If all that TV isn't enough for you then DirecTV has launched Game Lounge, a bunch of simple but fun games to play on your TV using your DirecTV remote control. While this isn't exactly an Xbox 360 or Wii it's got a few classic games to pass the time with your family and friends.
Not all DirecTV boxes and remote controls can get Game Lounge just yet but to find out if you can just tune into channel 110 and press the blue button. You can preview any game for free with a monthly Game Pass costing $5.99 a month or get a single game pass for $1.95.
DirecTV are also talking about interactive "Plus" games which are designed to play with PVRs only and plays from your PVR's hard drive. These will apparently be coming sometime soon.
This isn't really the sort of thing I would be interested in, but anyone who likes killing time playing solitaire, suduko, puzzles and that sort of thing will probably love it. Still I'd rather play them for free on the internet.
