FarmVille GagaVille Sneak Peek: Electric Rose Crop, Chrome Hay Bale

So, we're all super excited about GagaVille coming to FarmVille, right? I mean, even if you're not a fan of Lady Gaga, just think of all of the new items that will be added to the game. For collectors and mastery-sign fans alike, this is set to be one giant event, and it will apparently start with Chrome Hay Bales and a new Electric Roses crop. Why? We've found images of those two items that are as of now unreleased in the game, which means it can only be a matter of time before they're released.

The Electric Roses look to actually glow, giving them the potential to steal the title of prettiest FarmVille crop ever (at least in my book). Of course, we'll have to see what the final product actually looks like growing side-by-side in a large field before I make that choice. As for the Chrome Hay Bale, it's your basic square Hay Bale, but with a shiny, metallic twist!

We'll make sure to bring you continued coverage on everything related to Lady Gaga's appearance in FarmVille / GagaVille, so keep checking back.

In the meantime, tell us what you think of these two brief sneak peeks in the comments. Do you like the idea of glowing crops, or do you appreciate more realistic crops and decorations?

Earn 4 free FarmVille Farm Cash in Capital One promotion

At this rate, perhaps we should just rename FarmVille "Capital OneVille." Why? Yet another cross-promotional activity has launched in the game, allowing users to walk away with 4 free Farm Cash. Unlike the Capital One farm and goat, or even the Capital One free gift that can be sent to friends, this promotion is found where most other free Farm Cash promotions are located: underneath the FarmVille gameplay area.

This promotion is a fairly lengthy one. Once you launch the activity window, you'll need to watch a full Capital One trailer, and can then answer some quiz and survey about what you've seen or the Capital One brand in general. Don't worry - these "quiz" questions are incredibly easy, and if I had to make a guess, it likely wouldn't matter which way you answered; you'd still likely get the Farm Cash at the end.

After manually answering one fill-in-the-blank question, the activity will finally be complete, and you'll be the proud owner of 4 free Farm Cash. This is double the amount of Farm Cash we normally see released in such promotions, so at least it excuses a bit of the additional time it takes to complete this particular activity. As usual, you'll want to complete this promotion as soon as you see it pop-up underneath your game; there's no telling when it will expire, and you will have missed your chance.
