EA has said Will Wright's Spore will definitely be out before Christmas, in the wake of analyst speculation that the game will be delayed to autumn/winter '08.
"We're very, very bullish", said EA CEO John Riccitiello about this during some financial conference call thing yesterday - but at this stage that's as much as the publisher is willing to divulge on release timings.
"We're not announcing dates for any of our titles", Riccitiello teasingly added.
As the latest game from design genius Will Wright, Spore is understandably surrounded by Godzilla-sized anticipation. Read all about the title on our gamepage.
We all know how a rushed game ends up. Somehow waiting 12 years for a Duke Nukem sequel doesn't seem that daft if it turns out to be good.
Whilst I don't rate Valve's games as anything better than above average, at least they release their games when they're good and ready. That is probably one of the biggest factors in the quality of Valve's games.

EA=s**te (except from games they don't make) Fixed even more. p.s is the name aircool refrigeration related?
Good = The more time spent on Spore, the better the end result.
Bad = EA continues to go by the "THE BUSINESS MODEL IS GOD!" principle and the reason cited for the delay are purely because EA's share performance is p**s poor, which is deserved. Nice to know EA have their priorities sorted.
Now this is one game that could bring alot of people back to PC gaming. From the video's I've seen, it also looks like you wouldn't need a super computer to play it so thats another plus that could push this to the mainstream gamer. I just hope they don't rush it through and end up doing a 'Fable', ie lots or promises that went unkept...
