This appears to be such a difficult game to design. In a sense, it's a good sign they are pushing back the release. There is undoubtedly a lot R&D work require for such a different type of title.
Spore reminds me of the promises made in the game Black & White. In the end, B&W wasn't all that compelling to me.
People need to remember, what has Will Wright done outside of SimCity? The Sims. While a huge seller, not what I would consider to be a fun game.

Oh yeah, B&W and... Fable. MAN, those were over-hyped games... I still LIKE Peter Molyneaux, but i just don't trust his hype any more.

I was bored with B&W in about 30 minutes. The Sims took me about a week, and that was WITH all of the cheats, nakes skins, and the "no blur" hack.

Moloth, Dungeon Keeper and Dungeon Keeper 2 are why I still have faith in Peter Molyneaux. Perfect games!
