“Will is the Albert Einstein of the gaming business — no one else is pushing boundaries like he is,” said Geoff Keighley, the host of GameTrailers TV, a specialist web-based video games review.

Will Wright and the Maxis Team must be under a ton of pressure. Everyone hopes that the game will do all right – and chances are it will blow everyone out of the water. But still, there is always that spot in the back of the mind that there is a chance for the game to be a total letdown. I still stand by my word that Spore will kick ass once it is unleashed to the public.
