a quick google of 'spore 360' turned up other sites that thought it was
including http://www.xbox360ne...s/blr_4361.aspx
I am sure there is a brief shot of it being played on a 360 at the very end of one of the X06 compilation trailers. It is the very last shot as it is fading out.

GS: What are your general thoughts on next-generation game consoles and handhelds?
WW: We were kind of assuming that the next-gen consoles would all be superpowerful, but now we're looking at how expensive the Sony [PlayStation 3] is, trying to leverage the value of Blu-ray; we look at how cheap the Nintendo Wii is going to be and its innovative controller; we're looking at Microsoft's early mover advantage and its focus on network games. We're actually seeing the manufacturers going off in their own directions, which is interesting. And at the same time, we're seeing that handhelds are very different from each other; they appeal to very different groups with very different styles of gameplay. So, I think we're seeing a kind of explosion of gaming, where games are going out to all these different platforms, with all these different styles, and we're starting to see lighter, more-innovative, more-casual games on some of these lower-end platforms.
GS: Do you see a home for Spore on any of the new consoles or handhelds in the near future, or is it too early to say? What can you confirm for us at this time?
WW: We're certainly looking at [Spore] as a franchise. The PC [version of the game], for me, is the tip of the iceberg. You can imagine Spore in a lot of different variants, because we have all these different types of gameplay. We can pull out individual levels; we can use the editors in totally different ways; and so on. I can easily imagine Spore on any conceivable platform, and that's something that we've definitely been looking into. We're not announcing anything yet, but it's pretty obvious that I want Spore to take over the world (laughs).
GS: Then what we can confirm is that Spore is a game with the potential to expand somewhere else, but right now, it's only for the PC.
WW: Yeah, but my ambition is for it to become a major franchise. You can take that for what it's worth.
