The Creator Creator will allow gamers to get a head start in crafting the unique alien species for use in the title, which is currently slated for a September release. The trial will be functionally identical to the creator found in the full game.

Should be creature creator.
Can someone post a video of Robin Williams messing around with it (from E3 a couple of years ago).

And let's me honest, how many people are going to spend more time creating awesome creatures than actually playing the game? I know I will, so this tool is like half the game!
The beginning is practically fl0w/Geometry Wars.
Then comes some sort of Black & White "raise your pet" styled game.
Thirdly, SImcity 4000BC-4000AD with the ability to create your own style of buildings (probably the neatest part in the game for me)
Last, a 4X style with no real ending, from what little we've seen in the videos.
Each of these by themselves wouldn't be much to talk about, and the total package will no doubt get rave reviews.. I just can't see it appealing to players past the first month or two.
