Lord Henry II: What an astute observation, however, as previously noted, the CC: Complete (CCC?) has FOUR TIMES the content of the free version.

But if I go and just download the free one and buy the game, I'll only have to pay 50$...

I wonder why this site hasn't started talking about secuROM yet, I would think that this news would be big enough to post something, but i guess it's not totally comfirmed but it's everywhere and it's been out for a couple days now, why isn't there an article about it here? oh well if you don't know what I'm talking about just type securom google and you'll find out...

But if I go and just download the free one and buy the game, I'll only have to pay 50$...

at gamestaion spore is only £24.99 i think

I wonder if the Creature Creator is going to have the SecuROM on it too...

Lol... Dr. Kilory: Don't dis spore just because your computer SUCKS. ... moron. Any one with half a brain can build a computer to run both Sims 2 and Spore just fine for less than the price of a PS3

No, Spore is $50, The CC is $10. That is $60. And it is $5 cheaper, so 55$ is the discount price.

Don't you mean $65 rather then $60? xD

Now I really don't want Spore, Why? Because I have sims 2 and it is laggy, imagine what Spore would be like!

Hmmm... spore sucks, eh? No comment. As for the news, this rocks. Blim hath not preordered spore yet, and is planning to buy the CC full price, but this may be good news for many who already did.

Why would you preorder, just get I doubt they would easily run out with a game like this

I learned my lesson pre-ordering from Amazon back when Fable was released. My shipment got delayed by 2 weeks... -_- So, I canceled the PO and went to Gamestop and got it. Long story, short: Be careful with Amazon.

This is the deal from Amazon.com. "$5 Spore Creature Creator: Complete Pre-Order Bonus Pre-order Spore Creature Creator: Complete and receive a gift certificate of $5 towards a future Amazon.com purchase of Spore. See details. Offer good while supplies last." http://www.amazon.com/Electronic-Arts-15864-Creature-Creator/dp/B0017KWJ56/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8&s=videogames&qid=1209770019&sr=8-2#productPromotions

As I've previously stated, the article has worded this incorrectly. You do NOT get a discount for pre-ordering Spore. Let me repeat, there is NO discount for pre-ordering Spore. There is a discount for buying the FULL CC if you ALSO pre-order Spore. Despite what the author has witten, visa versa is not true.

ya same question for me too?!!?

i already pre ordered spore from gamestop, Do i get the Creature Creator?

EA better do this themselves... (Pre-ordered from the EA store)

Umm, sorry Alterego but you're not correct. You state "We can preorder Spore to get the full CC for free!" when in fact the order is the opposite. Buy the CC and you get a discount on Spore. You're giving out incorrect information, it's not a matter of interpretation. Your essentially telling people to preorder spore to get the CC free but that is NOT the deal. The deal is that you buy the CC and get a discount (possibly less than the 10 dollars) on the full game.

Player: That is just another point of view, the fact is that we might be able to get the game AND the CC, for 50$. So either Spore is cheaper, or the CC is for free, it doesn't really matter

sporefann-I'd be really suprised if you couldn't

I looked at this "Little Big Planet" and Spore really beats it in customation,creatures,and much more.The Little big planet thing is like customize thing but spore has alot more options and spore is funner!And cooler.Oh and can we make south Park charecter in Spore?

I emailed Target curious as to their discount rate and got this reply: Greeting from Target.com. We currently do not have "Spore Creature Creator: Complete" listed for sale on Target.com and are not at present offering a pre-order discount for "Spore" itself. Our prices and promotions are subject to change, however, and we may be offering such a discount in the future. We do not have any information available about future promotions at this time, but we will update our website as soon as any additional information becomes available.

thats great!!!

yeah spore beats little bigplanets butt off

Blue freak, this is a SPORE fansite. Go to a little big planet website if you want to talk about that game. Also, way off-topic.

i got to say even with spores abillity to make almost watever u want(almost) little big planet is way better u can make everything ur heart desires except weopens and thats it its way better

Discounts are always fun.

ok...

Cool! The game will still ROCK!!

You'll have to contact Amazon about that, Mystify. Let us know what you find. ...and just to reiterate: There needs to be a countdown to the CC under the Spore countdown!

What if you already pre-ordered spore? Can you get the creature creature at a discount?

This article needs to be corrected, Alterego. You quoted the response as "will be offering discounts on Spore for buyers of the Creature Creator." But then you claim this is saying "We can preorder Spore to get the full CC for free!" You have it backward. If you buy the CC at full price, you can get a discount on the full Spore game. Not visa versa.

I'm totally doing this if the store which is most convenient for me supports it. This sounds great, you pay in two small installments so its less of a hassle, AND you get the creature editor early. What part of this would I not like? IF the store most convenient for me supports it. I'm not going out of my way for convenience, that's just self defeating.

Sucks I already pre-ordered it. Ahh that's ok, I'm not in France.

what if I ordered the CC editor from EBGames and they don't give a discount on full game, it's not the end of the world but so much for getting the CC editor for free

or we can buy the CC for 50$ en get Spore for free!!!!!! =D

amazon only gives 5$ discount =(

BY THE WAY, Spore 1212 ive liked watched all the vids and crap and they said they'll have the demo at their home website, spore.com. Hope that helps!

Well scince it's not out yet, I'd think they're not putting the preorder on the market... maybe(i havent checked) the game, but not the CC. I mean they need to let the news spread before everyone just buys the CC, but not too late cuz the discount would be worth nothin. but what's wierd is that you can preorder the CC and game @ gamestop, but if they're givin a discount, they aren't showing it, but it'd be a good idea for them.

does any one know where that free version demo can by find?:p

Pulzifer: Maybe you can order it online for 50$, so you can download it and get a Spore preorder too.

Hmm okay. x3 I wonder if Gamestop has the discount and CC Editor.. Anyone know?

wait... i dont get it... if you live in france and buy the CC you get a discount, but what if you buy it online... rsum? :S

Good... I guess
