If you're excited about the upcoming (September of this year) Spore from Sims creator Will Wright, then grab a few sodas, turn off your cell phone, and kick back with this
nine page preview given by the man himself. Quote:
The "cell" stage is where Spore begins. Much like the classic Snake computer games, you're swimming around as a tiny bacterium, eating anything smaller than you and trying not to get eaten by larger organisms.
As you munch on flagella and other bits of floating protein, you'll gain levels, grow larger and eventually crawl out of the ocean.
While "cell" is the first stage of the game, Wright and company have decided to open Spore up and let players begin at whatever stage they want.
"We want the easy player to turn it on 'easy,' and enjoy just the creativity. It's more like they're making these toys and want to play with these toys in a fun way," said Wright.

Among the flurry of details released today about Spore, coming September 7th for the PC, one interesting tidbit might have been missed along the way. When you create your custom alien race, spaceship, or vehicles in Spore, you can upload videos of them to your Youtube account with just one click from inside Spore.
