Less iphone games, more planetary annihilation.
Well, they shit up SMNC, so I don't have a lot of faith of them.
So instead of doing something for their floundering game, they just make something that's sorta related to its universe and call it a day? Egh, suppose its to be expected.
I was sad about SMNC, it was a really good game but they just didnt get it to a good playable state for beginners to retain anyone; brand new players were constantly being matched against people with hundreds of games and getting destroyed/quitting. It has a lot of potential but they got the timing all wrong, they should do a promotion weekend or something to try and give it a player boost.

Can't matchmake what's not there.

Yeah, the matchmaking was never really matchmaking, even upon 'release' (The game was [I]never[/I] ready for release. ) the game just found random people regardless of rank or time played.
