Spore

I have never believed the Anti EA hype until today. I can't even log on thier site to check my order. I could right now go down the street and buy a copy instead of waiting for them to allow us to download it. But I'm not paying $20 for the Demo, $10 is too much.

They couldn't even release the Demo on time how the hell are they going to release the game?

I'd bet $100 on that Spore will NOT be released on Sept 7th in NA, which is a Sunday BTW and I never heard of a game being released on a Sunday.

I'm betting the 10th. but the way EA is going 2009 might be a better bet.

/my first ever EA rant

well they will. 3 Months is still a bit of time

It will be released on time. The copies of the CC all shipped to the retail outlets on time, it is just the download service that is slacking. So when spore comes out, just go buy it.

Spore will be in the shops on the day of the release... the game is nearly finished so shipping won't be a problem

i KNOW! what is up with Spore and delays? i've never seen any other game have so many delays in history! it was supposed to originally released in 06

ah but official means official even though if it happened i wouldn't be surprised, the CC was delayed and that was official too

i bet their manager must be on their case about the delays though =P

Will you give me the $100 dollars? I want paypal. I'll give you my Paypal deposit area when Spore comes out on time.

The game is FINISHED, they announced the release date in February because it was done by then. As other had said, it wasn't the actual copies but the downloading service. They do give you the option of downloading the game which I hope no one does

Sir, take your emo faggotry somewhere else and stop bitching.

Thank you

Not?
The Demo Arrived!

I hate to burst your bubbles, but they made the demo and the Complete CC downloadable on the 17th of June.

The fact that a certain site, where you preordered it, (even if it is their site), didn't have it in time, is your private failure.

What? This was just two years! Totally usual.

Prey was released after 10 years of delays, STALKER after 4 years, Team Fortress 2 after 9 years, etc.

I think the reason there was so many delays was because they knew it would take this long, and they didn't want to say 'It's out September 7th, 2008' when they first told everyone about the game, because then they would lose interest. This way they can keep attention. These delays are so incredible ridiculous (three YEARS!) that they have to be on purpose.

Funny thing, SPORE WAS NEVER DELAYED!

There was only ONE OFFICIAL RELEASE DATE!

Everything prior to that were mere estimated dates made by ONE person in ONE department of either EA or Maxis (eg. WW saying: "Probably Christmas 2007")

Get over it, there was only one Official Release Date, don't like EA? Fine, don't buy the damn game and GTFO! (< Original Poster)

And Will Wright once talked about it, it took so long, because they always found new features that should be added.
Like the baby creatures, the music editor, the clothing editor, the economic and religius civ.s, the new planet types, etc.

Originally, Sporepedia itself wasn't planned, the creations were supposed to be randomly pollinated, totally hidden from the players. But suddenly they decided to make a browser-like interface to choose your own creations, Sporecasts, etc. Probably this single feature took months to be implemented.

Another thing, what currency will this be in?

I say we spilt it. Everyone gets .0008 of a cent.
