Spore EULA shows up on Valve's Steam service

Well, Crysis ( |Warhead) was published through the EA Partners program. One could say that TOB and L4D are in the same boat, really.

I assume that was a reply to me, but I fucked up too so no hard feelings. What I meant was "yes, this is the first internally developed EA game to appear on Steam, but Crysis.." etc

Total snoozefest man

The gameplay is very tedious and repetitive, and honestly doesn't present all that much of a challenge. If you enjoy making things then the game is certainly worth it, because the editors are brilliant. If you're looking for an enjoyable game tho, don't expect to be blown away by the mechanics.

I think it was a lot of fun... It could have used more fleshing out, but I'm sure expansion packs will take care of that

It's a hit or miss: personally I disliked it because it felt like 5 cheap clones of various games (because of the different gameplay throughout the different phases)... BUT I know a few people who loved it to death.

Spore isn't a "game" where you have rules and victory conditions, obviously, but if you can be entertained by constantly noodling around with how your creatures are going to look like and how they're going to survive in your habitat, go try it.

Sometimes in games like these it helps to make your own goals before you start up. I decided to create the StarControl races. Spothi are a still the best ones I have done so far.

Actually, the retail version of Spore doesn't need the disk in the drive to play...probably because EA is so confident in their unbeatable DRM.

Good news! I hate having to put in my disk to play a game, it's so console. :o

Crysis Warhead has the SecuROM DRM in addition to the Steam DRM, so there really isn't any reason to believe that Spore would do otherwise.
