If you can get to the Apple Store in downtown San Francisco (1 Stockton Street) by 7 pm PDT today, you can catch a one-hour demo of Spore - this would be the full bore Spore due out in September - led by the creator himself, Will Wright.
Interestingly, I'm in Washington D.C. for the weekend - normally we publish a little BART jaunt away from S.F. So if someone up that way can pop in and ask Will what, specifically, will get you banned for making Sporeporn beasts in Spore Creature Creator, I'd be obliged. Use as many clinical terms as possible, like, is an apparent glans by itsef banworthy, or must it also be attached to a shaftlike appendage? Also use "frenulum" and "taint."
The official EA release with who/what/when details is after the jump.
Who: Industry Icon Will Wright, the Chief Designer from Maxis, an EA studio. Wright's games are some of the most popular and acclaimed titles of all time, including SimCity and the mega-hit The Sims, which recently celebrated 100 million units sold.
What: Wright will provide a public demo of his latest project, the hotly anticipated game Spore. One of the most ambitious games ever made, Spore gives players their own personal universe in a box. Create and evolve life, establish tribes, build civilizations, sculpt entire worlds and explore a universe filled with creations made by other gamers. Spore gives players a wealth of creative tools to customize nearly every aspect of their universe: creatures, vehicles, buildings, and even UFOs.
