T-Mobile is the US subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom.

Nitpicking: T-Mobile is the international mobile branch of Deutsche Telekom,
not just in the US (though there is a US subsidiary).

Other branches include T-Online (private ISP, actually a former subsidiary),
T-Systems (subsidiary proving services to the public sector and larger
corporations) and T-Home (which I have trouble telling apart from T-Online).
There may be other branches too, but in practice most people in Germany just
lump them all together anyway.

 

SimCity should do a galactic sim to design species - vtempest

After playing SimCity, I think: Why not go galactic? Imagine a version where you are the god-like consciousness of the universe. You input various characteristics of how you want the universe designed and the species that live on various planets. You watch them evolve (like Conway&#x27;s game of life) and eventually they will contact each other and compete for planets. SimStar Wars. It&#x27;s like Starcraft but you get to design the way planets and various species are structured, instead of playing for a side. Would a more Star Trek Borg-like species beat a logical Vulcan species? Ah what a video game that would be, the grandest of them all.

You mean Spore?

yareally
I not sure if the OP is being serious or not after reading his description and
realizing he does not mention spore once. EA is honestly not the company I
would want to make this kind of game though. I played Spore when it came out
and although it had a lot of potential, you could feel it was rushed and
limited to what was envisioned. Combined with the way EA has changed their
business model in recent years, I fear for what a reincarnation would look
like.

If I had to choose a AAA studio/publisher over alternatives, would go with
Firaxis, makers of Civilization. An Indie developer though would be the best
bet to getting a game that isn't made for just casual gamers.

 Nitpicking: T - Mobile is the international mobile branch of Deutsche Telekom,

 Other branches admit T - Online (private ISP, actually a former subsidiary), 
 T - Systems (subordinate proving services to the public sector and bigger

 There may be early branches too, but in practice most people in Germany just

 SimCity should do a galactic sim to design coinage - vtempest 

 After playing SimCity, I think: Why not run low astronomic? Imagine a version where you are the god - like consciousness of the universe. You input various characteristic of how you want the universe designed and the species that live on various planets. You watch them evolve (like Conway&#x27;s game of life) and eventually they will contact each other and compete for planets. SimStar Wars. It&#x27;s like Starcraft but you get to design the manner planets and various coinage are structure, instead of playing for a side. Would a more Star Trek Borg - like coinage beat a coherent Vulcan species? Ah what a video plot that would be, the grandest of them all.
