(We've grown unexpectedly fascinated with <a href="http://kotaku.com/343590/work-and-play-a-peek-inside-the-lives-of-gamings-greatest">people's desks</a>.) "It's not a bug, it's a feature" never gets old. And it's a veritable game of spot-the-technology-that-shouldn't-be-here inside Wright's workspace. Well, "shouldn't" for game developers who aren't trying to launch the SimEverything genre. Somehow, we think Wright needs everything in the photo.<br /><div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/will-wrights-office/">Will Wright's office</a></strong></p><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/will-wrights-office/#637912"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2008/02/dsc_0092_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/will-wrights-office/#637911"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2008/02/dsc_0091_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://www.joystiq.com/photos/will-wrights-office/#637910"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.joystiq.com/media/2008/02/dsc_0090_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><br /><br />
