Game dev brands Xbox LIVE as 'too small' for his firm

4.2

The chief game designer of Zynga has essentially branded Xbox Live as 'too small' for his successful social gaming firm. Explaining his thoughts, he noted that probably around 30% of people he knows have an Xbox 360, but 100% have Facebook and 100% have a Smartphone. So in that respect Xbox LIVE is pretty small.

TTG SEAN Zynga is a waste of space go copy and paste some more games if microsoft put the time into social gaming with the money microsoft have they would crush zynga

Agreed, But the problem MS have is that they wont as its too late.

The console is reaching its 10 year mark soon and it will be considered obsolete in contrast to newer consoles.
