Spore

pretty fun game. Geared more towards kids I think.

Just came out today so I'm still trying it out.

This is the creature I created so far.

I saw it on the store shelf and was wondering what the heck it was.

It's pretty fun. Lots of good videos on youtube if you search for "spore trailer".

It's the latest game by the creator of the Sims and Sim City.

You start out as like a little amoeba in the water and you have to evolve into a land creature. Then you evolve into a civilization, etc. Eventually you conquer the planet, and then you start conquering other planets.

It's pretty fun, but the real fun is creating creatures. As you eat/kill other ones, you evolve and get new features that make you better. I only played it about 30 min, but it was fun.

Now I think I have to go buy it. Darn you.

I bought it yesterday and wasted a good portion of my day on it.

Its a fun game, kind of repetitive, but still enjoyable. It is fairly cartoony, but most Maxis/EA games are.

Its cool that when you create something it gets stored online in a catelog. That way if you dont feel like designing a city hall, you can just pick one that someone else made.

that looks pretty cool. i always loved those sorts of games.

Well, I got my copy at the store today and I'm happily surprised. I just die too much and can't make up my mind.

It's nice to play a fun leisure game like this every now and than and not worry about things you see in FPS games.
