Country Story embraces Roman architecture with My Empire items
It's rather common in Facebook games to see a developer releasing items in one game that take on the theme of another game of theirs. Tonight, Playfish has done this very thing by releasing a small set of My Empire themed items in Country Story. Roman items on a farm? Not too far fetched actually - Roman architecture is used to influence many different styles of buildings. And who would turn down beautiful Roman columns? Certainly not us. Here is the list of the new limited time My Empire decorations.
Cupid Statue - 20,000 coins
Lion King - 60,000 coins
Roman Archway - 5,000 coins
Roman Fence 1 through 6 - 5,000 coins each
The most interesting piece here is certainly the Lion King, which is a previous little lion with a shield riding a cute horse. We're not sure exactly how it will fit in our farm atmosphere, but hey - it's cute. At this point in time we're not sure if more My Empire themed items are coming or how long these limited time decorations will last. Hop on over to Country Story and check them out.

FishVille: Limited time Warhorse and Candystripe Hogfish
FishVille is absolutely one of the best games at constantly keeping limited time items refreshed in the Store, and always having something new and exciting to buy with Sand Dollars. The two latest limited time specialty items are the Atlantean Warhorse and the Candystripe Hogfish.
The Atlantean Warhorse is part of the huge Atlantis theme and is a red-colored variation of the previous Atlantean Seahorse. This unique looking seahorse doesn't come cheap though - it will cost you a hefty 18 Sand Dollars. Luckily, FishVille just made a major change that prevents any premium Sand Dollars fish from dying. At 18 Sand Dollars, this boy better be awfully gorgeous! He is available for the next 4.5 days.
The Candystripe Hogfish is indeed a real type of fish, generally found in the Pacific Ocean (and in saltwater reef aquariums around the world). This limited edition fish costs 12 Sand Dollars and will be available for just about a week.

Facebook says 'so long' to the virtual gift shop starting August 1
For those of you who would spend your hard-earned cash to buy virtual birthday cakes, flowers and teddy bears on Facebook's virtual gift shop -- this news might come as a surprise. Last night, Facebook announced that it will be closing its virtual gift shop permanently starting August 1, so the staff can "focus on improving other products ... such as Photos, News Feed, Inbox, games, comments, the 'Like' button and the Wall."
The gifts that have already been sent or received will still be visible on your Facebook Wall and items will still be on display on your gifts page. Third-party gifting applications will still allow you to send a virtual wish, such as RockYou's popular Birthday Cards App, the Hallmark Social Calendar and -- my personal favorite -- the irreverent someecards.
Love 'em or hate 'em, the virtual gifts on Facebook can be credited with the success of Facebook Credits, which is quickly becoming the de facto currency for social games, and it also showed that Facebook users were willing to part with few real-life dollars to purchase virtual goods, making it possible for freemium games, e.g. FarmVille, to exist and reach critical mass.
The Facebook gift store closing, on the other hand, serves as a reminder that while you -- the consumer -- open your wallets to buy virtual goods on Facebook, in social games, that this investment won't necessarily stick around for the long term. That's something I'll certainly think about the next time I'm tempted to use my credit card to buy a 'limited edition' whatever in the dozen or so social games on my daily radar.
