Some fantastic coverage of the social gaming scene recently came our way from the mainstream media. MSNBCs Winda Benedetti talked with some of social gaming’s most prominent personalities — our own Mark Pincus included — about the strengths and challenges of this new frontier.
Key points include the importance of connecting friends through play, and the distinction between social games and the rest of the video game industry. Though social games may at times look very familiar, there are unseen complexities that make our business a fun and challenging experience for all those involved.
Thanks for believing in us, Winda. We promise we won’t let you down. ^_^
