The Gaming Addiction ? foxtail studio

From the New York Times:

Some people argue that Zynga?s signature games ? FarmVille, FishVille ? shouldn?t even be called games. As Nicholas Carlson of the Web site Business Insider wrote: ?They are click-machines powered by the human need to achieve progress by a predictable path and a willingness to pay small amounts of money to make that progress go faster. They are not ?games.? ? But you could argue that games like FarmVille are in fact just the logical end of gamification: gamified games. They have the appearance of games, they inspire the compulsions of games, but for many people they are not fun like games.
