When I say "iPod Games" I in no way mean the kind that are actual video games (although some friends of mine from Idaho invented one for the iPod Touch and iPhone called Lexitron which can be purchased in the iTunes store). No no, I mean music listening games of course. Here is my recent favorite (with 4 levels of difficulty):
Put your iPod on a full-out shuffle and try to name as many artists in a row as you can without any hints (as in, no peeking people). My record is 29 in a row.
Then do an iPod shuffle and name the artist AND the song title. My record there is only 2. Oddly enough...
Along the same lines, try this: shuffle--name the artist, song, AND album. My record = 5.
Finally, the most difficult level is naming the artist, song, album, AND year. This won't be easy to do if you don't have the year listed on the display. My record is 4.
To make the game have more of a music fulfillment purpose, once I get stuck on a song, I put that song on a special play list. This play list of "Get to Know Songs" is the subject of my Friday afternoons.
So there you have it. Some iPod games. I promised Jenna that if she can name 20 artists in a row on my iPod I would buy her a house! She still hasn't quite gotten there...

This is a great idea. I challenge you! I'll let you know my scores.
You are the master of iPod games! Congrats!
My brother's and I have played "Name That Band" for many many years. In fact, even though we are all married now, it is still played when visiting each other's families (even if we haven't seen each other in a year or more)
