Who else is looking forward to this game for PC?
Who is crazy enough to not look forward to it, with it allowing you to create all the content as you play, including your own animals, from scratch?

I, personally am looking forward to this game. Any opinions or questions about it?

If Will Wright can deliver everything that he promised this game will have then I'll be a happy man. What will impress me more though is when I actually see the game in the shops, what's it been now? About 6 years in development?

It's due out in April, I think. And from a number of demonstration videos I've seen, it really delivers!

Pretty much, you create your unicellular creature and you are given your own planet, filled with creatures created by other players, most likely temporarily loaded to your computer each time you play through Maxis's servers, as the game seems to require internet to play, though it is not multiplayer. And, you control your creature and try to make it survive until the ultimate stage of the game; The Space Race.

And when you get to the Space Race, you can go back to any stage of the game to create your own creatures once more, terraform a planet, or create your own variant on another player's creature.

From the videos I have watched, all of this is confirmed, though they did not say specifically how other players' creatures are loaded to your games as you play it.

I seen a trailer for this last year. Robin Williams tested it out and loved it. Would I get it? Nah.

You're missing out if you're not going to give it a chance, Will Wright's made some of the most popular games ever in SimCity and The Sims and this just raises the bar yet again.
