Been playing Spore.

It's all right I guess.

After all the hype I do feel a bit disappointed though. It's a good game that brings a lot of new innovation to the table and it is a lot of fun at first.

But after playing all the way from the "spore" stage to the city age some of the simplicities do become apparent.

There are so many different game modes and so much to cram in it was always going to be a massive feat to make everything great.

My problem with the city age for instance is that it is like an extremely simplified Civilization type game.

There is very little room for real strategy there and it doesn't match up to games that are already on the market for that particular niche.

Of course Spore has much more to it and it is a good to great game in places. I would just hold off on calling it a classic right now.

Still, Space Age is next so we will see..
 
And how do you rate the Disneyfication. Is it bearable or do you wish they'd kept all the gore and sex that it originally had?
 
It is a little cartoony and the original builds looked better but it isn't as distracting as I first thought.

The graphic style fits the game quite well. And some of the more Disneyfied elements were taken out like food turning into cute plates of meat and so forth.
 
Been more interested playing Mass Effect. Will be interesting to see the reviews.
 
I should steal some games.
 
Remember when they were saying that piracy would DESTROY THE FILM INDUSTRY AND STEVEN SPIELBERG WOULD BE LIVING IN A CARDBOARD BOX!

Seems that hasn't really happened since Hollywood makes more now than it EVER has done.

LOL RIAA.
