PopCap rolling out Zuma Blitz on Facebook
10
Hot on the heels of PopCap stating that social features would be added to all its existing games, the company has announced Zuma Blitz for Facebook. Zuma Blitz is "expected to roll out gradually" in three weeks with a beta. The company will update the app with weekly tournaments, new levels, an 'experience points' system to unlock features and "a 'treasure chest' virtual currency-based system for obtaining in-game power-ups."
Zuma Blitz is PopCap's second "full-fledged" Facebook game. The casual e-crack developer previously released Bejeweled Blitz, which, according to PopCap, has had nearly 30 million players and 100 million sessions daily since being introduced 18 months ago.

Their games are fun but a bit too casual for us hardcore, Joystiq players. In the end, I'd rather play Mario Party than any of these PopCap games.

@dngrhm What on earth are you talking about? You make it sound like I responded to a post and missed the sarcasm when, in fact, you're replying to me.

So, you are a hardcode gamer yet can't see good gameplay and games in front of you? Sounds like you rely on what your friends play only as what's "hardcore".
Most PopCap games have more gameplay than some "hardcore" games do today.
