In other news, GamersGlobal have a five page preview of Spore up, since they're yet another one of the lucky press groups to get some hands-on time with the game. It covers all five phases of the game in some detail, including the following snippet:
Using the Internet, Spore shares the designs you create in the different stages of the game with other players around the world, so your creature might turn up as an NPC creature in another persons game. Likewise, many of the lifeforms and buildings you'll encounter will be creations of other players. But what about obscene body forms which might insult other players? Will Wright and team have thought about that, there will be a function to flag such designs as "disgusting". If we've understood Darren Montgomery correctly, this will not only stop them from appearing on your screen, but also might ban them worldwide if enough players protest against a particular design.
