Indeed, some of his games never really appealed to me (like The Sims various expansions) most of them were fantastic and of great design. I absolutely cannot wait for Spore and I do hope it's not another Fable where I'll get dissapointed due to the lack of features that were promised but never implemented.

*Note: I won't lie, The Sims at first was appealing. It got boring fast when they started pushing all those expansions out.

EA owns Maxis, but his work isnt going into the expansions. I like the sims though, I havent played the second one in along time.

I think EA knows enough to let Wright do what he wants. Besides, I'm pretty sure he knows that he'd have plenty of options if EA tried to limit him.

I'm pretty sure he'd be better off without EA... if he joined a more competent team he could be able to do much more.

I'd love for him to work on Fallout 3 at bethesda but that won't happen, as far as I know he is not the sort to make violent video games.

If they want to make a game they should make one that starts off in prehistoric age and then gos all the way into the future.And then make an expansion for space travel.Colonize the moon,mars.I'd love a game like that.

Edit:I forgot about civ 4 but I don't know if it goes into the future because I've never played.

I've had some good times with the Sims, hehehe... One time I made a hideous michael jackson looking guy and a little boy. It provided for some good laughs for about 30 minutes.

Civ 4 goes into the future but it doesn't allow for space travel or anything. Closest you get is the Rocket wonder afaik.
