Google Plus will have social games, too, source code reveals

It looks like developers like Kabam and LOLapps might have been right in getting hyped about Google Plus. According to Engadget, Google is planning to integrate its now-nebulous Games platform into Google Plus. And it's all in the source code, baby.

When a tipster dug deep within the nascent service's--it just entered an exclusive beta test--source code, he found these words littered everywhere: "have sent you Game invites and more from Google+ Games..."

And then the code trails off into some alien language we can't bother trying to understand. But alas, Games and Google Plus will be one some day. Of course we already knew, thanks to a blatant job posting, that Google is serious about its games effort.

So, we still know just as much as we did before: Google Games is happening ... and that's about it so far. (Well, we also know that the games will be social, but that was a gimme, no?) We've contacted Google for comment.

How do you think Google will implement Google Games into Google Plus? Do you think Google has a chance at competing with Facebook and the existing mobile platforms in the games department? Sound off in the comments. Add Comment.
