Spore is HORRIBLY overrated.

My thoughts exactly. I might have posted something like this in two threads already. It's a wasted opportunity in my opinion.

*EDIT: Here's what I wrote about the game:

I thought Spore could have been better. I've only barely started the Space Stage, but as far as I've played, I thought you could decide to live in your city, even get out of your ship, or just always be able to play your creature and travel the lands on different planets and stuff, but it's filled with individual stages that are not that engaging when you think about it.

The really fun ones are the first two stages, but the rest is a bit too much strategy game style in my opinion. Sure, I'll continue the Space Stage because it's where the game really starts, but I wished I could still play with my creature and stuff! o_o
