he confirmed his ambitious evolutionary game SPOREis in the works for the Wii.

"The only next-gen system I've seen is the Wii -- the PS3 and the Xbox 360 feel like better versions of the last, but pretty much the same game with incremental improvement," he said. "But the Wii feels like a major jump -- not that the graphics are more powerful, but that it hits a completely different demographic. In some sense I see the Wii as the most significant thing that's happened, at least on the console side, in quite a while."

no nothing is announced, but it's common sense. Spore is going to be on every platform that can plan games.

The guy created the Sims and SimCity. His design style fits perfectly with the Wii. Why wouldn't it sell?

Well, he sees what fanboys here are incapable of seeing. The Wii is a bold system that is taking the first baby steps to truly changing the way we play games. In thirty years if we're playing a FPS by entering a room and the game comes alive around us, it'll be because of steps in innovation like the Wii has taken, not the XBOX 360 or PS3's idea that next gen is making the textures more shiny. Improved visuals will always come in time. Changing the fundamental way we interact with our games takes boldness. Nintendo showed that with the Wii.

Do you really want to still be shooting with the R trigger in 20 years?

No offense but don't give me that. I don't don't wanna hear that stuff. Don't tell me motion sensing is what we all need and where everything is going. I will not be playing FPS's and shooters with a Wiimote I'm sorry.

Mostly cause I just love the controllers and also a bit cause I like to relax when I game... and sometimes I will wanna play a motion sensing kinda game but the vast majority of the time and with many genres I only want it on a controller. There's new standard the Nintendo is creating. People who like it can move on with it but I won't be one of those people. The controller is the best for me and it will always be that way.

Yes because yoyr comparing Spore to games like Tony Hawk and Fifa. Hopefully Wright will do this game correctly and give it full attention, if he uses all the advatages Wii has (use it as a motion sensor not a mouse and DS connection) THEN THE GAME WILL BE AWSOME.

I doubt he is gonna have any involvement with spore on the consoles either....chances are it will be EA...which always did the sims ports and expansion packs.

The Sims was on every platform it could be on as well, unfortunately only the PC version had the full-featured editing. It's too RAM / Hard drive intensive, I imagine, to see the "full" version of Spore on a console, it's just one of those games. So, if you're not getting that, it make sense to have some kind of compensating feature, something that Will Wright seems intent on giving the Wii (and its completely different demographic).

We'll see, it's curious news.

there have been many sim games and many have A or more. Sims 2 is actually the one of the worst rated ones on GS. probably because the ps2's hardware was just too far behind at that point.

the original game on ps2 as well as Bustin' Out did better but lets also not forget that the game came out about 2-3 years after the pc.

All versions of Spore are being developed concurrently at Will Wright's personal studio in Emeryville. Sims was never developed concurrently; principal development for the PC version took place at the Emeryville studio, where Will Wright lives, but the development for the console versions took place at EA's Redwood City headquarters, where the rest of Maxis is shacked up.

The Sims probably sold pretty well on the consoles since they keep releasing new versions. Casuals will eat this one up. Well except maybe the hardcore Christian ones. They'll probably try to ban it from the market.

It's a game where you develop from a single-celled creature into a galactic civilization?

it's not going on 360 or ps3, unless something has changed

If it becomes popular...it will be the next Sims.
