No, it’s not an old Seinfeld episode but a real social games lawsuit. Techcrunch has discovered that Digital Chocolate has filed suit against Zynga.

Update: Digital Chocolate is suing Zynga over the "Mafia Wars" name (Inside Social Games).

Mecha, also known as meka or mechs, is a broad genre of vehicles (normally walking vehicles) which are usually controlled by a pilot.

Mecha often appear in anime, science fiction, and other genres involving fantastic or futuristic elements. Mecha are generally, though not necessarily, bipedal, with arms, hands, and usually fingers capable of grasping objects.

Mecha are often featured in computer and console games. Because of their size and fictional power, mechs are quite popular subjects for games, both tabletop and electronic. One popular classic of mecha in games is the MechWarrior series of video games, which takes place in the Battletech universe.

Let's explore some of the best options in the online Mech games available.

It's a little-known fact that all spies are actually stunning supermodels who infiltrate enemy bases in between photography gigs for posh magazines. Or, at least, that’s the impression one gets from playing The Agency: Covert Ops, the action-packed Mafia Wars-style RPG by Sony Online Entertainment. At first, it’s tempting to dismiss this fulsome helping of eye candy as little more than a flamboyant advertisement for Sony’s upcoming MMO shooter of roughly the same name, but after only a few frantic player battles and rooftop escapes, it’s clear that Sony has created a game worth visiting.

I’ve always had a soft spot for press your luck style games. There’s such a fine line between maximizing your points and losing it all that the temptation usually takes us just a bit too far and we stick around ever so longer than we should.Zombie Dicecombines this basic mechanic with the simple pleasures of brain eating (what, with you being a Zombie and all).

You'd be forgiven for mistaking Meow Meow Happy Fight for another of the App Store's generic twin-stick shooters. There's something about the device that seems perfectly wed to the genre, and it isn't the lack of sticks or tiny screen. But the point is moot. Meow Meow Happy Fight isn't really a twin-stick shooter, its control scheme excepted. The game's look aside, it really has more in common with a shooter like Quake than a shooter like Geometry Wars. This makes it a pretty fresh, if flawed, experience.

Zynga has launched a clever new promotion to celebrate the launch of Mafia Wars Vegas. According to Games.com, Zynga will blow up an armored truck and stream it online if 10 million users play the game. In addition, Zynga will run a sweepstakes where the grand prize is $25,000 and where they will give away 10 free iPads a week.

When it comes to tower defense games, strategy is often sidetracked by players who realize they can just level up a couple of units in key positions and then just skate on to victory. Bump Wars, however, is a game that wants its players to think and change tactics constantly by making sure that the playing field never stays the same from one minute to the next. It's a unique title, blending two different types of games to create something that feels fresh while remaining familiar. For the most part, it succeeds admirably with its fast-paced gameplay and thought-provoking challenge.

Gangsta Zombies is a tongue-in-cheek game that blends zombie culture with Mafia-Wars-style missions and game dynamics. It's mix of familiar game play with the zombie mythos creates a game worth your time, especially if you’ve got a hunger for brains.

Physics games always seem to be about either building things up or breaking things down. Last year’s Finger Physics: Finger Fun didn’t stray from these approaches, but it did have the distinction of being one of the few games to tackle both. Its sequel is largely more of the same, but who’s going to complain when the game was so good the first time around?

Most tower defense games are over-simplified to the point of dullness nowadays. Set up towers, watch creeps follow a pre-determind path, and hope for the best. Every now and then you’ll upgrade a tower or buy a new one, but beyond that, tower defense had managed to become something of a spectator sport. The Battle For Hoth is looking to change all that, placing you in command of an army that needs your constant supervision.

Game developers were a little bit busy these days and gave us a lot of Flash game sequels to play.

It's a premise we've all seen many times before: you control a block, moving one space at a time, and you'll have to make your way from one end of a level to the exit on the other side. From iPhone games like Edge to PC puzzlers like Puzzle Dimension, it's well tread territory. But in spite of this, Voodoo Dice manages to add enough new to the formula to make it worth playing, though at times it can be a little too frustrating for its own good.
