FarmVille Ready To Harvest A New Crop Of Users With MSN Games Partnership

Zynga's smash hit FarmVille is about to reach a new audience of future tractor riding, crop harvesting fiends. Today, the company announced that FarmVille will now be featured on MSN Games, Microsoft's casual gaming portal. This marks the first time that a Zynga game will be featured on a full-fledged gaming site. And it's only the first step: Zynga says that more of its games will be appearing on MSN Games and Windows Live Messenger in the near future. Unfortunately it looks like you'll need either IE or Firefox to get this working (sorry, no Chrome or Safari). Which is just stupid, given that FarmVille works fine on just about every browser out there when you play it on Facebook. We've asked Zynga why this is — it almost certainly has something to do with the way MSN Games is set up. Zynga has made no secret of its desire to expand its games beyond Facebook.com. In November, the company launched a dedicated web portal at FarmVille.com, and it's doing the same thing for other games as well.
