By Justin Haywald When Will Wright first talked about his plans for Spore, he set expectations so high that no game could've possibly lived up to the hype.

TVG: Spore Galactic Adventures Review
Original at Sporedum
• Mon, Jan 26
By ballightning Like the original release, the essence of planetary creation is something that EA Maxis is ensuring will be as intuitive and accessible for a wide an audience as possible. Sliders for a range of different attributes, from sea level, global temperature, and even the colour of the land itself, can be changed. Dropping the temperature on a planet covered by water will turn it to ice, whilst doing the opposite will turn the surface into an inhospitable and hellish vision of molten lava, fire, and brimstone; even the height and density of mountains and hills can be changed. That level of climatic extremes shows only a basic level of what players will be able to achieve when Galactic Adventures finally drops. Choosing the level of vegetation... [read the full post]
Play.tm: Spore Galactic Adventures review

• Sun, Jan 25
By ballightning Executive producer Morgan Roarty is here to take us around the add-on to EA’s PC hit, and talk of piracy and hardcore dissatisfaction is rapidly side-stepped as we pile into chatter on Spore’s mainstream success. The numbers make good reading, the Creature Creator having been downloaded over 6 million times, with 3 million copies of Spore sold, and over 64 million creatures invented. ‘Goals’ are key - tasks for creatures to complete, and these can be racked-up in succession in true sandbox style, allowing players to probe the limits of the game itself; the platform Maxis are offering us. If nothing more, Galactic Adventures’ toolset should be a sturdy test of just how robust the Spore game engine really is, and the quality and depth of the... [read the full post]
Worthplaying - Interview with Spore Galactic Adventures Morgan Roarty
Original at spore
• Fri, Jan 23
By ballightning MR: It’s all about the rating system. Every time you play the mission, you give it a rating, and we’ve seen it on the content side; if you go to Spore.com, all the good content bubbles up to featured content. Again, if you’re a really good guy who makes creatures out there, the most fame you’d get is featured content on Spore.com. That’s the only way you’re going to see your hard work and labor. These missions are a whole new avenue to show off your content. We’ve already proven with featured content that it’s going to bubble to the top, so I don’t see a problem with being able to see the good stuff and not be exposed to the bad stuff.
