    While I wipe up my spittle. Color me impressed.

    Not a Sim fan but this may win me over, I love evolution games as an idea, but they still feel cookie cutter. & they would have to. Spore's system seems to break that. I welcome his ideas of genre hopping and asynchonous content sharing.

    I knew the demoscene was gonna get its props some day, I just didn't think it would come from the Sim master. Kudos Will, You can count my money now.

    Just got done watching this, its absolutely amazing. As he goes on and keeps pulling out to the next level of gameplay, I find myself thinking "wow, cool... it'd be cool if you could go further, but I bet it stops here..." Around the local stellar group level, I just stopped thinking and let the drool cup slowly fill up.
