Spore: The ultimate God Game
If you like games like Civillization, Sim City, The Sims and stuff like that you might want to take a look at Spore. It's been in the making for quite some time now, and is the brainchild of game designer Will Wright. This Spore gameplay video really gives you a feel for the game.
Now that I've hopefully sparked your interest you might want to take a look at this Spore related interview with Will Wright at Popular Science. There's also a bunch of images at Spore's homepage. Spore is supposed to be released in 2007... I'm feeling a weird need to upgrade my computer, wonder why?
