DEAR WILL WRIGHT, May I call you Will? Will, I bet you feel like expectations for Spore passed the unreasonable stage about a year ago—around the time you appeared on The Colbert Report, actually. And I’ll admit that probably no one outside your development team has had higher expectations for it than I have, except possibly your blood relatives and the guy who counts the money at EA. ...

The Spore Creature Creator will launch on June 17, giving gamers a tiny taste of the massive game for the paltry price of $9.99 (9.99 Euros in Europe). Buying the Creature Creator separate from Spore has a couple of perks - you get a head-start on uploading your creatures to the Spore community site, the chance to make your own creature movies for YouTube and a $5 rebate on the full game from Amazon and Target retailers - but more ...   » Read Full Spore preview

Interspecies relations break down
Apr 7, 2008
At each of Spore’s five stages, from the microbiotic to the intergalactic, there is an eternal choice: kill or... don’t. When you start, as a microbe with teeth, it’s kill or be vegetarian. When you evolve enough to crawl from the primordial soup to dry land, it’s kill or sing little songs to befriend things. Once your species forms a society and decides what buildings to have in its first village, it’s kill or ...   » Read Full Spore preview

Spore offers more than you can see in a lifetime
Feb 13, 2008
It’s been almost three years since Spore was first announced in 2005 at the Game Developer’s Conference. Since then, fans and critics have been gushing over every detail and lamenting over every delay. It’s no wonder why there’s so much hype about the latest title from Will Wright, designer of other infamous time suckers like The Sims and SimCity. Everything revealed about Spore so far reads like a bullet pointed list ...   » Read Full Spore preview
Spore
A new creation myth
Jan 15, 2008
Jan 15, 2008 Playing with Spores electronic clay nearly a year ago, we were struck by just how complete the character creation tools were. Spores remit, to take a species from microbe to UFO, may be massive but back then it felt ready, and real. Stretching out flesh, bolting on limbs, arranging faces - it all worked. Then, nothing. The game went back into development. New hires (Soren Johnson, the lead designer of Civilization 4 was the last high-profile addition), and no news pointed to a ...   » Read Full Spore preview

So, everyone has been complaining about the DRM. My question is: Will it prevent me from buying a used Spore game on Amazon?
