You might find this suprising, but the top social gaming companies on the iPhone are not the same ones you know of from Facebook and MySpace. Zynga, despite $54.2M in funding, has hardly made a dent on the iPhone. Neither has Playfish, which was recently bought for $300M. Playdom hasn't done squat, either. Although "the big three" of social gaming are great at online games, they aren't doing too well on the iPhone. For example, Zynga's Mafia Wars game hardly hit the top 25 throughout its time on the App Store.
