Sina Science and technology news Beijing time November 30 morning, the regulatory documents submitted in Wednesday showed that Facebook adjusted its cooperation agreement with Zynga, a social game developer. Under the new agreement, Facebook will have the right to develop the game on its own, but the company then denies it will.

Before that, it was widely believed that Zynga had received Facebook's preference in the deal. The latest agreement shows that Facebook is balancing Zynga's treatment with other companies in order to attract other game developers to support their own social networks.

The new clause gives Zynga more flexibility, allowing it to provide games on its Web site, but requires the company to comply with the same rules as other Facebook game developers.

The two fastest-growing Internet companies have been working closely together. In recent months, Zynga has contributed more than 15% per cent of Facebook's revenue.

The revised terms allow Facebook to develop games on its own. But Reuters quoted a person familiar with the matter as saying that the company "did not develop games or plan to develop games." ”

Facebook and Zynga have been reducing their dependence on each other. Zynga has developed its own zynga.com platform, and Facebook is aggressively attracting other game developers.

Zynga's shares plunged 13% per cent to $2.26 in Thursday.

Under the many new agreements, Zynga could not use Facebook to pay for revenue or to post Facebook ads.

"We have improved the terms of the agreement with Zygna, allowing zynga.com to follow the same policies as other companies when using the Facebook platform." "We will continue to work with Zynga as we do with other developers of all sizes," said a Facebook spokeswoman. (PEI)
