Will Wright on Wii, PS3, XBOX 360

Will Wright, speaking about “next generation” gaming consoles:

Somebody asked me what I thought next generation meant and what about the PlayStation 3 was next generation. The only next gen system I’ve seen is the Wii—the PS3 and the Xbox 360 feel like better versions of the last, but pretty much the same game with incremental improvement. Bu tht eWii [sic] feels like a major jump—not that the graphics are more powerful, but that it hits a completely different demographic. In some sense I see the Wii as the most significant thing that’s happened, at least on the console side, in quite a while.

More in the short interview with Guardian Unlimited.

GameSpy: Will Wright Presents Spore… and a New Way to Think About Games

Cool writeup of a demo of Spore, a new game from Sim City creator Will Wright that lets you play God. You start creating microbes that eventually evolve, at your bidding, into space-faring cultures that can teraform others worlds. Seems really cool.
