On an unrelated note.

Any one seen the Zero punctuation review?

What he thinks if you don't feel like watching the video.

We were shown pictures of people prancing about on the surface of the moon. What we got was a ride on the Vomit Comet. Disappointing for those who wanted a lunar vacation, but I'm still having loads of fun enjoying what I've got. Glass is half full, in my opinion, and despite the hype I don't really expect full glasses from the games industry anymore. Complaining about the suck isn't going to give us better games.

 Interesting.

 People are saying Spore will be the most pirated game in history. Mostly because of the anti-piracy additions to it.

 Oh irony... I hope EA gets it instead of "We need to make things MOAR secure!" You cannot distribute something and expect it to be safe from piracy, no matter what you do short of up to and including monitoring each product every second. The best you can do is make no reason to get the pirated version.
Fixed your post.

What's the point of even posting a comment like this?


Anyways, I'm still having tons of fun with Spore.   Looking forward to further patches.

I personally think that only the creature stage is horrible. Everything else I had fun with...

Space > Tide Pool > Civilization > Tribal > Creature.

Well my oppinion on the phases are as follows

Cell: Compared that this is a pretty fun phase it ends far too early and you never feel like your Cell gets particularly powerful with the low amount of DNA they give you. We can somewhat forgive them compared that this is supposed to be the tutorial phase... however there is just a lot they could have done... It feels like it ends right after it gets good especially since right before it gets good the cells start to get interesting (Mother Cells for example start to appear)

Creature: Being Social during this phase is totally stupid in everyway possible and they successfully make it not fun to do... Offensive is kinda... walk around and kill things... and a mix doesn't help. Probably the worst phase.
-Creature is my favorite editor however.

Tribal: There is so much you should have been able to do... while it is fun it is rather weak. This section isn't just shallow, it is lacking.

Civilisation: I actually like this phase quite a bit though there are so many problems with this phase... It is too late for a full review of this phase but lets sum it up as... Shallow and quickly becomes too easy even on Hard.

Space: This is my favorite phase and obviously the one they paid the most attention to. A lot of the worst parts of this phase disapear once you get far enough (such as really annoying Teraforming)

Creature, Tribal, Cell, Civilisation, Space In order of worst to Favorite!

Surely either is equally true.

Yeah this is pretty much clear indeed. The problem is that the whole game is like a series of dumbed down mini games linked together...not to mention that even the Space stage is repetitive after a period plus the space stage itself is a dumbed down strategy/adventure minigame also.

Can we talk about something that doesn't involve my bad use of the <, >, and = symbols?
