SyFy reveals its new programming lineup, which also names Defiance as the MMOG in the works at Trion to tie-in with an upcoming TV series, saying the game is due this year (thanks Big Download). Here's word, which also reveals some Facebook gaming plans:

Syfy Ventures is launching a new publishing business of completely sponsorable genre games under the Syfy Games banner. Available initially on Facebook in the United States, the suite of high quality games will embrace the sci-fi, fantasy, paranormal, action/adventure, and superhero genres, ranging from original content to games based upon Syfy programming. These first round of games are scheduled for launch later this year. As well, Syfy is partnering with game developer Trion Worldwide for a new entertainment franchise, Defiance, that will seamlessly pair a primetime series with an online video game, scheduled for 2011.
