benefits the iPhone has. Also, if you don't want to pay the mandatory data charge that comes with the iPhone, you can purchase an iPod touch to play your games on.

You can download many types of games from the iTunes App Store. Some games can access the Game Center so you can play against other people. Other games have a multiplayer option where you can connect to someone else's iPhone or iPod touch to play against them. You can find the requirements for each game on the information screen in the iTunes App Store.

The iTunes App Store has a large amount of games available for purchase. Although all the games will work on your iPod touch, games that require a continuous Internet connection will not work when you do not have a Wi-Fi hotspot to connect your iPod touch too.
