So... Spore... Out now.

[Red Dragon]

I was super-hyped when this was first announced like 7 or so years ago.

Now I am not.

Maybe it's because I am picking up Mercs 2 a few days before.

Thoughts? Theroies? Tacos?

I've seen from different places that it's been leaked onto some private torrent trackers.
Good luck to them playing it without a CD Key

It got a 91 on PC gamer.

Unless some new torrent was uploaded in the past 8 hours that I don't know about, all of them contain 4gigs of trojans and malware.

I'm serious.

Anyways, I played this game at PAX and it probably would have been THE NEXT BIG THING if it didn't take 4 years to make and EA didn't ruin the thing. It's a fun game marred by really dumb and watered down combat mechanics and while the "share your universe" theme is really neat it's just not for people like me (i.e. solo gamers).

Also EA and their constant monitoring.

EA ruins everything.

Mercs 2, shoot a civilian in the head, get 5k cash reduced, civilian gets up and runs away.

What the 'ell?

there's a demo of the DS game up on the nintendo channel.

I have ignored it.

The DS game looks pretty crappy.

I'd be buying Spore if I had something to play it on.

DS, PC, or Wii?

Re: So... Spore out in a few days.

No Wii, maybe I'll have one by the time the Wii version is released.. I have a DS but I'm not interested in Spore: Creatures. I have a PC but not one that can play Spore.

Re: So... Spore out in a few days.

the DS version, from what I understand, is pokemon, except you get only one pokemon, and you can fiddle with the way he looks.

Hey, I have a PC and a Wii. I'm pretty sure I'll get the PC version, but is there any reason I should pick up the Wii version instead?

Only if you think your PC can't handle it, or you are afraid of SecureROM.
