There is no way to block all online games except if you uninstalled Adobe Flash (which is the primary plugin used to load and play games online). However you will also not be able to view videos on YouTube and other popular video sharing sites, as many of them use Flash as well. However disabling flash, will block all of those things and plug many security holes on your computer.
