Looking Forward
I am one of the many people looking forward to this game. This is probably going to be another of the hugely popular and exciting games by Will Wright. An outstanding new feature for this game will be the ability to share your creatures with any other player via the internet. This induces a massive singleplayer game that keeps the game from getting old.

Hmm...Interesting.
Now we all know of Will Wrights' works; the man who created classics like Simcity and the Sims 1 and 2 (which I own most of them). Now it seems like he's about to outdue himself again. The bits of info are as scarce as that when Half-Life 2 was announced years ago. But what we do know is that this game is aiming big, and I mean big! The game starts out rather small at first. From a microscpoic bacteria consuming other microbes, struggling to survive. As its done eating up enough points, it moves on to the next phase: the creature phase. From here on out, we see the true nature of the game as it is. Every aspects of the player's creature; raging from its legs to its feets etc...etc, is made up by the player. It is really sweet (no not kind) of the developers to allow us to customize our creatures as we see fit. My only complaint would be, if it be true or not, that their won't be that many options to fool around with. But that will have to wait until we get more information. <

>Anyways. So we got the ability to customize our creature, nice. Once we've done enough woo-hooing, eating, sleeping, while avoiding danger and gathering some more points, we set ourselves up for the third phase. In the third phase, we gain control of an entire tribe. Gone are the days of being a one man army, for now. We now have a tribe to tor...err...I mean guide through some turbulant times. Once we've manage to get them on the right foot to safty guarrentie, they move on to their forth phase: city phase. Heres where we get to customize the buildings (ranging from what looks like farms, apartments, fortresses, etc...) as we once again take up the mantle of leadership. I believe, as you will all agree, this will be like Simcity in someways, only made simple. <

>All right, all right, we've gotten to the point where were managing a city, now what? Well its time to be like that of the Romans: explore, conquer, and dominate the known world. And thats what phase 5 is gonna be all about; building up your empire to be militarally, culturally, or politically influencial with other cities in order to reign supreme. I bet this is where some good old RTS brawling will commence. Of course, this will be made simple, as Will would want it to be easy to get into. I only hope it won't be too simple to manage, otherwise it will be too quick to get to the next phase. <

>Well, here we are, you've bitten, clawed, talked, and fough your way up to being the only species to erect an glorius empire. Now what's next? Settle down? Nope, its time to enter into phase 6: space! Yes friends, outer space awaits us after we reach #6! From here on out we get command of our only starship. It is not clear wheather there will be more to come, or if we can build starfleets (that would be awesome!!!). But what we do know is that we'll get to explore our little galaxy, (little is somewhat an understatment) encounter alien races of other player's creation, and enevedably build up a galactic empire! (ques the Imperial March). Yes, I believe phase 6 will be the most looked forward to out of all other phases. (in my opinion that is) <

>Did I forget to mention that all that we make will be stored into a database that will be distributed to other players? Yep, your species may end up on Tom's Planet or Judith's Civilization has come in peace towards Mortimer's inferior race on Bob's Planet. Now about this, we won't get to actually play with each other (that would be a bad move for Maxis in my opinion) Rather we get to choose the many subjects that are up for display. Our galaxies will be filled out with all of what we've made. I find this interesting; I like to play alone sometimes, but its nice to know that not all that I see has been made by the developers. <

>So in closing, this game has alot of things going for it. No news as of yet of whats going on. But I've got my fingers crossed it will be all good news (like a release date or a new trailor) But who knows really? I don't. What I do know is that for those of you who are iching for some more info on this ambious game, its best to sit on you hands and wait. Or go to the website to check it out. Like the only saying goes "good things come to those who wait" Too bad I don't know who came up with that line.
