Ultima creator teams up with Zynga

Newsbrief: Richard "Lord British" Garriott's Portalarium studio today announced a partnership with social games giant Zynga, with its first social title Ultimate Collector coming to the Zynga.com platform later this year. The title is already available to try as an open beta on Facebook, and tasks players with attending garage sales, spotting incredible bargains, and then selling them on for a profit. The game is also set to have a television show to run alongside it when it fully launches. The show will be hosted by Garriott, who is an avid collector of rare pieces.
