Great topic, its really fun to play games on facebook and myspace but some of them are kinda silly like the vampires and zombies application, i think they should develop new game and intersting applications and not silly ones.

If you’re interested in this kind of thing, you should check out our games app on Facebook: multi-player games, leaderboards, points, trophies, avatars, etc.

i clicked on the list of games, but you had to be registered to facebook first (boooooo). i’m a myspacer and i’m not good when it comes to keeping up with my page. i’ll look for reviews of the games and if they are good enough, i’ll have to sign up to facebook.

Basically if I was a games publisher I’d be trawling my back catalogue to see what games could be remade into a Facebook application. Just imagine how big this could be once the F8 applications work on Facebook mobile?

Interesting idea. I've been thinking about what kind of games would suite the FB space. Seems to me that someone could do well releasing a game like Advance Wars (the Nintendo game) on is. The turn based nature is perfectly suited to FB.

Also, turn based strategy games like Civilisation could be scaled down to work on Facebook I would've thought...
