facebook games?

trau · January 3rd, 2010, 09:35 PM

Anybody know of any games that link up with the simple games on facebook? For instance, on my ipod touch I could play Lexulous. Just trying to find something simple to kill time in secretary of state lines and office meetings that I can play against my co-workers.

I'd also like to know this?
With Flash 10.1 coming to android soon (Droid already supporting) you may be able to play the other games including Poker etc.

Could someone please confirm if i'd be able to play Texas Holdem Poker on facebook since its flash based when the flash update comes out?

I'm also eager to learn more about this possibility.

I've been thinking about this since before the Droid came out...playing farmville and bejeweled blitz would be awesome

I reckon you will be able to play facebook games when flashed is relased for mobile phones. Ofcourse maybe the game designers may have to change the games a little to optimize it for mobile viewing

Cool, well if anybody catches wind of something like that, keep us posted!

I think Carl is right. I don't think all Flash games are going to work. If you watch the Adobe video on the N1, the man clearly says that they are working with specific gaming sites. Without a standard mouse and keyboard, the interfacing is different not every game is going to work. Luckily though, touching the screen and moving your finger around is fairly closely related to moving a mouse, so it may "just work".

Zynga Poker would be awesome on Android, I had it on my iPhone before I "upgraded" to a Hero...

I'm also eager to find out, reason why I got my Droid is cause I knew flash would be coming soon. Although, the Sony PSP has a flash on it, and u still can't play Facebook games like Zynga poker on it, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed and hoping.

andyriot · January 15th, 2010, 09:57 AM

well my Hero does flash, but will not play any facebook games. i dont think mobiles ever will... because even my macbook kicks up the fans and works overtime when i have those flash games going. theres way too much going on in some of those games for the mobile hardware to handle. (ie: biggest farm on farmville, or multiple fish tanks in fishville)

of course thats just my thoughts. i could be totally wrong.

iamloco724 · January 15th, 2010, 06:50 PM

i dont care if i could play through the browser but i think bejeweled people should make a blitz for android like they did iphone

huytung · January 17th, 2010, 03:32 PM

i'm able to play mafia war from the browser in facebook in case anyone like that game

anderson620 · February 27th, 2010, 07:49 AM

I stumbled across a game called m:Vampire which will link to your Facebook account. I had never heard of it on Facebook before but it does in fact exist. It's not too bad, plays like most of the other games on Facebook.

Update: Just found a new (new to me, anyway) game developer that does Facebook and smartphone games. http://www.moblyng.com/

Hope this helps!

When Flash 10.1 comes, it will run Facebook games. Below is a video of a Nexus One running the leaked Desire Rom with Flash 10.1. Around 2 minutes in, the guy plays Farmville. FYI, they are also working on porting this rom to Droid.

Yep, I think farmville is really the only game that I would like to see working. I have found other games on the market almost identical to the rest of the facebook apps.

Never say never, bill gates once said 512mb of memory was all anyone would ever need for computing, and well, now see what we have? The newer phones with faster more powerful processors ie, nexus and a few others can handle it, especially if adobe makes a mobile version of it, they just seem to be dragging feet for some reason.

That would be the worst! Facebook dies on the weekends and in the afternoons when the kids come home as it is. If people were constantly farting around with those games, you may as well kiss the database on that webserver goodbye.

Zynga Poker is up now isn't it?

Any info, fixes , 2 cents would be great. Thanks

I'm just wondering why exactly I am not able to play these flash based games (like farmville, criminal case, god father five families) in my tables when I CAN see the flash based youtube videos.. both are flash , right?? Do the games require any other version of flash?
