Yeah I read the neogaf article. I'm a little worried about them drawing inspiration from Cityville and Farmville.
To be fair, Stewart Gilray sounded a little worried about making the comparison himself. I don't think he's actually suggesting that they're going to make a game similar to Farmville; just that they want to make it successful in the same way. Possibly also in including social features.

Also, it sounds pretty clearly like they haven't decided the platforms it's going to be released in. It seems to me that the browser-based examples are unlikely if they're going to go with full HD.


In case it isn't clear, I think this is good news. I've been critical of JAW in the past, but not today. Huzzah!
