A pointless intersection between PC games and politics
Tuesday, November 4th, 2008It’s election day here in the United States, which is Kind Of A Big Deal. I don’t want to get too political on a gaming site (though if you search my personal blog carefully, you can discover my political leanings), so instead I’ll divert your attention to something political yet completely nonsensical:
The presidential and vice presidential candidates have officially been released by Maxis as space ship designs for Spore. Apparently some enterprising individual at Maxis figured out that the space ship editor was flexible enough to render human shapes, and from there made the natural leap to re-creating the candidates.
Just don’t make the mistake of choosing John McCain as your space ship; the left blinker gets stuck in the on position on journeys clear across the galaxy.
