I'm talking about screenshots they released six months before release. You're eager to prove everybody a fanboy, aren't you?

Okay, so, today this girl I know-Lauren, just took a sudden dis-interest in talking to me. Is she just on her period or something?

You mean like this one?

All Spine No ribcages here

They dropped the ribcage design rather early. The ONLY screenshots you can be talking about are from DICE and those were Early design pictures that they themselves said were scrapped.

If I'm on at all tomorrow, I'll link you to what I mean. That is not it.

I know it isn't. But still, your evidence is a bit odd compared to the info I had collected.

Even the creature editor got dumbed down within two or three weeks of release, so I don't see why there's an argument here.

Remember when they were showing us editable ribcages? REMEMBER THAT?

Editable ribcages where did I see that... ohh yes I remember... 2005!

They released a demo of the creature editor. So it being a surprise isn't really an arguement. Not to mention that the changes to the creature editor was revealed many months before those three weeks, the real changes only amounted to layout and a complexity meter.

Ok... I expected a bit of non-research. But I SWEAR people just watched the 2005 video... gone "Well thats it, I am getting that game!" and that was that.

Why don't you be helpful and LINK them to all the correct videos rather than say "Watch the videos, no, GO ON! PLEASE! I SWEAR! I can't be bothered to explain my point!".

The earliest video??? That is one of the 2005 videos. It may say 2006 but that was only when it was uploaded. Notice how much stuff is missing from that video in the current game. The creatures don't have pre-designed movements for their limbs, the bird thing grabbed it's "mouth" when using the call action, your had a nest to defend, there were editors that the current game didn't have, there was intelligent design and physics.

And How does it disprove ragdoll physics? Nothing died.

Keep going. Though I thought that was the one where an attacker died and he made the creature eat it by accident and it got sick and threw up.

Also you would want to read all the articles in Gamespot too. ALL OF THEM!

The fact that you never watched any of these or read any of these articles doesn't surprise me too much. I even had to link to it.

That was the earliest video there, this is you.

Neonivek: keep going
Micro102:whats the title?
Neonivek: keep going!
Micro102: WHATS THE TITLE! I looked at the last one just like you said
Neonivek: KEEP GOING!

They have titles but your aren't giving a name, despite my numerous requests. It's not that I haven't seen these, I just can't see where your proof is.

The problem here is that you didn't keep going. I kept going, and found a video that answered all my questions. After that, I didn't feel the need to keep going any farther.

Yes because it's possible to keep going past the video at the very bottom  ::)

I hope that was sarcasm.

From the bottom to the top.

I am actually avoiding rewatching the videos myself because I am really sick of it all.

In order to link the correct video I'd actually would have to rewatch them all myself for what amounts to 1 second of footage.

Personally just between you and me... Yes...

Nothing can make me look through Spore videos and articles again. Honestly everyone is a freeken zombie of Will and repeat the same things over and over again! best yet They often even make the same mistakes in game demos.

Maybe they're catering to a demographic of gamers who want to be lied to, swindled, and abused. Like a masochistic thing.

It makes them happy.

My favorite part is when Will stood up at the last minute and said "Hey guys, I know the game is coming out in three hours, but it's actually not that great. Don't get too excited".

It wasn't a video, it was a statement released just before it came out on one of the big fansites. It might have been xSpore.
