An award-winning game developer and one of the most influential individuals in the industry. He's best known for founding Maxis, and subsequently developing SimAnt, SimEarth, SimLife, SimTower, SimCopter, and the SimCity, Sims, and Spore franchises. Wright collects artifacts from (and is a general expert on) the Soviet Space Program.
Suffice it to say, Will Wright is a very interesting man. Only he is able to put Pokemon and Godzilla into the same discussion and still have it be within some sort of context, however insane it just might be.
I love listening to this fella speak. Guy is way smart. He does a great job of discussing some very advanced concepts in incredibly simple ways. I get this feeling that if he ever taught at a primary school, the kids would all be geniuses within weeks.
I personally think Will Wright is way too smart to be making games, he should be out inventing things right now. Needless to say I'm still glad he is making creative games instead of the same streamline games on the market.
Yeah, pretty much everytime he talks it's like my brain is trying to keep up on what he is sayin. He should be working at nasa or something, not making the sims :P
