Zynga shutting down four games, OMGPOP site
OMGPOP games Cupcake Corner, Gem Rush, Pool World Champ and Snoops will come to a close on August 29; OMGPOP.com will officially cease to exist on September 30, 2013, three months after the studio's closure in June. OMGPOP was impacted by the same cuts that saw Zynga's headcount reduced by 18 percent.
Zynga notes: "This decision will not affect Draw Something, Draw Something 2 or Draw My Thing - you will be able to continue playing after OMGPOP.com has closed."
The social games giant is currently reinventing itself under the direction of new CEO Don Mattrick, former head of Microsoft's Xbox division.

Mortar This is terrible news as OMGPOP is a thoroughly enjoyable site, especially the pool. It will be a shame to see the website close.
Pool is pretty fun! Draw Something is also great!

Zynga is so bad. They should have shutdown the zynga site and kept omgpop
