Spore

I first heard of it in 2005 I think, and was instantly intrigued. I want it now. More information can be found at totalspore. Conceptually I love one aspect of the game. It's a massively SINGLE player game. Meaning your experience in the game is on your own, however, the game is updated to reflect the changes everyone else is doing on their own as well. I like the persistant, multiple user affected environments of games like WOW and Everquest, but the people annoy me with all the power leveling and money whoring, but this sounds like the best of both worlds. Independant gameplay, with multiplayer effects. I hope it ever happens.
