Wright to Life: VG Cats and Spore

May 12th, 2007 by Brian · 1 Comment

This is far from new, but I just thought I’d bring it to peoples’ attention anyway.

VG Cats, an online comic by Scott Ramsoomair, did an amusing little comic on the upcoming god (?)-game Spore. Likely to be prophetic, because, well, this is just about how much freedom Will Wright’s newest simulation will probably GIVE the player.

What makes this instance TRULY interesting is the fact that the Spore development team actually responds.
