SPORE: Electronic Arts

In "Spore", Will Wright lets players create their own species and send them off on a journey through five billion years of evolutionary history. In the process, he succeeds in combining elements from casual, strategy, role-play and action simulations into a single game - and opens the door to a games galaxy in which all living elements are designed by the players themselves. "Spore" is at the same time both complex and comprehensible and will have an inspirational effect on video game development for many years to come.
