 "Spore Launched in India")
Amidst tons of frenzied gamers, one Bollywood actor who goes by the name of Kunal Kapoor and one excited VJ - Nikhil Chinappa, EA released Will Wright’s magnum opus, Spore, in India for just Rs. 999.
Spore gives players their own personal universe in a box. Create and evolve life, establish tribes, build civilizations, sculpt entire worlds and explore a universe filled with creations made by others around the world. It gives players a wealth of creative tools to customize nearly every aspect of their universe: creatures, vehicles, buildings, and even spaceships.
And here’s what Ajay Khanna, general manager of EA India had to say, “Spore is exactly what the Indian gaming scene needed. Spore will introduce a new concept into gaming in India. The blend of fun, science, evolution and an online community through a great story and easy game play is groundbreaking. All these elements come together to deliver on Will Wright’s big idea – to create and control your own personal universe. Spore is an extraordinary game that has the potential to become a platform for creativity, and innovation for years to come.”

Nash, as he prefers being called, woke up to the wonders of gaming rather late but don't bring that up around him. It's a touchy subject. A self confessed Battlefield veteran, Nash spent a good part of 2010 on the Steam Battlefield - with Bad Company (see what we did there?). He has a zero tolerance policy towards RTS games but is currently showing an interest by picking up and moving people - who he refers to as units - in the office. Thank God he's not that enthusiastic about Angry Birds or we'd be seeing women flying all over the place. Bali... Bali, put the receptionist down now.
