My friend linked me to this video tonight of Maxis' new game called Spore. You basically start life as a single cell and work your way up to the point of discovering galaxies and learning from them. I would never normally watch a video this long but once it got started I was hooked and didn't want it to end. I don't know how popular this game is but I figured I'd link it here to see what people think 'cause I personally am amazed by it. Been waiting for someone to get the Black & White concept right since Peter Molineux royally fucked it up so long ago now.
