Just a quick FYI you can buy the game for the Wii too!

After playing around with the PC version a bit it's very safe to say whatever comes to the Wii will be a simplified version. There's no way all this will make it to the Wii.

When I upgrade my mac to snow leopard I'll buy spore. That will be the first game I buy for it.

Already bought. The more I actually see of it the more I realized that LBP should not even begin to compete with this level of pure awesome.

twesterm, you know, don´t you? that the majority of the pirates wouldn´t buy the games if they were to buy the official ones? I live in Brazil, a third world country and I see thi s kind of things everyday. Most of the middle class youngsters have a ps2 and they are on their way to get a new gen consol, but you know how many official games they have ? Very few. The ps2 success in Brazil was due to the easyness to pirate it and the main reason why ps3 will never succeed in here. The games are launched at US$130 here and most of the owners would never buy many games if they didn´t have an option. The wii and x360 can be copied and will make success down here. The pc games are three times cheaper than in the stores. Sometimes they don´t reach the stores, so we are forced to get them pirate or from abroad(like I do). So that story that pirates hurt their sales is BS. The US, EU and Japan(the big markets) are able too enforce the law, and also have a financial status that don´t make games so proibitive. This DRM thing is an agression to the consumer and people should boycot them until they give in.

 

I'm not getting into this argument again so don't even try.  I'll just give you the short answer and I'm just not going to reply after that: that is merely one of the many justifications lies people tell themselves.  The fact they download it shows they want it.

The fact they download it does prove that they want it but it doesn't prove that they are willing to pay for it.

So i got spore now for two days. it's great when a lot more people are playing.
So I was busy developing in the creature stage ( for 3 hours now)
when suddenly I hear impacts I look around me all the animals in panic . Was there an astroid strike so I thought wow thats a nice effect Not thinking about it could be someone attacking my planet. So I get further and at some point I hear space sounds look to the sky and suddenly I see a fleet of space ships dropping all those hostile creatures that I are 10 times stronger and bigger then me. ( yes Will you could have atleast make sure some people can't be attacked during build fase)
that's the only negative point I got the rest is simply insanely good.
Oh yeah if you don't apply eyes your creature wont know where to walk to lol.

 

But what I wonder now . Does this mean that if people can invade you they can also destroy your planet?

The wait killed it for me. Four years ago I was freakan ecstatic. I saw every video, every review, every interview, EVERYTHING!!
Then two years passed, then three. Creature creator came out and I played it and thought "Cool... but I feel like I did this 3 years ago." It wasn't new, it wasn't fun. Now Spore is coming out and I don't think I can afford the time I need to play it and I feel like I already played through it twice years ago due to all the hype and videos I have seen for the past 36 months or so.

I knew that the game lacked depth it were too ambitious. It is around 88% in gamerankings now.

Similar story happened to me, but I found that extremely badass and awesome. Every game something new happens!
