Actually, your solution with arrays is the most often occured solution an imperative programmer will come with. It is simple but not scalable and not particularly fast.

What gave you that impression?

If I may butt in here: to get a scalable, fast Game of Life, you should look into Hashlife (by Gosper?) as exemplified in the open source application Golly. It gives an astonishing speedup, and it would be interesting to see it expressed in Haskell.
