For those excitingly awaiting the release of the universe designing game from the Sims and SimCity creator, there is good news!

First, the game is slated to finally be released sometime this year. And on top of that, EA has promised it will be released for Mac and PC at the same time. Now, after WWDC 07 last summer, this was the arrangement. However, that hasn’t been the case yet as far as I know, so hopefully they will play their cards right and make right by this mammoth release.

Anyone have thoughts on this game? I’m not usually a gamer by any means, but the general idea of this and the fact it’s backed by the guy who created my two favorite games….well, it gets me excited.
