news|previews|screens|videos

Spore is the culmina♔tion of Will Wright’s years of simulation experience- it is finally a Sim Everything, which was actually one of Wright’s original titles for t🎃he game. If Wright’s previous successes (you know, like SimCity, SimEarth, SimLife, and The Sims) are any indication, Spore will be one of the most engrossing, rewarding, and addictive games of ’08.

Based on what we’ve seen of the game thus far, and Wright’s reputation as a genre-definer, we’re officially preemptively calling Spore th꧙e best game of 2008 right now with the option to change our minds at any time in the future.
