We've heard for months that FarmVille would be headed to iPhone, and at the Apple Worldwide Developer's Conference 2010 in San Franciso, Zynga CEO Mark Pincus announced that the farming game officially make its way to the Apple phone at the end of June.
There are not a lot of details on how this version of the game will be different than that on Facebook, other than the fact that it will sync with the Facebook version of the game (unlike the Mafia Wars iPhone app), players will be able to buy items without leaving the app, and it will have push notifications for withering crops. Pincus also seems to hint that the harvesting system may be a little bit different as well. "I'm most excited about how good tractoring just got," Pincus says during the game's demo.
We've contacted Zynga to learn more details on this new version of FarmVille, and to see if an official iPad version will be arriving shortly as well.

FarmVille Permanent Crop: Elderberry
FarmVille released a new permanent crop, Elderberry on July 2nd 2010!
Elderberry is unlocked for level 39 and above farmers. Those under level 39 will not have access to purchase Elderberry seeds.
The Elderberry seeds can be purchased for 195 coins, take 12 hours to grow, and yield 270 coins and 2 XP with a profit of 75 coins.
Since Elderberry is a permanent crop, it is not expiring from the FarmVille Market and Crop Master will be available!
Elderberry, also known as Sambucus, has a wide range of medicinal uses including the treatment of influenza B and flu symptoms, the berries themselves have been used traditionally throughout Europe to make wines, jams, teas, and syrups. However, the twigs and leaves of Elderberry can be poisonous. Some other interesting facts about the folklore surrounding Elderberry include, "
"The Elder Tree was supposed to ward off evil influence and give protection from witches, a popular belief held in some cultures. If an elder tree was cut down, a spirit known as the Elder Mother would be released and take her revenge. The tree could only safely be cut while chanting a rhyme to the Elder Mother."
"The most powerful wand in the Wizarding World of Harry Potter is a wand made of sambucus known as the "Elder Wand".
"In some regions, superstition, religious belief, or tradition prohibits the cutting of certain trees for bonfires, most notably in Witchcraft customs the Elderberry tree; "Elder be ye Lady's tree, burn it not or cursed ye'll be" –A rhyme from an Oral tradition." (Source: Wikipedia)

Google snaps up virtual currency platform Social Gold for $75 million [Rumor]
Google is still staying mum on the rumors that it's planning to launch a game-driven social network called 'Google Me' in the near future. However, it's undeniable that the search giant is making a serious play for the social gaming space, having -- in the past months -- invested a big chunk of change in FarmVille-creator Zynga, purchased SuperPoke Pets! creator Slide, and now, has also acquired Jambool, which owns Social Gold, one of several platforms for virtual currency payments in the business. Essentially, if you've developed a social game and are looking to add software that will power the virtual good/payments part of your game -- Social Gold might be one of your go-to guys ... if you haven't already committed to using Facebook Credits, that is.
Google nor Jambool have officially confirmed the purchase yet, but sources tell TechCrunch that Jambool was bought for $55 million, plus another roughly $20 million "in an earnout." It has also been reported that Google has recently been in talks with several social gaming companies, including Playfish and Playdom (which was purchased by Disney weeks ago) to be part of the company's Facebook rival that they've been working on behind the scenes.

PetVille Backwards Caption Contest: It's your pets' turn to fill in the blanks
PetVille Reverse Caption Contest Example
Contests in Zynga's social games are a dime a dozen these days, but now it wants you to try something completely different in PetVille. The PetVille community team is taking the traditional caption contest and putting it on it's head with their Backwards Caption Contest.
Running now until September 16, your mission is to take this caption: "Well, do you know what rats spell backward? STAR!!!!!!," and use your pets and any other items you might have to illustrate the scene. The grand prize winner will receive the item of their choice from the game.
The PetVille Community Team will choose their ten favorite screen shots and post them to the game's forums for the players to decide who wins. Check out the forum post for official rules and good luck! Anything goes with this one folks, so let your creativity shine (in the goofiest way possible, of course).

FarmVille 'Stats' bar makes it easier keep tabs on achievements
Did you happen to notice the new 'Stats' icon that appears underneath your FarmVille farm's name? My FarmVille buddy/co-worker Sharon pointed it out to me this week. If you haven't seen it yet, look in the upper right-hand corner of the screen while on your farm -- and you should see a little brown button that says 'Stats' on it and three blue lines that kind of look like the signal reception bars on a cell phone.
After you find the icon, click on it. A small menu will drop down and will let you know just how much you have achieved in FarmVille so far.
farmville stats menu
This bar lists your stats for the following:
Your level
Achievement Ribbons
Crop Masteries
Co-op Farming Medals
Collections Completed
Constructed Buildings
Right now, you can only see your stats on your farm, but if you go to a neighbor's farm, you will not be able to view their stats. While I always love a good stats bar, it would be great to be able to share it with others, with the intent to spark up a little friendly competition with my fellow virtual farmers.

Mafia Wars free property upgrade -- less than 24 hours to claim your free boost
As promised, Mafia Wars rolled out the free property upgrade this weekend, so that means you have about, oh, 24 hours or so to claim this freebie. You can use this one time on any property that is upgradeable and it will upgrade the property one level. Some players seem to think this is a rip-off, but I'll take any help I can get.
When you upgrade, you'll obviously want to choose to upgrade whichever property will give you the biggest payout. I chose to upgrade my Las Vegas casino restaurant because that upgrade would pay the most of my existing Sin City buildings. Though another sound choice would be to use this on the Chop Shop and Weapons Shop in New York.
Another note: When you upgrade the property, your existing building materials will stay put. So if you had, say, 2/6 Steel Girders before you upgraded your restaurant, you will still have 2/6 Steel Girders after the upgrade as well.

