Ground-breaking ‘Spore’ Delayed
Spore, the brainchild of Will Wright, the legendary creator of such
innovative titles as 
SimCity and The Sims, will allow players to create and
control the evolution of an entire race from their humble cellular beginnings
through to conquering space.
The bad news was dished up at a pre-earnings briefing, where it was
revealed that Spore will not impact on EA’s 2008 financial year, which ends in
March 2008. EA attributes the delays to quality control. EA CEO John
Riccitiello said:
“Spore is a title we have enormous confidence in. I've had the chance to
review the title three times in my short return to EA and it looks fantastic. I
will also tell you that its release will be right up to the bubble in Q4 [of
fiscal '08], if not sometime in early fiscal '09 so we don't feel comfortable
in forecasting it.”
