Thank you for saving me from exploring this game. A digital junky friend of mine tried to lure me in but I held off, assuming this would be on your radar. Great review!
Spore???? What if that show Paranormal State were actually made by a bunch of pussies??? http://tinyurl.com/5eqbxl
I thought some of Spore was alright. The 1st and 2nd stages were cool but the tribal stage was awful. Civi stage was ok but space stage was a gigantic pile of poo.
Another reason I kind of liked it is my friend gave me a cracked version >

No, is defiantly the right answer. I remember being able to play endless runs of Sim City, trying to accomplish everything to a greater degree of difficulty, or to complete unique challenges. I am a challenges kind of player.
This game does not provide a challenge. I looked but it isn?t there. It?s possible my vast gaming experience has led me to be a perfect Spore player but I doubt it.
This game is at the most a one-time fling with a small bit of originality but after you get to the space age it has out-lived its usefulness.

Hello hello,
I must say I laughed so hard through out this, because as I was playing it I noticed the same thing. Although I never thought of the horrific mid-air collision. Also as for "making a monster shaped like a cock" it would seem some people took that to heart. That or the human race is perverted. Look up " Perverted Spore Creatures " on you tube. Some of them are so hilarious my sides hurt just thinking about them. And for the record. I broke the game disc in fury, and have been trying to get my money back for "false advertising". I have played little flash games that had more complexity than this entire game. They could have spent less money and just made computerized Kaliedoscope and you would still get the same damn results, pretty images, but little else worth anything.

I'm not sure, but it's similar to a line from the novel Sphere. I'm not sure if that reference makes any sense here.SYSTEM-J said:
Wow, what a random necro.
Oh well, I get to tell Yahtzee he did a good job, I missed out the first time around.
Good job, Yahtzee.

Good job, Yahtzee.
the only real problum i see with this review is that Yahtzee failed to relize that many spore players tend to recreate just about everything in spore and chances are that somewhere outthere is a spore planet populated a bunch of guys who look like batman
now ifd you exuse me I am off to to make one inhabited by imps

You don't give spore enough credit. I'll agree it wasn't what it seemed it was going to be, and space exploration is fairly disappointing once you realize "I guess this is it" and although there was the promise of finding earth out there somewhere, I've almost begun to believe that was a joke meant to tell you to go back outside because you'd finished the game.
You expect too much from every game, and I'll admit I really only watch these videos because it's good fun to hear you tear them a new ass but there are these rare occasions where I think you simply missed the point.
The environments are lush, and expansive when you're a wee creature. The game play is dynamic and fun. When you're a creature yes it's difficult to be a cuddly wuddly but I had no problems at all mixing in a little non-violence in the tribal stage and coming out as a neutral.
"The Sims" on the other hand is a boring work-a-day waste of time with no end reward of any kind. It's more satisfying to watch someone piss themselves because you've sold the toilet for beer money than it is to, wait, whats the "end" of a sims game? Getting sick of playing it?
