I've had a little play with the Creature Creator and I've quite enjoyed myself. It's a bit pointless seeing as you can't really do anything with the creatures you make... yet. But this is definitely my kind of game. Can't wait for September!

Yeah got the creature creator myself. lots of fun making up creatures.. also if you upload them they will be used in the initial population of the Spore galaxy when people buy they're game.

I also found out I can get £5 off spore when it comes out if i take my reciept for the creature creator back to the game shop

Hope everyone is well

I'm hoping that because my copy is crashing before it loads (and thus can authenticate online) I should be okay.... maybe...

Who knows....

You'll have to stop breaking your PC's aswell, as certain hardware changes count as new installs apparently.

[[*TEF*]42]

well i'm nearly up to the last badge on the space stage..

TIP : if you want to stop having to look after your planets.. get the uber protection turret .. one per planet.. after getting civ 4 or warmonger 3 they are unlocked.. i shopped around and found them for 350k instead of 750k (homeworld)

Am looking forward to facing the Grox now (already whooped their ass once)

[Fluffy Kitten]

Yeah, but you still get attacked, and stuff still gets broken.
When I unlocked the uber turret I tried to spam them all over the place, thinking I was finally free of the retarded part of the space stage, only to be told "no you're only allowed 1 per planet for no reason, lol" and then watch them slowly oh-so-very-slowly take out enemy invasions while they bombed my cities.

Someone on the design team needs to be shot.

I was bored untill I reached the spage stage, after that, I removed the game. Good thing I did a try before buy (which was never going to happen due to the protection and 3 installs only)

In future be skeptical of a good idea with a game built around it. We've seen it before in B&W where the pet training was interesting, but the RTS game that demanded your attention in order to build a context for your pet was absolutely horrifically boring. I can't help but think that Spore has a similar problem. Everyone seems to love a couple of aspects of the game but have major issues with the rest of it. Still, at least the game is doing well in terms of sales, PC gaming needs a few non-subscription hits a few times a year to survive.
