Spore

[Dowly]

The space-stage is where the game really starts.

Indeed, its fun as heck, got one creature up to the space stage but it kinda overwhelmed me so I created a herbivore, at civ stage atm.

Btw is it just me or are some parts invisible in the creator? For example the herbivore cell mouth.

Prob not 'invisible' just covered up by other body parts.

Sporpedia is the easiest way to see others creations all you need is a user name.

Tag the users as friends, set the download content to friends only and you can have fun muncing on... errr... making friends with the other players critters.

By the way. Ive played both Herbavore, and Carnivore and found Carnivore to be much easier. Espically when you come up a bunch of other tribes who you cant befriend no matter what.

I'm trying a complete Omnivore/Neutral/Middle thingy game right now, on one hand it's easier because you can both eat and befriend your neighbours, but it's harder to stay in the middle all the time...

Lol, aye, saw that just yesterday! :rotfl:

[Biggles]

Woah, anyone else met any creation that they made in the SPORE Creature Creator? I happened to stumble upon my first creature ever, I called it "Kramer", and this one was HUGE!


Oh, and I still think that the first trailer is the best one:

Fair bit old but yeah. :p

Also: ALL HAIL ThE DOREYAKS

[Falkirion]

Wow William's creation looks like my Apeish.
I've come up with some crazy stuff. I especially like my Flying Pope Mobile. Converted alot of non believers with it when I took over the planet.

Also one of my allies in space stage apparently has a religion based around "The Force" or some variation of.

With SH3, you only had to get past the StarForce hurdle [always related to the type of CD-ROM mfg. you had] to install it and the game works even under Vista, today. Install/Reinstall all you want it ... works. My Vista rig with SH3 - Zero problems - play it off and on - I now prefer SH4 - Wolves of the Pacific.

But now, it seems like our EA buddies let you have three [3] installs .... and that is it! Buy the game again if you want a fourth install/reinstall.

Continuing my attitude to NEVER, EVER buy another EA game, EVER again.

Give Page 2 for a "look-see" - for the detailed info that YOU may want.

Best paragraph is the last one:

"So thanks, EA. Thanks for trying to put a stake in PC games—something I've loved for years and wrote about for over a decade. Thanks for nothing. "

Interesting article.

I found a related information which is probably not new to most of you - but it was to me - that 2k has removed DRM from Bioshock altogether:

http://www.bit-tech.net/news/2008/06...-drm-removed/1

So it turns out I was right with my feeling that all I'd have to do was to wait a year or two until the publisher has written off the game.

And I prefer to buy games a bit later anyway, it's cheaper, I have better hardware, and I get patches and mods.

I predict by next year publishers will try to back out of this, gamers fury is on the rise already and never underestimate that!
