Scrivener Posted March 15, 2005 Report Posted March 15, 2005 I'm sure many of you gameophiles have already heard about this, as word is spreading across the internet like wildfire. Will Wright is working on a new game called SPORE - where you litteraly start out as a single celled organism and evolve your way into a spacefaring race of creatures able to endlessly explore the universe and mysteries it holds. I kid you not. http://www.gamespy.com/articles/595/595975p1.html http://www.1up.com/do/previewPage?cId=3138792&did=1 I'm working on locating some good screenshots. P.S. After reading the recaps of the GDC address, I have to admit I'm giddy as a schoolgirl about this game... and that's something I havn't felt in a VERY VERY long time. Could we be entering a new renaissance for game design, just as we started expecting development costs to become even more ludicrous? Is the future actually now? My friends, this is a very happy day.
Scrivener Posted March 15, 2005 Author Report Posted March 15, 2005 Oh wow, that looks awesome! I - want - it - NOW.
Supreme Cmdr Posted March 15, 2005 Report Posted March 15, 2005 It sounds suspiciously like Populous meets Black & White meets The Sims. ....at least until EA gets their hands on it and commercialize the crap out of it. btw, Scriv, the subject you have chosen is just the kind of hyperbole that publishers love. Good job.
insecttoid3 Posted May 21, 2005 Report Posted May 21, 2005 http://pc.gamespy.com/pc/spore/616537p1.html?fromint=1 new spore info from E3 definately near the top of my list of games to get as soon as they come out
Cruis.In Posted May 22, 2005 Report Posted May 22, 2005 what would I DO as a single celled organism? Im hoping that part is the like quick 5 minute introduction prologue right? some people just go to far...
TARWMSRK Posted May 22, 2005 Report Posted May 22, 2005 Im looking foward to this-- but I doubt it can be done. Well, it can be done but come on now... this game is just... epic.
Guest Grayfox Posted May 22, 2005 Report Posted May 22, 2005 errr... well its a bit different. i really cant think of any sims type games that start you out as a single cell organism... looks interesting. strange... but interesting
Ben Zwycky Posted May 22, 2005 Report Posted May 22, 2005 I'm very rarely tempted to buy a game (the only game outside the BC series I've bought in the past 5 years was Heroes of Might and Magic IV), but I'll be following this one closely.
Spindoktor Posted May 25, 2005 Report Posted May 25, 2005 Sounds like a cool concept. But like B&W, I'm betting it will never live up to the hype it is going to receive the next 6 months.
insecttoid3 Posted May 26, 2005 Report Posted May 26, 2005 http://www.pqhp.com/cmp/gdctv/ you can watch the entire hour long presentation will wright gave in february there
sparky Posted June 15, 2005 Report Posted June 15, 2005 Hm, seems to be a BIG game, and big games (after my experiences) have got stronger tendencies for lots of ugly bugs. And by the Gods, I hate bugs.
