Today, one of the world's biggest game publishers announced not one, but three extensions of one of the biggest gaming franchises ever. Yep, we're getting a whole lot of Ville games from Zynga.

The Ville is one of the biggest announcements from the company--a game so important it doesn't need a prefix. In this Facebook game, you'll be able to "create the home of your dreams," "choose your own career," and socialize with friends. It looks a lot like The Sims Social.

Next up is ChefVille, a restaurant simulation game which allows players to create and customize their own virtual restaurants. Intriguingly, you'll be able to "earn real recipes to use" by playing the game.

Finally, there's FarmVille 2. Little is known about this sequel, but The Verge reports that it appears to be much like the original, "only with improved visuals and animation."

      Zynga reminds me of the rich kid in middle school who would always buy things to fit in with the cool kid's trends. Yo-yo's are in this week? I've got an atomic! Oh now we're doing Magic? Check out these 10 booster packs. Always behind, always throwing away money to fit in.

      IMHO..Zynga games are falling apart..I myself have had nothing but trouble with their Cafe World and me and many many of my fellow facebooker’s have quit their Cityville & Frontierville aka Pioneer Trail and on the verge of leaving Cafe World. Constent connection trouble, lack of help and communication with so called customer support. Instead of constantly making new games they really need to fix the bugs and glitches in their exsisting games. I for one will not play a new game of theirs until I’m assured we will not face the same issue as we do with their existing games.
