So when the hell is SPORE going to be released?

Recently read some news regarding their plan of releasing it on Mac the same time it comes out on PC. When the hell is this going to come out? Heard rumors of a March/April release but I don't really trust those and I haven't been following the game THAT much.

Anyone have any ideas?

Oh and this video is great:

That's actually a very accurate prediction.

EA just recently (maybe 2 weeks ago) put it the project on suspension

(I suppose to focus on adding more accurate eye gloss effects on Madden 2009)

What a damn shame. This looked like it would be the next big thing. I hope they dont abandon this project altogether.

Which it's looking like will be about a quarter past never. So yeah, nice pipe dream, never going to see the light of day.

I got that from Somethingawful (which was, in turn, linked to a news article), but seeing as my account was part of a mass account hack, i can't search. :/ It had something to do with a slump in Electronic Arts market performance.

well anyways, Sept 7, 2008 now.

I would put $100 on it not making it's ship date. I might even put that much cash on it not being released this year, and maybe even at all.

haha, of course it will. but slippages are hardly anything new in gaming.

and yes, i saw the new date. fingers crossed!

I have been waiting for this game for roughly about 2 years or so. I hope this game would really be very good because this game always gets cancelled and moved.

Still on track for 9/7! Lots of new hype this week with early playable previews being released! Can't wait.

Dunno, but I'm playing Lego Indiana Jones On Wii atm, and its pretty fun...especially when u can beat the shit out of your friend who accompanies u around and helps u out with the puzzles.

I've been meaning to check that out, since I loved all the Lego SWs. How is it comparatively? (If you've played the others)

Gameplay is slightly better...graphics I would say slightly better. Only gripe is the respawning of enemies until u complete the task/puzzle at hand to move on. I hate respawns like that, but its not too damaging to the fun. Its worth it, especially if u like the others.

sep. 7, it is. apparently, you have to pay for the creature creator seperately. wtf is that nonsense and who would be moronic enough to pre-order spore?

Posted by iammesol on Jun-14-2008 02:22:

Why does it say WIN/MAC on the box of the creature creator, but I can only order it on PC?

edit: Sick! It's on the same DVD
