' Wrote:Yup that game is lame.
Just take a look at all the gamer's magazines.
i took your suggestion and everything i've found so far give it an "Great", 4.5 out of 5 stars, 8.0 out of 10, 8.5 out of 10, a 9.5 out of 10, and a B+
doesn't coincide with being lame. granted we all have different taste in games and while it doesn't compare well with Gears of War 2 it would seem to be fairly good from the review of others.
i haven't bought it yet, but i've been looking forward to this game for like 2 years or something crazy like that.
my hopes are very high that it doesn't sux. anyone else played it?

Apparantly each stage can be quite shallow but put together, a very very good game. Hence why I just ordered it:P

I was going to order it. I've been looking forward to getting it, absolutely going berserk with 6 MORE DAYS!! 4 MORE DAYS!! etc etc.
Then I found out that it has DRM encrypted into it.
You only get 3 installations. Any hardware change (like a new graphics card, or HD) or reinstalling an OS, takes one installation.
You can contact EA for more installations after they have expired, and they will review it on a case by case basis.
So, I wont be buying it, unless they remove the DRM.
I'll not be pirating either as I like legit software.
If anyone can let me know what is like after 3 installs I might buy it, but for now it's a no. Sadly.:(see look. Im sad.:(:(:(

Check the costumer uproar at the Amazon page about the game being DRM infected.

EDIT: And a whole new bunch of flaming on the DRM scheme (I hadn't read the comments when I posted the link).:D

SPORE is fun the first few times you play it. After that it gets very repetitive very quickly ...
