Will Wright talks Spore and defensive cows

by Alexander Sliwinski { Jun 27th 2008 at 11:00AM }

1UP has a nice video interview with Will Wright where he discusses various elements of Spore. He covers the different stages of evolution in the game, the AI built into the creature creator and tells a good story about a really mad cow.

For Civ IV fans, Wright also briefly talks about Soren Johnson's contribution to the game. Johnson left Firaxis last year to go work on Spore and help the team streamline the title. The full interview can be found after the break.

God, I still can't believe a guy like Will Wright supported Giuliani.
That's all I can think about when I see him.

Chedder @ Jun 27th 2008 12:09PM

What?? My comment got deleted? That's the first time that's happened to me. I didn't even say anything outrageous, just a reference to all the news stories that have discussed the first type of creature that lots of people seem to have decided to create right away (let me give you a hint: a twig with berries).

Someone at joystiq is pretty god damn sensitive. *leaves the room slamming the door*
