Why can't the program recognize pygame?

I have downloaded and installed pygame and I know where it is (/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages). I am trying to get the program consisting of the line 'import pygame' to recognize its existence but I keep getting 'ImportError: No module named pygame'. How would I get it to work?

The installation packages for pygame are incompatible with python 3.x However, the vast majority of the pygame modules have been ported to python 3.x, so really it's simply a matter of moving the Pygame modules to your python 3.x dist-packages.

The scrap, _movie, surfarray for Numeric, and threads modules are the ones that have NOT been ported yet.
