Today, we are pleased to bring you a very special episode of Feedback. No, not like "Tonight, on a very special episode of Blossom." You won't be finding out that Matt Keil has parvo, or that Adam is quitting the show and moving to Guam. Instead, we're happy to have as a guest host on the show, the legendary Will Wright.
From Spore to The Sims to SimCity, and even Raid on Bungeling Bay, Will has been involved in the home video game industry since its fledgling days. He's seen the industry grow from diskettes and ziploc baggies to a multimillion dollar industry, and his presence on the show is especially timely and we are currently attending DICE 2011, where game developers come to learn and be inspired. Follow along on our DICE site for all the latest news.
After developing Spore, Will Wright left longtime home EA and formed his own "think tank" called the Stupid Fun Club, where he works on robots, toys, video games, and even television. His first foray into that medium is a show called Bar Karma, which premieres this Friday on Current TV. It's probably best described in Will's own words, so check out Feedback to find out why you should tune in. But here a teaser: think The Twilight Zone plus Quantum Leap plus Lost.
Feedback: Where that music from the original SimCity still haunts us every day. I know! Those buildings need power and plumbing! Enough, already!
The AUDIO MP3 of this episode of FEEDBACK is available here. Right click to download.

Gotta say that Will Wright is a really creative "outside the box" guy. Interesting show. Kinda funny to see a Yugoslavian note though. I still have a ten Billion Dinar bill that I'm keeping for posterity just because that's alot of zeros on it.

Great show and great conversations.
Looking forward to more episodes like this.

When I first heard the idea, the first thing I thought is there would be actors and directors doing arbitrarily chosen projects they don't really care about and would end up doing sup-par work as a result, but it's good to hear that he's got the creative people filtering the general input.

Good show, missing question of the week but meh. Wish the show was longer like 60 minutes discussions you guys use to have. I just want more feedback and as much of it as I can get every week!!

this sounds just like vertigo comics house of mistery.

Mr. wright is a very creative mind. I would love to see what he is capable of behind a camera. My instincts tell me that the end result would be as interesting as the games he has created if not more satisfactory.

I really REALLY want Chick-Fil-A now for some reason. 0.o??

Its great to see Will Wright is still doing stuff in the gaming industry. When I heard about his new company and the movement away from games and into other mediums I thought we had just lost one of the most influential game making legends. This is definitely reassuring that even the just smallest part of his brain is still working new ideas for games and the industry in general.

to be honest that single topic does not warrant a forty-minute discussion. this is a glorified ad for the show.
And i want my heppe and my klepek and my mcgarvey and everyone else. the show is just getting more and more dull, i'm sorry to say.

Good show, but a question, if the content is user generated would there be any point in watching the show that you wrote....

Wright really comes off as a very bright and interesting cat. Good show, guys, and thanks for arranging the special guest. I'll be hunting down Bar Karma when I get home tonight.

Great to see a audio release of feedback. Audio only Feedback is perfect for my commute. Now all I need is a MP3 RSS feed so can subscribe to it in Google listen.

Great interview of Will Wright...
But it just didn't feel like Feedback.

Great episode as always, but please fix the typo in the description. It's BAR KARMA not BAR KARAM.
