Spore Reviews!

Archive: 51 posts


Alright, found out my comp is too old and rubbish to play Spore for myself, so I'm gonna rely on the loyal members of LBP to englighten me with their Spore stories

Hopefully they'll release some new info as to the Next Gen Console versions of the game, but until they're out/ Something's done about my computer, it's up to you!

Going by the Spore Forums, the space game isn't so good, due to too many eco disasters and pirates, which is a bug I think ;/2008-09-05 17:22:00

From what I've been reading - That'll take you AGES lol. Might I suggest playing on easy? Apparently the space stage on Normal and Hard is insanely hard, and **** near impossible on some parts.

I just purchased the game. Not all that impressed at the moment, but this will take some time to get into so i have by no means given up on it already. I can't wait to travel into space!2008-09-05 20:22:00

Hmmm, the IGN video review said it's a pretty easy game. I think i'll be okay. I'll do it on normal, i never like doing my first runthroughs on anything other than the normal.

I'll prob get it on mondya now.

They stole our tagline grr...when you fire up the game, the menu options are "play", "create", and "share". I'll get a screengrab up in a minute.

Was this news I missed?

I think it's pretty boring so far. Lots of tasks you would do in an MMO, but without other players around. Would be nice if you could do co-op, or if they had made the game an MMO.

It's still early, but i'm kinda glad I didn't invest too much hype into this game from the start.

I've had the game for about a week now, (finally Australia gets something first!) and surprisingly I'm finding the game quite difficult... I suppose I have never been one for RTS games, (which explains my failing at tribe and civilization) but even the space age is rather difficult and tedious... Only played space for an hour or so but everything looks exceedingly complicated and from what I've seen the final frontier in the game seems to be ridiculously massive and will probably take a very long time to get anywhere.

Despite this I have rather enjoyed SPORE and I definitely would not say I was disappointed. (Although to be honest I was never extremely excited and hyped up for it)

I was really hyped for it at one point, but not as much now. I just hope it'll be a good bit of fun till LBP.2008-09-06 13:19:00

I'm reading that now.
Did not like that book. Granted, it's probably because I had a Commie teacher, but whatever.

Anyway - I can't really say I enjoy it. It's a wholly average game.

Can't wait to hear what you guys think. I may end up getting it tomorrow, and if people would still want me to i could write up a detailed review in a few days. Only if requested though, i don't want it to be pointless.
And my opinion on it won't be very biased. I'm neither excited or unexcited for the game. Just want a nice game to fill the gap between now and LBP.

I've heard the very best thing to do is take your time and enjoy it. Don't rush to get to the next stage - or it's just not fun.2008-09-08 21:55:00

Well isn't this with anything you do, don't just rush to the end but make sure to take it nice and slow to enjoy ever minute.

kinda true. But things like Call Of Duty 4 (campaign) if you rush it you can tend to even do better
Plus, definatly when going for the Big Boss emblem in MGS4 (which i have )

Not really (seriously). Just save in each area. Repeat it until you perfect it and your happy, and save and repeat in the next area. The hardest part of the game is the bike chase with Big Mama. Only using tranq guns on extreme with no rations is SO hard. The Solar Gun is handy here.

Keeping on topic, i won't get spore till tomorrow or friday (im away wed/thurs, but if it comes tomorrow i can play it those days). As i said, if people wanted a detailed opinion i'll write a review next week.
