You want to get this game on your ipod touch and it says its not compatible with this ipod but your friend has the exact same iPod touch and she has it what do you do in order to get the game?

If the game was purchased by your friend and they gave it to you, you will need to authorize your computer to sync the game to your device, otherwise it won't work. To authorize your computer to sync the game to your device, open iTunes, and at the top of the iTunes window, click "Store" then click on "Authorize Computer...". Enter your friend's Apple ID and password they used to purchase the game and then try syncing the game to your device again. If your friend has the second generation iPod touch hardware (Ex: Has a speaker, smooth chrome backing), it could be a hardware limitation if you own a first generation iPod touch (Ex: Black aluminum ring around the iPod touch screen).
