Kotaku hasword, via the latest issue ofGame Informer, that Will Wright’s magnum opus,Spore, has been delayedindefinitely. After a bit of sleuthing, however, it turns out EA has actually pushed the title from fiscal ’08 to fiscal ’09; a sobering alteration, certainly, but not the apocalyptic announcement we were originally handed.

The title – which seeks to provide gamers a way to shape the very evolution of a species, and, in turn, an entire world – has beendelayed a number of times already, and with such a massive scope, we imagine we’re only a few months away from an announcement delaying the game until Jesus Christ comes out in support of Darwinian Evolution.
