Spore? I thought it was already out like, a month or so ago for the computer. o__O My friend got it for her computer; it's pretty cool. I like how you can upload videos of your Spore creatures onto YouTube right from the game itself. :3

Got it two days ago, got two races to Space stage, and I'm having fun cruising around the universe terraforming and setting up intergalactic relations with other empires. :)

You can see my creations under the name of "Kalonis" in the online Sporepedia. I'm meaning to change my username if I can. I set it up when I had the Creature Creator and was trying to find a good username. >.>;

Well I was going to buy it but then I read some reviews and asked some friends and they weren't very impressed with it. For one I've been hearing about the security problem people have been having with it and two that it is just to easy to get to the space stage. Though I'm going to buy it anyway and see formyself because I don't trust anyone with reviews these days XD

I'm looking forward to it, but I'm not sure if it will be my thing.
I LOVE The Sims, but I find games like Sim City and Civilizations about as fun as a poke in the eye with a blunt stick. However, reading up on spore I am quite excited about it. I think I'll definately have a go. Not sure what system to get it on though. I'd prefer DS because it can go anywhere, but I think the PC version would be more in-depth. Anyone want to confirm this?
I'll have a nice, pretty signature soon! Now where are my pencils?...

It's only "easy" to get to the space stage if you are on Easy difficulty. Normal is a completely new ballpark, in my opinion. I haven't tried Hard yet, but I am going to once I get my rank up to Onicient on my current game... I'm at Admiral right now... gonna be a while. >.>;

Also, to answer ThunderThylacine's concern, the only part of the game that really plays like Civilization is the stage of the same name and SIm City aspects are very few and not all that big of a deal in space stage.

Here's a run-down... Cell plays like a single player adventure where you swim around, eat, fend off predators, and evolve. Creature plays like an MMO style single player RPG where your creature parts give you stats and you can either befriend a different species and add them to your pack or hunt them down and have them for dinner. Tribal stage is like a simple RTS kind of like Warcraft where you either ally with or fight other tribes. Civilization stage plays almost exactly like the Civilization games. You start a nation and you ally with other nations or go to war with them. The ultimate goal of that stage is to attain total global dominance through whatever means you choose. Finally, space stage is an accumulation of all you have done so far. You can expand your empire by setting up colonies and terraforming planets and set up relations with other empires by, again, either allying and trading with, or going to war with them. You can also be an explorer and search the universe for artifacts and undiscovered systems. The ultimate goal of that path would obviously be finding Earth among the literally thousands of planets in the game.

I am currently exploring and setting up relations with other empires as I go along. I have set up some trade routes with the Shaell Empire and, once I get the money, I plan on buying one of their systems, which is an option if a trade route becomes successful enough. I've found I think around 500 star systems and I still have only found maybe a good 3% of the total universe in the game. It's staggeringly huge...

Okay... I found a problem, now. Anyone know why any creatures that I get past the tribal stage are deleted form the sporepedia? They still exist and I am still working on my main space file and such, but I have three races in the space stage, but all thee of them have had their tribal, civilization, and space stage sporepedia entries removed from the server...
