Everywhere i look, gamers seem to be hating spore? What's going on, it looked so promising throughout development, and SCC is wicked fun...im scared now, if spore is bad, what is there to look forward to playing for this month. Mercenaries 2 was buggier than an ant nest,  and Spore is set to be a flop. Of all the months to be a PC gamer...

yeah, but i can't online DM forever, sometimes i want some single player action, and its severely lacking as i close in in the end of DMC4...

No I am telling you straight. SPORE IS AWESOME!!!!! Seriously I love it!!!! Gamers always say they hate it because they want more. They never look at what is already there and appreciate it. Like GTA4, I loved that game and still do but some people say it is terrible.....they will love spore eventually. People say the don't like Fable 1 but some say they love it, and when Gears of War first came out people didn't like it either....

But I think spore is epic....

hows the security on it...is the DRM as bad as was feared?

You have to go online to register which means that if you want to go online then you have to buy the actual game...

yeah...reauthentication every time i apply a patch...i don't want to talk to EA that much

Still, it does look tempting...but...im torn

The good thing is that if a friend of yours has got the game you can install their version on your computer and you can play. Which mean you get it for free!! That's what I'm gonna try and do right now...
