"On their official blog, BioWare has provided an extended FAQ of their just-announced Google+ port of Dragon Age Legends on Facebook... I'm dubious as to how successful social media sites really are when it comes to video game promotion, but there it is."

These new paid games, game trials and “buy once, play anywhere” pricing are coming to Play.

I'm not interested in these social platforms but some of these games look really interesting.

"I'm dubious as to how successful social media sites really are when it comes to video game promotion"
Really really?, I'm no fan of this social website gamimg model but they make a steady and constant income with micro transactions and advertisements.
It really comes to no surprise.
Even Web browsers games like Battlefield Heroes and Battlefield Play4Free are extremely successful.
