awwwww.....cute, alien-dodos...

Spore is getting prettier and prettier....now i can't wait till its release...again
 
The more I see the graphics on this. The more I dread it's system requirements.
 
Just curious, but I've noticed that there has been so much hype for this game for the past two years or so.

Has anyone else ever seen so much hype, when the game still has a year to go before its release?

now i can't wait till its release...again

I know exactly how you feel. Everytime something new comes out I get SUPER pumped up...
and then I forget about it two weeks later.

Black&White also received an incredible amount of publicity, starting from day it was announced. Like Spore, it had an interesting premise, stunning graphics, and a famous developer.
 
IIRC, there was Duke Nukem Forever that is STILL in development for almost a decade (Since 1997). Somehow, I have a feeling that SPORE is just going to become one of thoes games that are like Duke Nukem Forever that would be on a very VERY long term development.

In other words, I have a feeling that SPORE would become a Vaporware
 
I've been following progress closely and a few months ago I would have agreed, maybe.
But not now, the latest info shows no sign of the developing team being scaled down, there's a lot of progress. Scaling down efforts is usually the first sign of a project going the vapourware way.

A large team working means costs remain high, which in turn means it can't be endless, even EA will run out of money at some point. Then Spore has to be released to see at least some of the investment returned.

I think we'll see Spore in 2008.

You would be right if we haven't seen anything of Spore yet, but we have. What was the last time you have seen an Ingame-Screenshot or even a Gameplay-Movie of Duke Nukem Forever that shows the actual developement-status?

I follow Spore since it's announcement in early 2005 and i can say, it doesn't look in any kind that this will become vaporware.

I think that in a year from now we all have our Spore at home and are nicely playing :)

Just curious. Will you actually play this game even though you don't believe in evolution? (I'm not exactly sure if you do, but I know you are Christian)
 
Christians do believe in Evolution, but "Creationists" don't.

But Spore is anyway a 100% Intelligent Design-Simulation and not an Evolution-Sim...

btw, why do you came up with this question? CivGeneral hasn't said anywhere that he don't "believe" in Evolution. At least i hasn't read it anywhere...
 
WARNING! WARNING! TENSIONS RISING:mad:

Let's diffuse the situation with a dirty joke:

A horse fell in the mud

I don't know what sect you are, but my family is Catholic and they don't believe in evolution. I asked because I knew from another thread he was religious, but I put in paranthesis to correct me if he did believe in evolution. Please read what I comment before accusing me of anything.

I didn't know Intelligent design didn't correspond with evolution. I'm pretty sure thats what Will Wright was heading for. You evolve new body parts, you evolve more itelligance, you evolve from a cell, creature, tribe, civilization to a galactic empire.

I don't want do debate, but how come you ask me, in what sect i am?! Despite the fact that this questions is purely unpolitely, this question should be asked from me to you. I am catholic, i don't believe in creationism or ID or in any of the other corresponding fantasy-constructions, i see the facts and know evolution happens and has happened all the time and at least, as it counts for us catholics, the pope said evolution doesn't go against christian believe.
Creationism and consorts is antisience, it's purly religious, not christian, but creationistic religious. I mean, come on, creationist propagate that dinosaurs were on the ark!
Btw, i asked you why you asked him this question, i haven't accused you on anything. Please read my reply again.

And no, ID is purely Creationism, well, in fact ID=Creationism. And in Spore you are the intelligent being and you create creatures from the cell to a space-farring civ. If Spore would be purely Evolution, you have to wait and watch how cells are forming, how fish are forming out of the cells and so on and so forth. You wouldn't have any controll of anything, well peraps until the tribe-stage at least.
Btw, Will Wright self said that Spore is pure ID.

That's my comment, i won't hijack this thread, i just wanted to tell my opnion on this.
For me this debate is at least in this thread over and i won't reply on this in this thread. If you want to discuss further, open a thread in the propper section.
