Microsoft did something similar to promote the .NET framework in it's early days. They launched the Terrarium competition http://terrarium2.codeplex.com/ http://terrarium2.codeplex.com/ where you would code your creature's AI in C# or Managed C++ and ship it as a DLL that would compete against other peoples creatures.
