Everyone loves games, have it be board games, video games, or online games. Also depending on your personal preferences, there is probably a game out there that would be the perfect one for you! I always enjoy playing games online simply because its easy, fun, and it helps me to relax when I'm really stressed out! Some of my favorite sites are Pogo.com, TheArcadeForum.com, and

AddictingGames.com. Pogo and Addicting Games are actual game sites.

The Arcade Forum is a gaming forum which also has an arcade with thousands of games ready to be played by you and you can even play as a guest with out being blocked! On the other hand if you're looking for games to download onto your desktop you can do this as well with sites like iWin, BigFish or Real Arcade. As said above there are various types of games as well as genres you can play online. Here is a very small list of some of the games genres that might interest you:

Puzzle & Strategy

Casino & Cards

Memory & Matching

Sports

Arcade

Flying

Pinball

Platform

Role Playing

and more!

On most of the websites where you will be looking for games to download they will give you a trial version that you don't have to pay for beforehand. These trials last anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on the game, as well as the game site you chose. If you're interested in searching for a gaming site or a web site that has games available for download or you just want to visit certain sites to play games on, try searching on Google for "Download Games Online" or "Play Free Games Online." Or if you're searching for a game in particular you can also try search terms like "Qbeez Game Download" or "Play Qbeez Online." Be as specific or unspecific as you want but note that more than likely if you're specific you will probably find a lot more gaming sites that have the type of games you like! For example you can search for things on Google like "Play Online Puzzle Games" or "Play Free Puzzle Games Online", this will bring up pages of gaming websites that have puzzle games available to you!

Also, If you would like to you can check out TheArcadeForum and other forums like it such as ChatterBox Forum and YoBux you can check out your favorite search engine and search for keywords such as "Gaming Forums Online", "Arcade Forums Online" or "Online Gaming Forums With Arcades." Personally I absolutely love ChatterBox Forum for games, I think it is one of the best sites available to people today!
