Spore makes it to Time’s 10 Top Games of 2008

This item was filled under [ Spore News, Video Games ]

Time Magazine has selected what they believe to be the top 10 games of 2008.  Spore comes in at #10 stating:

Sims creator Will Wright spent seven years writing, researching and designing this evolutionary epic, which may well be the most ambitious game ever made. Spore follows the history of a single species, designed by you, from a cute little single cell up through sentience, civilization and finally space exploration. The innovation here doesn’t lie in the gameplay, which is merely entertaining, but in the sophistication of the animations that make your creation walk and move and dance, and in the game’s hubristic, near-infinite scope.

The rest of the list?

1. Grand Theft Auto IV (360, PS3, PC)
2. Braid (360)
3. LittleBigPlanet (PS3)
4. Rock Band 2 (360, PS3)
5. Gears of War 2 (360)
6. Dead Space (360, PS3, PC)
7. Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (Wii, 360, PS3, DS, PSP)
8. Hunted Forever (free Flash)
9. Fieldrunners (iPhone)
10. Spore (PC)

Glad to see Dead Space make the list…and shocked that Braid made it.  I’ve heard nothing but awesome reviews for that game.  Wish I had a 360 to try it myself.
