Rite then, first things first, if iv bin reeeeely stupid nd its somewhere else, then just delete this thred.

Ok then :) My stupid question:...

What is Spore???

Yeh, i know its stupid but what is it? I'm guessin its a game, which at some point involves creating creatures, but is there any chance you can give us some info on it? Is it a freebie or is it out in shops? Is it released in the UK/ EU? What sort of game is it? Black and White style? RPG?

If you could just post on this or create a new thread with info for anyone (like me) who don't have a clue what this game is all about, then it would be much appreciated :happy:

Ta :D

I think that's a good idea.

It's hard to explain. With spore you can create your own creatures and let them 'live' on your planet. You can't win or lose the game, it's a sandbox. There is no story, you create one. There is a goal though, and that is to advance in stages. First you can only control some cells, then a creature creature, then a tribe of creatures, then a city and at the end you'll be able to travel to other planets with a UFO. You can attack other planets, or pick up creatures and bring them to yours for example.

Maybe Switch can give more information when he notices this thread. You could also read through this and this page.

I don't think Spore is going to be released for 9 months or so.

True. There are a few advantages and disadvantages when reading interviews/previews about Spore.

Advantage: You can more easily judge whether you really want to buy the game because you get detailed information, and you have something to look forward to.

Disadvantage: You get tortured in your mind because you know the game that whose great features were described in those previews/interviews won't be released until around August 2007... It's a curse!

Haha, I tend to assume that people who visit these forums have probably visited the site at some point as well, and discovered what Spore is. Perhaps I'll post a pinned thread at the top of these forums directing people there if they don't know what the heck we're going on about. ^^
