I dub "Awweeee" an official "Phu" word. By the way, you know if you say your last name first, you make a redneck contraction more appropriately stated: "screw him?"

I'm done :-)

That's the guy who was lead designer on the first Civilization game I haven't liked, so this is great news for me. Maybe when they make Civilization 5, I won't hate it..

Anyways, I wonder why he's going to work on Spore so late in the game. Spore should be finishing up development now, no?

That's a great headline, btw.

@Sub: I'm sure they still have to work on porting it to every console, portable, OS, PDA, watch and refrigerator known to man.

"In a recent interview Soren has announced that he is working on a secret project that will combine a game from the 1980's and another from a well established genre."

The Strike series returns as a FPS?

It's the tiiiime of the seeeeason for leeeeaVIIIIING!

Every one and their mom seems to be high tailing it out of the biz these days.

Yes, bitchin' headline.

I don't think EA's much of a poorly constructed cabin out in the woods behind his old house, though.

M.U.L.E heart C&C Engine?

I loved Civ IV, so for me it's a question of which game am I looking forward to more, Civ V or Spore? Definitely the latter, so I'm happy.

@noire:

I'm banking on Pitfall May Cry.

I'm going for Grand Theft Sim City. You can build the city, and then you blow it up!

Soren got married already October 2006, his wife is like a genius, speaks 9 languages or something. He made Civ III and CivIV, not the first civ i think.
His wife is a French model/and TV presenter. But still he is an asset to any game he works on

Shwaii

Too bad for Firaxis, i am sure EA is the winner, who is going to work on CIV V? SOren good work man, i am a fan.

@toaplan: OMG good old M.U.L.E.

Unless it's the long awaited Oregon Trail! RTS

Didn't I read somewhere that they were going to marry x-com in the civ engine?
