Zynga Pulls Out the Glue Gun

June 26, 2012

The introduction of multiplayer gaming is very interesting, according to Pietro Macchiarella, an analyst with Park Associates. Up to now, Zynga games have been asynchronous -- a player plays them at their leisure without regard for other players, he explained.

"Now Zynga can afford to have synchronous games because it has such a huge user base that it always have some players online," he told TechNewsWorld.

It's estimated that Zynga has 292 million users, 65 million of them using the service on a daily basis.

From the article, "Zynga Pulls Out the Glue Gun" by John P. Mello Jr.
