    I think its a wait and see for me, there has been so many lofty claims made about this game that I doubt it will live up to the hype.

    Anyway I thought it was ages away from completion and I never pre-order games as its never been necessary really, too many shops near me though I know thats not the case for all.

    Its one of those games which its release date keeps on getting pushed back.

    I'm really excited about this game, the concept of it sounds amazing. Hopefully this does deliver what it promises.

    I said exactly the same and then watched the e3 videos with Robin Williams playing and providing the comedy voice over as this video shows lots of the game.

    I'm just patiently waiting now, for this, Duke Nukem and another few games that were mentioned years ago that have still not seen the light of day

    im not overly convinced by it really... technically it looks awesome, a really clever bit of programming but I can't help but think that after a few days the novelty will really wear off and the actual game will be a bit ordinary.

    If I'm wrong though, fantastic

    This is not directed at you vinny but I wish I had the gift of foresight, I could rate spore with 5 stars then, even before I play it.. I wish that Amazon would stop morons posting comments on a product before it is released by disabling its commenting functionality. Things like this drive me up the wall for some reason.


    BTW: I can't wait for spore. It looks exciting, I just hope it will deliver. I'm sure will Will Wright at the helm it will.

    Don't worry, I didn't take it personally.

    I noticed the reviews and the grading of the game, like you, I cannot understand how they can come to award any amount of stars for a game (or film, book, or whatever) when it isn't even released (even the release date given by amazon isn't set in stone).

    looking forward to a release is one thing but giving marks out of 10 is another.
