Will Wright shows off his new game, Spore. He talks about the limitless creativity you have in the game somewhere in the middle of the clip; how each player could follow a vastly different course depending on their own choices. I was thinking about the same thing (albeit backwards) about 8 hours through Paper Mario; there's probably a good chance that someone else had done the exact same thing I did in Paper Mario for hours and hours of the game and yet, it was still fun. It's this vast middleground of games that don't know how to deal with their own limitations and aren't complex enough to be creative that are boring.
