Restaurant City World Cup 2010 foosball decor
Restaurant City is bypassing their current Lounge Bar theme, and following up on their World Cup 2010 country flags release by bringing a bit of footy flavor to the foodie scene. Eleven new decor items, of which seven are Astroturf floor tiles, are ready to turn your restaurant into a giant foosball table. Each lined tile costs 75 Coins, while a regular green patch of pitch goes for just 40. The Red and Blue Foosball Statues are a hefty 2,700 Coins each, along with a Football Goal post going for 12,000 Coins -- and it's all only available 'til July 13th!

Restaurant City Soccer GiftsTwo other limited time offers include the Football Stove and the Foosball Table, which promises to cook "faster than a Brazillian striker on a breakaway", or practically speaking, 15% faster. Foosball Table earns 5 Gourmet Points (the game's equivalent of XP) and 1,700 Coins every 4 hours, and never breaks from use. But these two items require Playfish Cash to purchase -- the stove is going for 20 PFC, while the game table costs 35 PFC. (To give you an idea of cost, $5 USD equals 25 PFC.)
Finally, no game would be complete without a soccer ball and a referee. Restaurant City is offering both as gifts-only items (with the referee portion being uniforms that can be worn by your waiters), so you can get 'em for free from friends.

Happy Island: How to Use Your Salvage Ship
Happy Island Salvage Ship
Happy Island Archipelago ViewFor the first time, Happy Island has released a marine vehicle that isn't a premium -- the new Salvage Ship . Offered for a thrifty 2,400 Coins, it's cheaper than most of the island attractions. After purchase, the Salvage Ship will be in your "My Stash" (a.k.a. storage chest), where you have the option to sell it for 1,200 Coins -- but don't! Because once you figure out how it works, it can rake in big rewards.
Each person is limited to one Ship. You can use it once a day to possibly bring back coins or rare items... now here's where it gets tricky, especially for new players used to tending to a single island. To use the Ship, you must switch your game window over to "Archipelago View".
To do that, click on the globe on the upper right corner of your screen. When you get there, open up "My Stash", click on the Ship, then click "Place" to put it near one of the islands that you own. Click on the Ship again, and you'll get the option to "Salvage".

Immediately, a window should pop-up telling you exactly what the Ship has found. In my case, it was 1,000 Coins.
Happy Island Salvage Ship Treasure Recovered
If you want it to search some more, each additional chance to "Salvage" will cost you 2 Facebook Credits, or what's essentially $0.20 USD. (But if you're willing to spend real money, you should grab yourself the Undersea Explorer the next time it resurfaces.)

Mafia Wars Global Cup event extended to midnight tonight
Feeling lucky, punk? You will be if you haven't completed your Mafia Wars Global Cup Collection yet -- the time to collect all six limited edition balls (and unlock a new weapon called 'Injury Time; 38A, 52D, get one step closer to scoring the 'Winners are Grinners' achievement) has been extended to 11:59 p.m. PT this evening.
Since I was out of town last week attending the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) in Los Angeles, I started this collection super late in the game. So I'm definitely feeling lucky. Today, I've already managed to secure the English Ball, French Ball, Italian Ball, Argentenian ball by fighting and doing regular jobs, and my fellow Mafia Wars friends sent me several Spanish Balls.

It has been difficult to secure the German Ball and Brazilian Ball, since those are drops from the special Global Cup jobs. I decided to apply a few hard-earned Marketplace credits to speed up the jobs and did the Alter the Vegas Odds job, which gives you a 50% chance of getting a ball. Sure enough, I scored the German Ball on the second try. Now I'm off to try to nab the Brazilian Ball and complete my collection just under the wire.
Got any good tips on how to complete the Global Cup collection fast?

Happy Pets: New Limited Offer "Pot of Gold" is a cauldron of goodies
Never minding the fact that St. Paddy's was over four months ago, Happy Pets decided to release a premium limited offer item called Pot of Gold for 90 Facebook Credits (or $9 USD).
You can get it for yourself or gift it to a friend. But either way, this pot is a rainbow cauldron of goodies. And it's available while supplies last.
Check it out -- every day, you get one click on the pot for a free prize. That prize could be 1 FB Credit (and you can win up to 14 FB Credits, or $1.40 USD). After that, you'll get a Microcat as the 15th prize (see our Catzilla article for comparison images). Finally, every day, you get 300 Coins forever.

Three Disney brands we want to see on Facebook
Today, Disney announced that its buying social game company Playdom, spending half-a-billion dollars to bring the company in-house. Now, in addition to owning Social City, Wild Ones and My Vineyard, Disney already owns hundreds of brands that would be right at home in the Facebook gaming universe. Playdom and ESPN (also owned by Disney) were already working a series of sports games together, but here's three more Disney brands that could easily make the jump to the social side.
X-Men
Disney recently purchased the rights to the Marvel Universe, and those tights-wearing heroes seem perfect for a Mafia Wars-style Facebook game, starring Wolverine, Professor X and the gang. You'll choose your character, and you and the rest of your superpowered friends will face off against Magneto by doing missions and earning X-points which can be used to buy items for your own customized version of the X-Mansion. Or, more likely, Disney could simply decide to release a version of Marvel SuperHero Squad Online on Facebook in November.
Pirates of the Caribbean
One thing we're starting to see more of on Facebook -- pirates! Who doesn't love a pirate? Zynga's Pirates: Rule the Caribbean game never reached critical mass, but, lately, we've spotted pirates in Treasure Isle, Playfish's Pirates Ahoy and in LucasArts' Secret of Monkey Island: SE on Facebook. Pirates of the Caribbean Online is already out there, and that makes it a swashbuckle away from landing on Facebook.
Tron
Lightcycle racing game on Facebook? Yes, please! Tron Legacy hits in December 2010, and that's plenty of time to rework the classic Tron racing game into something that's a little more socially inclined. We can see it now -- you can race to earn points that can then be used to buy customizable parts and lights for your ride. So far, racing games have been few and far between on Facebook, maybe it's time to put the pedal to the medal. Alternately, a social game starring the Tron Guy would have major geek cache.

Of course, this is only scratching the surface of Disney brands that would be ready to make the leap to Facebook. (My Games.com cohorts mentioned Gargoyles and Who Framed Roger Rabbit as other possibilities.) It's hard to tell whether the Mickey Mouse franchise, Pixar films like Toy Story or Disney's kid-centric Club Penguin will be part of Disney's new social gaming empire -- you have to be at least 13 to play games on Facebook. You'd also be hard-pressed to find parents who would be comfortable with letting their children games in an unrestricted social environment. But, considering the lack of established brands on Facebook, there's plenty of room for a full-on Mouse House invasion in the not-so-distant future.
