VGA 2008: Will Wright's got a new project, he's not talking
This won't come as a surprise, but we're betting it'll do your spirits well. Will Wright just told us, "I'm working on a big new project that I'm very excited about, but I don't want to talk about it yet because if it takes three years to come out I don't want people saying 'Wow, he's been talking about that for a loooong time.'"Jeez Will, you sound like a guy who's had a little (read: a decade) of experience with that.

SimCity 5 without a grid system. I will accept no less.
Foetoid @ Dec 14th 2008 8:38PM
Grid System FTW!

weren't they supposedly working on Spore for the Wii? Maybe its that
unclesben @ Dec 14th 2008 8:34PM
wow will is creating a new game i though spore would be his last what can he do now what type of new sim can it be?
BPMOmega [gamertag] @ Dec 14th 2008 8:35PM
You made the first mistake by admitting you're working on a new project.
Sokkratez @ Dec 14th 2008 8:36PM
That's a fantastic quote. I don't blame him. Critics get over stuff really quickly. Attention span (and often times professionalism) of developmentally disabled six year olds.

Spore 2: The Return Of Disappointment?

Wow, maybe this game will totally bugger up my PC!

I dont really want to wait another 10 years for another disappointment
Ethan @ Dec 14th 2008 9:21PM
I want a cat simulator. Actually to make you a cat so you can climb trees and lick yourself and act retarded. That's pretty much gold.
Strategy_Panda (The Sandwitch Poisoning Crew) @ Dec 14th 2008 9:40PM
I hope he actually makes the game that SPORE was supposed to be
Pat @ Dec 14th 2008 9:43PM
You know what, Will is still my hero. Go Will Wright!
Alien Lord @ Dec 14th 2008 9:47PM
Who cares what he says. he's made one game to date and it wasn't even very good. No sim anything isn't a game.
Poisoned Al @ Dec 14th 2008 10:09PM
What, are you 12? He made two of the greatest games to date. That's why this one was a huge disappointment.
Come back here when your balls drop!
Ihavepants @ Dec 14th 2008 10:09PM
Eh, he's made more than one game. Even if they are within an overlapping franchise they're still different games.
Still though, never cared for any form of "Sim" titles.
Alien Lord @ Dec 15th 2008 3:37AM
Poisoned Al Spore was his one game and it got old fast, fuck I didn't even finish my first play through. Now don't give me that shit sim anything of his is a game cause they aren't. Oh and by the way I'll bet I'm much older then you because my balls dropped over twenty years ago.
D-Pad @ Dec 15th 2008 9:37AM
"I'm much older then you because my balls dropped over twenty years ago."
That may be, but you're still an ignorant fuck.
Of course the Sim series are games. Only an utter retard would claim otherwise.
Dismissed.

IS THAT A LEATHER SUIT??
Diskoboy @ Dec 14th 2008 10:43PM
Oh, goody! We get to wait another 5 years, only to have EA ruin it by adding secuROM!
Levi @ Dec 14th 2008 11:26PM
insert really bad Spore joke here
Wait, no, I'll go the serious route
I hope this will be a current gen SimAnt
justshovejayohbe @ Dec 15th 2008 1:31AM
spore was pretty cool, but i wish more than just appearances were customizable -- i wish it were possible to engineer the planets and whatnot into works of art the way I feel when I build an incredible city in SimCity
Lekko @ Dec 15th 2008 2:45AM
He's actually working on a game where you manage a virtual person sitting at a computer playing his own games.

Good, hopefully he can keep up the not talking streak, so we don't have to hear about how his next POS is "the future of gaming"
krizoitz @ Dec 15th 2008 4:13PM
I agree with the other commentors, Spore, for all its hype and potential was a huge dissapointment, made the more so with the inclusion of SecuROM. I enjoyed many of his earlier games (SimCity's, SimAnt, etc) but lately? Meh. The Sims' held my interest for a few weeks then got old fast.
At this point I'll expect little, and if he produces something great, well then i'll be pleasantly surprised, but he has a lot to make up for.
talkimposter @ Dec 15th 2008 4:21PM
That's OK Will... my hard drive stills smells like shit from Spore... take your time. I'm sure there will be plenty of time to overhype the next big thing from hte Land of Wright!
talkimposter @ Dec 15th 2008 4:22PM
Hey maybe it's a ll the good shit EA cut from Spore...
Naw, that's TOO EASY!
Jack @ Dec 16th 2008 11:31AM
"Spore was his one game and it got old fast"
If you look on the cover, it says "FROM THE CREATOR OF THE SIMS".
