Awesome presentation. Worthy goals and amazing implementation.

Can't wait to try Spore now.

Excellent presentation indeed... and I wish I had more free time to devote to a game like Spore. Darn kids sap all my time

I do have to make a point about Montessori schools though. We looked into having our kids go to one instead of the usual preschool (this is a school for 2 and 4 year olds). While they had some nice activities etc. they were soooo regimented with the kids... X toy had to be played with ONLY on Y mat, and only in Z way. When you had finished with X toy, put it back EXACTLY as you found it before playing with ANY other toys. There were prescribed ways and places of playing with everything, times for playing with certain things... everything was SO very controlled, and seemed to us to be removing any of the childhood wonder from playing.

I've been waiting for Spore for about three years now to get closer and closer to it's release date, and every new video or preview I come across has me salivating just that much more. I'm afraid now, however, that by the time it hits the shelves my PC won't be able to run it at all, and last I heard only the Wii was going to get a console-version of Spore. So my little 360 takes it's first blow against it for not allowing me to enjoy the galaxy of Spore.

WOW. I've heard a little about the game, but that presentation made it look amazing. I think I'm going to let this be the first non-fps game I've played in a long time.
