They have to cater to the casual gamer.
In terms of scale alone, there's 15 Farmville players for every 1 COD player. The casual gaming market is 20-30 TIMES the size of the hardcore gaming market, just in number of consumers alone.
Add in the fact that casual games take much less money to make (sometimes MILLIONS OF DOLLARS actually) and it makes it, much to my chagrin, a no-brainer.
