Hopefully. I think it'd be interesting to see how Darkspore turns out nonetheless... | |

| Darkspore will likely turn out to be a fine game. Maxis is really advertising it. They wouldn't advertise a game that sucked. And if Ratchet and Clank have taught me anything, action RPGs are pretty cool. Plus, they've incorporated the customization features of Spore that everyone knows and loves. Besides, how bad can a game by the creators of Spore be? | |

| Gelatino: If you really think that, EA's brainwashed you. That or your ignorant to how EA really operates. Their milking a dying cow, basically. Darkspore is just going to be another Diablo clone with fancy graphics and a glorified outfitter. Plus, your "They wouldn't advertise a bad game" argument.... I'm just going to say this: Developers advertise their games NO MATTER HOW BAD IT REALLY IS. EA is pretty much in complete and total control of Maxis, so they are going to make them make a lame spin off of a great game, completely butcher the original concept of spore. And release it to make an extra million bucks.
You really need to release that Maxis is nothing but a puppet that signed its soul off to EA at this point. | |

| I agree with Hutch, they changed the concept of spore. The game was supposed to be about science and evolution and a bit of Sci-fi. For darkspore it's completely sci-fi. And the editor, I hate how you can't make your own creatures, if you could it would make the game 5X's better and I would most likely buy it. | |

You really need to release that Maxis is nothing but a puppet that signed its soul off to EA at this point. Well, that's what happens with most entertainment media franchises. If the developer's lucky, they'll own the rights to their IP. | |

You really need to release that Maxis is nothing but a puppet that signed its soul off to EA at this point. I don't even know what I was thinking when I said that advertising part... You're absolutely right about that. But I'm not thinking of Darkspore as the next part of Spore or even associated with it at all. I'm thinking of it as an independent game that has some Spore concepts mixed into it. And I happen to like action RPGs, regardless of who makes them. | |

| I'm not dissing Darkspore but why the hell did Maxis and EA leave Spore in the dark? Do they think a Spin-off will help the spore players? From what I see, more then 50% of the Spore players don't like this idea. Where is are patches for the glitches and improvements? Where is the expansion/part packs? In 3 years, we only got one expansion and parts pack!
I mean, look at Sims 3! In only 2 years they got 3 expansions and I don't know how many stuff packs. I'm only giving an example but since Sims and Spore are very similar siblings why do we get nothing in 3 years and only a spin-off! It's madness. Madness? THIS IS EA! |

| @Raz, Sims 3 is more popular than Spore, why would developers concentrate on a game that won't make as much money?
Remember their motive; money. | |

Remember their motive; money. You don't seem to understand my point. People are losing intrest in Spore because of the developers concentrating on other games. But they indeed do want more money... |

And as I said, diablo clone with a spore logo on it. | |

Dark spore is just a spoof that will fail...it LOOKS cool and all, but it's not as creative or awesome as spore....So I am not buying it. No way.

| Lazer, you've got it all wrong. You can't compare Darkspore to Spore because they are completely different genres. | |

| Nah, I'll just get it the same way I got Spore. I'll just wait till someone else buys it, gets sick of it, then gives it to me. | |
