One thing that I worry about with these 3rd party high score/social sites is that they all sort of started out geared towards iPhone. Since Apple is going to start their own social gaming thing, built into the SDK, it kind of makes me wonder if these 3rd party companies are going to dissolve into nothingness since their cash cow is going to potentially go away. Sure, they have Android to help support them, but from what I have seen with the various SDKs and features, their Android support has a long way to go.
