GamePie the name for the app will give you an avenue to rate review and recommend games to all of your friends that have also added the application. I got to chat with Sean Spector co founder of GameFly and Jason Wade product manager for the application about what exactly it will do for the gaming community on Facebook and hints to where they plan to take it. When you first add the app you will be presented with several pages of games that you can rate on a scale of mark them as one you are being interested in playing or simply say that you aren t interested. Once done with that you will move on to your profile page that allows you to see a feed of your gaming friends most recent activity inside of the application and what there feelings are on various games. If you want a more detailed look into their gaming life you simply need to click on their name to go to their own gaming profile page. Also for a bit of fun you can set a status to your account specific to the app so feel free to add a status such as the game you are playing and what level you are stuck on. The most intriguing thing to me was the individual pages built for each game. Whether you click on the game inside of a profile or if you choose to use their search you will be taken to that game s individual wall page. Here you will see how your friends as well as the community as a whole are rating the game as well as leave typical wall style comments about it. If you prefer to leave something a bit more permanent you can also choose to write an actual review that will be stored on another tab. For now the application catalogs the games released for all of the Sony and Microsoft consoles Nintedo going back to the Gamecube and Game Boy Advance and for the PC and Mac back to approximately . Eventually they hope to have entered every game for every console all the way back to the time of Atari bringing the catalog to somewhere around games. If demand warrants it you may also someday see regional versions of the apps so people can discuss games specific to their countries but for now it is North American games only. Currently the application is only available on Facebook but they do have plans to extend it out to MySpace Bebo and Hi . The only thing I found mildly disappointing is that there is no interconnectivity with a GameFly account if the user should happen to have one but Mr. Spector assured me that was a definite possibility down the road. All in all this is a solid application no matter what the subject matter and for gamers it could become an indespinsible tool to help you decide your next purchase or influence a friend to play your favorite.
