http://www.education.vic.gov.au/languagesonline/ (you download and make your own)
Hot potatoes of course is also free and great for IWBs and you can make crosswords which could be good for word with definitions

It is pretty simple, but my students love using it for review.

http://www.bubbabrain.com will have a fresh new look for the 2010 school year. I created the website so teachers could make games for their students.

I like using Quizlet.com You can put your own definitions and there are several different games the kids can play like space race and scatter.

I think if you join Spelling City, it allows you to enter definitions, doesn't it? It's pretty affordable, and lets students test out of lists, so you can get them through a years-worth of spelling words.

Braineos is one of my favorites.  You can create your own online Flash Cards, would work great with Vocabulary.  Then you can take Multiple Choice Tests with them, play games with them, or simply practice them, all online.

Students cannot lose them, and you can easily share them on your school website.  Pretty awesome and simple site!

Here is my example of a a Braineos Review I made about Computer Hardware Vocabulary.  This is a practice multiple choice test.  If you click on the Arrow next to the title, you can see several other options of what you can do with my vocabulary!
