Zuckerberg while speaking at the ‘Gaming Event’ of Facebook at the headquarters yesterday in San Francisco said that 40% of the userbase of the site visits the site to enjoy the social games like Farmville. According to the statistics, gaming is one of the primary reasons why people visit the site now.

According to the statistics of Facebook, more than 12 million active users play top 10 games on the sites. Zuckerberg said it is complicated because social games, even being in the top five things that are liked by people, they are also in top five things that they hate.

He also explained, games are one of the biggest drivers of negative experiences but poll and games are in top five. At least four large companies are building the games. And games are one of the biggest complaints that they get. He said, they turn weight of game stories in News Feeds they get complaints. They want to build anything which hundreds and millions of people want to use. Solutions are very easy, if someone is playing the game, and they want to context about the game then don’t limit stories about the game. And if you have never played a game then you don’t want to see context from a lot of friends who play that game.