FarmVille 'Fertilize All' limited edition gift was a little too 'limited'
While accepting FarmVille gifts this weekend, I noticed that there's a new free gift going around called 'Fertilize All.' After doing a little research, turns out that 'Fertilize All' was a limited edition gift that appeared in the Free Gifts section briefly before it disappeared again. Not sure if this vanished due to a bug or if this was a truly 'limited' edition gift.
If you were lucky enough to score this amazing gift, accept it from your feed and then open your gifts menu in the game. Click 'use' to instantly fertilize ALL of your crops! Next thing you know, your little farmer will be surrounded by sparkly crops that will yield extra experience points and other bonuses.
Not sure if this generous gift will resurface soon or if this was a one-time deal. Stay tuned.

As cool as this FarmVille Halloween Pumpkin Fountain looks, we have to wonder what the heck is flowing out of it -- pumpkin juice? Orange-Orange Vitamin Water? Regardless, this unreleased water feature looks pretty awesome, though we'll have to reserve our final judgment until it arrives in the Market.

FarmVille Sneak Peek: Holiday Train & Winter Train Tracks
While users in FarmVIlle have been able to create an Evergreen train set on their farm for a few weeks now, it looks as though Zynga will be adding to the virtual train set idea this holiday season, as we've come across new images offering a sneak peek of an unreleased Holiday Train, and a re-do of the current train track pieces in the game to match with the winter spirit (that is, they've been covered in fallen snow).
The Holiday Train (the name could change at any time) will apparently be comprised of four individual pieces, or items that will likely be available to purchase separately. They are the Holiday Train Engine, the Passenger Car, the Caboose, and the Cart (filled with toys).
As for the train track set, there are four new pieces that will be apparently be added to the store - a Winter Train Track Crossing, and three corners, allowing you to build an extensive, customized pattern for your train to "follow," even if only in your imagination.
As usual, there's no information as to when these items will actually be released in FarmVille, but if they are, we're guessing that both the train and train track items will be split between those items that are premium (Farm Cash only) and those that go for coins, so start saving a bit of both now if you want to build a Winter Train on your farm.

Treasure Isle Black Friday Super Sale: Collect balloons for nifty in-game items
Black Friday -- the biggest shopping day of the year -- has arrived and while people are busting down doors in real-life stores for crazy deals, you can do the same in several of your favorite Facebook games including Treasure Isle.
Instead of just offering a straight up discount on virtual items, TI has turned the whole Black Friday experience into a mini-game. Collect black balloons from friends and then trade them in for in-demand items, like, for instance, an extra garden plot, which normally cost 100 Island Cash (roughly $20). So -- all in all -- begging friends for balloons can be worth your while. (On that note, if any of you would like to send me a black balloon, I'd certainly be tickled pink).
treasure isle black friday super sale items
If you're a double dipper, like myself, and also play FarmVille, you'll be more than familiar with Treasure Isle's Black Friday mini-game. Yes, you'll have to kneel on bended knee and ask friends to gift you black balloons (or if you don't like to beg, you can buy balloons using Island Cash). Once you've collected a certain number of balloons, you'll be able to trade them in for rare items. As I mentioned above, I say the Garden Plot is the must-have item (and the Fail Whale seems like the must-have decoration, just for the LOLs). Either way, here's a complete trade-in list below:
3 Black Balloons: Coffee Tray (Decoration)
13 Black Balloons: Raccoon Table
30 Black Balloons: Big Barn
56 Black Balloons: Fail Whale
60 Black Balloons: Swan Boat
100 Black Balloons: Garden Plot

There's also a gift stand part of this BF promotion, place it on your island, and as you collect more balloons the stand will grow more ornate. There was a glitch placing the stand this morning -- the pop-up window below prompted me to place my stand, but then there was no stand to be found. Not sure if many others are experiencing this -- if so, please sound off in the comments below. OK, I found my stand sitting right next to my Gem Mine, which is still under construction (see image below). Since my Treasure Isle island is littered with construction projects, it's hard to tell what's what. Or, maybe it's time to whip out the bifocals. Anyway...

If you're a double dipper, like myself, and also play FarmVille, you'll be more than familiar with Treasure Isle's Black Friday mini-game. Yes, you'll have to kneel on bended knee and ask friends to gift you black balloons (or if you don't like to beg, you can buy balloons using Island Cash). Once you've collected a certain number of balloons, you'll be able to trade them in for rare items. As I mentioned above, I say the Garden Plot is the must-have item (and the Fail Whale seems like the must-have decoration, just for the LOLs). Either way, here's a complete trade-in list below:
3 Black Balloons: Coffee Tray (Decoration)
13 Black Balloons: Raccoon Table
30 Black Balloons: Big Barn
56 Black Balloons: Fail Whale
60 Black Balloons: Swan Boat
100 Black Balloons: Garden Plot

There's also a gift stand part of this BF promotion, place it on your island, and as you collect more balloons the stand will grow more ornate. There was a glitch placing the stand this morning -- the pop-up window below prompted me to place my stand, but then there was no stand to be found. Not sure if many others are experiencing this -- if so, please sound off in the comments below. OK, I found my stand sitting right next to my Gem Mine, which is still under construction (see image below). Since my Treasure Isle island is littered with construction projects, it's hard to tell what's what. Or, maybe it's time to whip out the bifocals. Anyway...
