In an interview with “The Gaurdian”, Will Wright states that his much delayed sims game “Spore” will be released for the Wii and the PC.
Spore was to be released in 2007 but than changed to some 2008 ETA date.
The idea of Spore is the same as all sim games in that you direct the earliest stage of primordial soup into a civilization. The game will allow you to direct the evolutionary path of your spore/creatures.
Alright space cadets; get your training panties on because you’re about to shit yourselves!

Xbox Portable, originally uploaded by jonjon_01.
As I’ve been speculating about the Xbox Portable, it comes as a big shock that Microsoft has decided to distribute the game system via a major distributor!
The Xbox Portables are very portable and consumes much less battery power than the DS or the PSP.
I do not know how Microsoft can be giving these systems away for such a low cost!
Alright, I need some sleep, getting delusional again.
Well, I’m starting a rumor/speculation and I haven’t heard anything to verify that what I’m about to say is real. The only thing I can say is that I want it to happen.
Just think about it, why shouldn’t Microsoft not release a portable gaming system for it’s Xbox franchise? Nintendo’s got their portable, Sony’s got their portable, and even the old Turbo Graphix had a portable.
More competition means more gaming choices for me.

Tomorrow at TRU, in New York city, Microsoft, along with Radio Disney and Toys R Us is having a nice little gathering to show the family fun that you can have with the Xbox 360. They will be giving away prizes, games, accessories, and more as well as some extra surprises in-store.
The GamerchiX crew will also be there.
As if you haven’t watched any of their episodes.
Whether you love em or hate em, the show and its antics are popular.
Now that Jackass: The Game is available on PSP, you can do all the foolhardy dangerous stunts that they are so well known for without the injuries except possibly Nintendoitis/hand cramps.
