  • The creative license provided by Spore is second to none. The in-game animations, cinematics and physics are absolutely awesome. The Space phase is an incredible achievement.
  • First four stages are average at best, bland at worst. Bafflingly, theres no auto-save option. RTS segments of the game have control problems that scream amateur hour.

  • Abstract:  Check it out, guys! It’s that new game by Will Wright, the guy who made The Sims! So it’s got to be totally amazing, right? Because The Sims sold like six billion copies, and spawned an unholy amount of add-ons and spin-offs, such was its universal app...
