SPORE SPORE SPORE!. This game is like freaking AMAZING!
i'm having so much fun.
firstly you start at Cell stage...and i was actually scaried...but the graphis are so brilliant! and then once you produce a brain you can then go onto Creature stage....so amazing...its really a good way of understanding evolution..its so cool! Anyway...depending on what you done at each stage decides what sort of creature you are on the other stages...once you;ve completed creature stage by either making friends enemies, ruling the world..you then go to tribal stage where you live and rule all the tribes...once you;ve done that you go onto civilisation stage where other civilations of your creature become your enemies or friends and once you have ruled the world by converting, battling etc you go to SPACE STAGE. which is AMAZING GOOD. graphics again are great and your within the galaxy...yay!
you basically makes friends or you attack star system whilst trying to help your allies star system and build your economy by selling spice, completing missons and so forth...i've actually gone to the centre of the galaxy...and i beleive the object is to get as far in the galaxy as possibly...whilst battling and making friends....
IT REALLY GOOD FUN!
I've feel like i've achieved so much with my creatures...(who i named after my sister. hehe)and you can be really creative and make any creature you want...making them look cute, or tough...and there is SO much to explore.
so buy it and try it :D

Balls. DRM or not, this game is boring. Boring at the start, moving on slightly to annoying. Well, at least there's a bit of variation!
It has all been said before - annoying DRM, gameplay too basic. Honestly, this game should've been marketed as a kid's game. As it was not, we'll assume EA/Will Wright prefer to insult their customers' intelligence.

Waste of money. I was really disappointed with this game. The game-play is very repetitive and whilst the creature creation mechanics are fun for a while, you quickly realise that the design of your creature has little impact on your species' success or failure.
It's nothing like the innovative game I thought it would be.
Worst of all, having played it through and decided I won't be playing it again, I can't sell it second hand because of EA's restrictive DRM. So all in all a complete and utter waste of money which has left me vowing never to buy another game with DRM.

SPORE - Please give me more!. One of the most hyped up games of the year has now been released, and I have finally resurfaced to tell you about it. Made by the creator of the SIMS, SPORE was never going to be a disappointment. There are some pretty obvious similarities, like the graphics, SPORE has the same simple futuristic 3D animations and idiot proof options tabs, and just like the SIMS I did feel a bit like God on a power trip. But this is where the similarities end, SIMS fans be warned. You are now in control of evolution. Life for you starts out as a single Spore in a tide pool; you must fight your way through life, evolving and reproducing until you can walk on land and create a future for your species in space. Travel through six evolutionary phases by making friends and killing your enemies, whilst all the time moulding your creatures for their survival. As exciting as this sounds, at times the game does become a little tedious and almost too easy; this may have been because I played it on `easy', but still, it is a shadow of what it could have been. Despite these flaws I did admittedly become quite addicted, and found letting my peculiar and ugly featured aliens go, extremely hard. Overall I would say it is definitely worth a bit of your gaming time, but do not expect the epic adventure we were all led to believe SPORE would be.

RUBBISH!!!. My friends convinced me to get this game. I thought that the demo creature creator was fun so i got it. But it was absolutely rubbish. On my pc it froze at tribal stage, so i installed it on my mac. In creature creator was black i couldn't see anything so i had to make something on my pc and then load it onto my mac. Really annoying. Then it really wasn't fun at all. Just annoying. Sireously do NOT but this game no matter what anyone says it RUBBISH!!!!
