It would seem that only Will Wright can decide the console war, as the versatility of the Spore creation system is put to great use here. The above image is of several buildings that have been adapted by a player to resemble a Wii, a PS3 controller, a GameCube and an Xbox 360.
Certainly cute, but more importantly, it serves to highlight Spore's adept asset creation. Could it be that we're finally close to a game that allows the creations you had intended to make, instead of a poor and shoddy shadow of the golden image that's trapped in your mind? Too many times have I known the frustration of character creation systems that refuse to give me what I want, so if Spore can do things like this, count me in.
I must confess I really haven't been hugely hyped for Spore. Images like the above, however, go some way to providing a remedy for that.

Don't forget to watch the 14min Demonstration.
After which then you'll be excited about this game!
If only! And dreams were made of candy! Then I'd be a very happy boy.
And then user generated content filters were created, and Will Wright saw that it was good.

I'll make a zombie specie that will eat their boobs!!
And I'm totally making a Mr. Banana Grabber specie. Complete with Segway.
I'm psyched to explore the universe in the space phase. They apparently capped the planets at 5 million.
