 Written on August 13, 2008 Summary: EA kinna kills it It is a fun tool and great toy for anyone who likes computer animation. The creatures created are a lot of fun and finding new ways to use parts and colors is a challenge to keep you busy for quite some time to come. That said, EA kinna kills it. There is as of today in game advertising. This is not mentioned on any box or information sheet. The AT&T advert even makes it difficult to see things in the Sporepedia. It also drops in doubleclick and atdmt scripts and tracking cookies on ya. Or it tries to if you let it. This was done after the product was demonstrated in the trade shows publicly. The game has bugs that have not been addressed since start and the forums are a barely moderated mess. Seems the main plan was to get adverts going less than a month away more than fixing bugs. Enough time to test the adverts but not enough time for most pre-order people to be notified. If folks were warned ahead of time of in game advertising, spyware loaded onto your system via part of the website, and the general lack of EA assistance. I doubt many would have purchased this or pre-ordered Spore. The fact they waited to show it off at trade shows then bait and switch is hard to swallow. There are Customer service issues abound. A number of mistaken bans, banning the person who reported a unsuitable item rather than the offender. Folks with DRM trouble having to wait over a week for a new code, and only after asking for it a few times. No real support with any bugs other than some user discovered workarounds. Generally a mess an a half. Nice program. Shame about any support except unwanted and unwarranted additions.  Written on August 11, 2008 Summary: Buyer Beware! EA can't manage even to produce a decent demo (that they make you pay for!). We bought the full demo to pass the time on a rainy vacation. My kids anxiously watched my try to install it. Emphasis on try. The thing didn't work. I tried 2 different operating systems on computers that met all the required specs. I scoured the net for advice. I followed all the advice and tips I found, changed files in the game, uninstalled the EA download manager... the game still freezes and crashes to desktop. All creatures lost, nothing saves. No way on earth will I buy the full version of this game until I can get some guarantee that it will actually run. I'm very disappointed in EA. Written on July 31, 2008 Summary: Requires Internet access Nowhere on the purchase page does it state that you need internet access on the computer where you intend to install this game. My son doesn't have internet access at his home. At least I know now to cancel the Spore preorder.  Written on July 24, 2008 Summary: A fun and creative interface. It should be noted that this review pertains only to the "creature creator" feature of the Spore game and not the game itself. With that being said the "creature creator" is a lot of fun and its user interface allows one to create as much creatures as their mind can conceive of. Also the interface is extremely easy to use and has many humorous features to it, particularly where it concerns seeing examples of how your creature (s) actually functions if the game was currently live. All in all I highly recommend this product for anyone who wants to get a good understanding of how the game is played or who has a very vivid imagination. Written on July 23, 2008 Summary: Will not buy I was very much looking forward to this game, but when I discovered SecuROM, I decided that I cannot have EA invading my computer. Until media enterprises stop treating customers as enemies, they will see their sales plummet. For every pirate they block, they alienate a dozen legitimate customers. |
