Little news piece about one of the main Firaxis (Sid Meire, Civilization games) developers leaving to join the Spore team. Since this game was suppose to be out by now, then bumped to Oct, I can only think that if your adding new people still it's going to get bumped again. Too bad too, really looking forward to this one.

The scope of the game is huuuuuuuuuge and I think that they don't want to make the mistake of over promising and under delivering.

Though short, we get to see a little more combat then we have in the past.

Unfortunately, it's confirmed. Looks like sometime after March 08:
