"Unexpected emergent results." In fact, in mentioning the experiments of Benjamin Libet (that our unconscious brain appears to prepare to act before our conscious brain chooses to act), Humble postulates that Sims may in fact have more free will than we do. Humble goes on to argue that in The Sims 3 they've created an artificial free will - an unpredictable pattern of behaviours that play out according to myriad circumstances. And what I love about the Greek gods is they're not smarter than us, and they're not wiser, and they're certainly not more emotionally balanced they're just more powerful." "Did we have any choice in being here today? Or was it pre-determined since the beginning of the universe that all of us would be here today, in this theatre, thinking these exact same thoughts? In short, do we have any free will at all? In the Western tradition, Greek myth and literature examines this subject to great depth. Rather than jogging out, pumped, and working up the crowd, he shuffles out, stands still, head bowed, and scratches his hair. Because as far as we're concerned, this was a glorious moment of sunshine amongst the usual pomp and explosions of a gaming press junket. The corporate reason for this was the announcement that The Sims 3 is to come out on consoles this Autumn - not something we need to concern ourselves with, unless the changes and improvements of the console version are not also updated into the PC version. Rod Humble, the man in charge of the Sims, came out and began to lecture on free will. During EA's E3 press conference last night there was one moment that was by far the most extraordinary of the evening.
