Social Games Give You Nothing For Nothing – Joystick Division
I’ve never played any of the Facebook games, yet I’m probably not in their target group anyway. What I consider a game is completely in complex 3D, requires more horse-power and disk space than the computer in TRON, and lasts for weeks or even months.
The gaming spectrum spans anything from clicking on cows to life-like games that are universes of their own. It’s for anyone to pick their poison.
I actually see a big market for a bit more involving games on Facebook, Google+ etc, e.g. turn-based games that are not sensitive to network lags etc.
