Each Stardoll member is supplied with a personal page and message one another via a built-in chat. The site has drawn interest from celebrities and fashion designers, some of whom are represented on the site either as one of the figures that can be dressed up (such as Avril Lavigne and Hilary Duff)[6] or through use of their respective fashions labels.[7] It has been named a Webware 100 winner by CNET.[8] Members of Stardoll are also able to purchase a Superstar account by making an online payment. Being a Superstar allows users to unlock exclusive items that non- Superstars cannot get.

Some critics of Stardoll and similar sites have expressed concerns with the commercial aspect of Stardoll.[9] The site has also experienced controversy around their use of celebrity likenesses without permission from the celebrities’ management.

Since everyone is keen and dying to know where they can do so pretty safely without worrying about downloading viruses, adware and spyware, and of course bursting their wallets, I decided to share some resources in this article about the most popular online game downloads sites today. Be sure to check out my resource link at the end of the article for the ultimate gaming site to download games online.

Here are 3 sites I have checked out. One thing to note is that most games can be downloaded but they are not in full version or there is a time limit tagged to it. In other words, to get the full version game downloads, you do have to subscribe. Then again, there are hundreds to thousands of games and you can simply move from playing one to another. And if you really love the game so much, consider joining them. It doesn’t cost you more than $20 for monthly subscriptions.

Shockwave.com is not new to gamers seeking the thrills of online games. According to the site, there are more than 60,000 players online at the point I visited. This is not an easy feat to achieve. In fact, more than 20 million people visit the site every month to download games online there or simply just play them online. This site offers 400 over games from sports, action, adventure, puzzles, shooting, jigsaws and word games. These top hits are also top sellers.

Shockwave has a premium service called Shockwave Unlimited which allows subscribers to download over 300 games online. There is also a 10 day free trial. This offers basically full version game downloads with absolutely no time limit.

Next, we have Miniclip.com. This game site allows you to download games online like sports, multiplayer, action, puzzles, flash games and so on. What is impressive about this site is that the games are updated quite frequently so you can never get bored here. Some game titles like 3 Foot Ninja, 3 Foot Ninja II, Alien Attack, Bush Aerobics, Disc Golf, Sub Commander, Hostile Skies and Family Feud are popular games here.

The third site where you can download games online is GameHouse.com. You get games like Little Shop of Treasures 2, Mortimer Beckett and the Secrets of Spooky Manor, SCRABBLE, MONOPOLY HERE & NOW EDITION, Interpol: The Trail of Dr. Chaos and many more. The paid option which costs $19.95 a month allows you to download all FunPass games, total of 300 over. There is no time limit and these are all full version game downloads. And yes, there is a free trial for 7 days.
