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

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

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

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.

Yes, bitchin' headline.

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

"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?

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.

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?

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 :-)
