Being able to say this out loud is a big step. +1 emotional maturity. +1 admitting he's got a problem.

I'll not deny that he has passion, but someone really should have reigned him in. It only hurt the game when it inevitably never delivered. Who comes up with game features on the spot to the media? No respect for the people who actually have to make the game, sheesh.

The last time someone reigned him in, we got Spore.

Peter Molyneux didn't work on Spore, that was Will Wright.

Frankly, I'm offended by the comparison on Will Wright's behalf.

Maxis, not Lionhead.

Molyneux released Black and White at around that time.
