Spore is going to change the world
I really can’t describe what using the spore creature creator is like in words. I don’t think anyone can properly while giving it the credit it is due. I played with it for a few hours last night and can genuinely say that the experience with that of the first day of launch of an MMO that I’ve been waiting to see for years.
One thing they need to do a better job of is advertising the mousewheel though. It’s the only part of the interface that is not naturally intuitive. I was able to scupt my creations a lot more effectively after I learned about the mousewheel.
Go here to see my creations:

Strange, I found it to be quite simple, actually. But then coming from a design background and not gaming, that sort of vector-esque manipulation is quite natural for me. I think there will be many more animated vital organs in the future. Hehe
