I don't think they can reasonably expect great success from behaving in this manner Zinga made a lot of money for its owners and investors before imploding.

  I was surprised that in a way "justice was served" (and rather quickly, at that) in Zynga's case. I hope we see that happen to king too. But most likely they will get away with it, as usual.

    Justice wasn't really served in Zynga's case, Marc Pincus managed to cash out quite a bit, the people suffering are the "Death Star contractors" that is the developers hired at Zynga.

      Well, to be fair, the second time the rebels killed tens of thousands of those contractors they managed to get the two guys at the top.

      Any developer working for Zynga knew the risk involved. If they got screwed over, it's their own fault. A developer should listen to his common sense, not his wallet. The money might be right, but they shouldn't take the job if the risk is too high.

  Well, Zynga is still worth $3Billion dollars...
  • timje1 13y ago
    You are quite right. The implosion I refer to is the share price going up to $15 mid 2012, and dropping down to a fraction over $2 by the end of it. Its future is not bright, but it could still pull something magical out of its hat.
