Players will begin at the outer edges of a galaxy containing 18,446,744,073,709,551,616 unique planets. By comparison, the game space of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas appears to be about fourteen square miles.

Actually, the galaxy-sized video game is called "The Internet" xD

Now seriously, No Man’s Sky really impressed me when showed on the last E3, lets hope it live to the expectations. Is the PC version confirmed?

I mean, will it REALLY be this big? After all, Skyrim claimed to have 'unlimited' quests.

I'm sure this will be just as groundbreaking as the first time it came out and was called Spore.
