Go figure Zynga does not have the talent it takes to create such a winning game, it looks amazing. Regardless it will add to their rep nonetheless. I for once am anxiously awaiting this release.
The best bet for Zynga is just that, betting on real money gambling. They have the means $$$ and the apps to do it and a good execution of both will yield great revenues. They just need to be quick about it before FB beats them to the punch.
I see the following happen in the future:
1) Zynga and FB no longer in business together
2) Zynga goes the independant route via project Z
3) FB will still want to fill in that 13% rev loss by creating its own RMG games as it is going to be doing soon.
Problem with the above is that FB has far more $$$ to work with and more talent Plus their user base is so huge that if that was to take off for FB expect that stock to SURGE! They are just butthurt that zynga thought of it first but hey they are just taking it from a page in Zynga's corporate handbook.. Take from your competitors their idea and tweak it for yourself... Pay the lawsuit fees later and continue banking on success.
Sad truth but the truth nonetheless.
