The social media gaming czars over at Zynga might be moving into the console space, specifically the Xbox 360, at some future point. Though no official development announcement has been made, Zynga CEO Mark Pincus told Giga Om that he envisions a future in which Xbox players can pick up where they left off in one of the publisher’s browser or social games right on their console.

Right now we are building back-end technology, so that your game state can be saved and served up in difference screens/devices. The interaction cues will take from the different devices. In other words, you can play a game on a computer and call it up on Xbox and you resume from the point you left off, except the game play will now be customized for the Xbox controller.

Titles from Zynga — such as FarmVille, CityVille and seemingly anything else that ends in “Ville” — tend to differ from most of XBLA’s success stories, but certainly there is a market for more casual fare. Diner Dash, for instance, was able to enjoy some success on the platform before being yanked off of it.
