Don't get yourself worked up over a "possible" C4. This has been discussed, and I feel that the incident of a hyper twelve-year-old declaring that there WILL be a C4 has continued to haunt me throughout the Creatures Community.
To be honest, I don't think one is coming. It would probably be wiser to put some faith in Lifandi to bring us together again, but not too much. I don't want anything like what happened to me to happen to anyone else.
I also think there will not come a C4. My dad says some of the CL programmers left CL to work on Spore.
When they try to sell Spore they will probably not make a competitor for it at the same time...

This is nonsense. I will not again go off on a rant as to why, since last time I started a big flamewar and ended up having to take cover for a while, but this is definitely bunk.
All you have to do is look at the WHOIS info for the domain, is all I'm saying.
New Creatures games, or (forgotten) licences for other companies to produce games, are in the hands of Gameware at the moment, so its not looking hugely likely in the near future
I'll also mention the big Flamewar from before was about the creatures4.com domain; that particular .co.uk domain has always been marked as a 'fan domain' since the day it was registered.
You have to be honest with yourself when you are writing. If that leads to somewhere unexpected then perhaps you really needed to go there.

I visited the Creatures Wiki and I found a new page that had been created for a new Creatures game named Creatures Unleashed that is apparently meant to be released in April 2010 by the new "Company" Ant Workshop. It's probably a fake though.
That has got to be the most dubious looking (and poorly formatted) entry for a game I have ever seen. Apparently whoever made it is serious about making it look believable, because they also edited the Magma Norn article to indicate that the breed is featured in this "Creatures Unleashed".
It looks like Malkin deleted the page a while ago, but it was seriously lacking in a number of ways. It didn't say anything about what the game story might be about, and the few sentences written weren't even capitalized if I'm remembering them correctly.

I can pretty much 99.999% guarantee that there is no 'Creatures Unleashed' (Sims much) or 'Ant Workshop', and that doesn't fit in with anything GW have said. Its just someone mucking around I believe.
