This doesn't surprise me, since it's what I am doing and believe, but big money is starting to migrate into Flash games.
I'm not talking about in the portal space, where sites like Kongregate have been grabbing up the traffic with their stable of games, but actual "real", non-disposable games are starting to be made.
Flash is more than stable and capable enough to make a very good platform for just about any (non-3d) game you'd care to make. You can even make a pretty decent MMO client with it, and have a whopping 98% penetration and decent performance.
The story that brought this to my attention is here, where some company raised 8 million dollars for a Flash football game. Now, that's American football, not real football.
But damn, 8 million. Where can I find a bizdev guy that can do that?
