I think spore is kinda like black and white. You have a creature, and you can go on counquering lands and all. but i htink spore expands on the whole "play god" premise.

yes its a cross of
black and white 2, sims 2, simcity, civilation 3, blah blah blah and you can stop at any time and just go in GOD MODE and do whatever you want :)
If you just want to create creatures you don't have to build a town, etc. If you just want to build a town and not worry about a creature you can. if you just want to attack towns then fine and you can be abducted by aliens :)
Remember b&w is an ea game

Let me tell you why it's gonna be better than B&W, mainly because Your'e not stuck on a specific era, you can advance the time yourself, it's all about you..

I don't know why, but I picture it as Dogs 3 meets Atlantis: The Lost Empire PC Game. In the graphics sense. Can anyone suggest a site I can learn more on? Or see a picture of it? Or something? Tak.

It's so open-ended that you make your own stories and control everything.
Just what I like :)

yeha Spore sounds better than b&w in alot of areas. are we gonna have like miracles or im guessing "powers" in this game?
It's less like you get a creature, and more like you own the species. You shape their evolution over time, and decide how, as a species, they will become. Therefore if I had to relate the player to something in this game, it would be the Illuminati, or Astrum Argentum...one of those secret societies that claims to be shaping humanity slowly over time, in the shadows. In that sense I don't think it will be anything like Black and White.

I don't know how much off topic I am now..
BUT... If it'll be a mix between all those games.. will the creatures have economy? I mean, do the player need to think about that :indifferent: ??
Or is it only nescesary to think about the brains evolution??
Mr.Heat

I don't think we have to worry about economic issues, as long as wer'e taling about, mosters...lol

I believe it was said that you could take over other creatures cities diplomatically, which in most games means trade. And so yes, I'd imagine you do have an economy. My personal economy would most definitely be based on the illegal sale of ugly creatures as food.
I think Gamespy went over it in their article, but I could be mistaken. And the chocolate hasn't kicked in yet so I'm not up to reading it all through again.

I think it will be much more then that. It will be like many different (great games) packed into one. You play god, city person, the actual creature, and all that jazz. :spin:

I don't know Bill, your avatar suggests that you might prefer to illegally sell skiiers to ugly monsters... as food.

Are you implying that skiers aren't repugnant and ovals with sticks are? I challenge you to a poke-battle! Go Mewthree!

I think Spore is like Black and White, just more complex and detailed and definitly more possibilities for variation and stuff. Alot more freedom.

yah El Cid. It will be ALL the great games, gathered into one SUPER game :spin: But I don't hope they'll focus too much on economics, I have never learned that trick about earning more than spending in SimCity4 or those, so I always end up with a tiny tiny city and a lot of debt! :laughing2:
I owned Black and White, but my computer could not handle it, so I returned it...
I don't think it will play much like Black and white, and I am sure it won't play like Black and White 2. I don't think it is more freedom, necessarily, but a much wider scope.

im not sure what you mean by scope, but you have got a lot more freedom.i dunno how you dont see that. i mean, how DONT you have more freedom in spore than in black & white 2? you live completely thru the EXISTENCE of the species you create in spore! cmon, this isnt more freedom to you? where have you been? :confused: arg i dunno what to argue other than that you said there isnt more freedom in spore. um could you please tell us HOW you think there isnt? then i could explain to you how there is, probly. or you might just prove me wrong. note:if i have in some way offended you, you can tell me im stupid. i dunno im so confused! :confused: :confused: :confused: [/i]
