Take a look at Spore.

cool stuff :icon14:

for those who've watched the clip and still aren't sure,. a lot of what you're seeing is procedurally generated.

I just hope half the stuff they're showing now will make it into the game...

Edit: The RTS stuff seems a little boring though

Edit #2: Yet I think I would kill to play this.

That game looks fucking awesome! When he zoomed out to show the solar system, I was blown away. From a single-celled organism to colonizing an entire galaxy...

This game has a lot of potential. Hope fully it won't turn out to be a jack-of-all-trades-master-of-none type of thing where every aspect of the game is lackluster.

Didn't watch all of it, but that looks like quite an interesting concept. Might actually have to try this out when its released.

It's pretty far along for year-old footage. I hope it comes out soon, and I hope my computer can run it. :p
