Those of you waiting for Will Wright’s latest masterpiece will be sad to hear that the game has been postponed indefinitely. If you prefer to know when it was delayed to, according to Electronic Arts: “Spore has slipped out of fiscal 08 and into fiscal 09″. In other words, they have no intentions of releasing it anytime soon.

Given the number of demonstrations we’ve seen in the past few months, I find it very surprising that the game is being delayed for so long. My guess is that EA is either shifting their efforts to another, more profitable title, like the Sims, or like Brian Crecente guesses, they could be holding out for a dual launch on both PC and some consoles to maximize profit.

Sorry Battlefish, you won’t be playing on our computers anytime soon.
