Mobile social games are cooler than Sunday Night Football
And that's just on the Flurry network for iPhone. According to data compiled by Nielsen and Flurry, a social network for iPhone games and applications, more people played social games on their iPhone than those who watched Sunday Night Football on NBC.
When television is competing with mobile social games for viewers, you know this industry is more than a fad. Not to mention mobile social games on the iPhone alone are only about two years old. Flurry welcomes 19 million daily players for 22 minutes on average through the 50,000 apps that support the network, which is only 4 million viewers away from the most popular TV out there, American Idol. With numbers like this, it's a no-brainer for studios like Zynga and CrowdStar to look at mobile as the next frontier.
Count in players from other mobile social gaming networks like Open Feint and Plus+, open up the device categories to include Android and Blackberry and you got yourself far more eyes than that glorified Star Search American Idol will ever reach. It's no wonder that media giants like Viacom are joining Microsoft in looking to join the fun. It looks like we're going to see plenty more ads in our games than we might like come 2011.

2011's hottest gadgets all have one thing in common...
Games. And those hopelessly addictive casual games, at that. According to an end-of-year poll put together by SodaHead, a leading opinion-based web community, the five best gadgets of this year all provide game entertainment. The website's poll of 962 people declared Apple the clear winner, with its iPhone 4S and iPad 2 taking 39 and 25 percent of the vote, respectively.
Of course, it's pretty clear at this point that the iPhone and iPad game scene is thriving, especially when it comes to "free". Following Apple's empire is Amazon's Kindle Fire with 17 percent of the vote, the Nintendo 3DS winning the hearts of 12 percent of voters and the Nook Tablet scoring 7 percent of the vote.
While the 3DS is billed as more of a hardcore mobile gaming device at the moment, Nintendo promises that more casual games are the way. The Nook Tablet and Kindle Fire, however, have made casual games a major pillar of their strategy since day one, with game franchises like Bejeweled, Words With Friends and Angry Birds available on both devices already.
A sample of just under 1,000 might be considered rather small, but we're willing to bet that more than 1,000 folks would generally agree with the results. A look at any of these devices' sales numbers--well, the 3DS's later numbers--can attest to that. As for 2012, you can likely expect our prediction for 2011 ring even truer: Mobile games will burn hotter than ever. Check the infographic in full below.
What do you think was the best gadget of 2011? If you own one of these devices, what's the number one thing you use it for?

EA gets ghastly with Ghost Harvest on iPhone and iPad
Ghost Harvest 2
And no, we don't mean that literally (we're not that quick to pass judgment, folks). EA, through developer 8lb Gorilla, has just released Ghost Harvest to iPhone and iPad. The game is a free download in which you'll assume the role of a ghost farmer of sorts. OK, you're the curator of a cemetery, but what the game amounts to sounds a lot like ghost farming. As curator, you must grow and cultivate a community of spirits to sell them for Karma and profit.
But the locals just think you're one of those satanists or something, and will do whatever it takes to thwart your presumed worship of the dead. You'll fight them back in a tower defense-type mini game as you farm more ghosts and spruce up your cemetery. (Again, with the farming.) At any rate, you must level up and create more effective defenses against increasingly clever intruders. There aren't many social features to speak of (yet), but check out the budding Ghost Harvest community right here, and give the game a shot. What can you lose when the game's free?
