Looks awesome, im getting it right when it comes out.

Yah, Spore should be way cool.
I hope they manage to get in something to actually do (like make huge battle fleets & go empire building) in the galactic scale.

It looks interesting, but I believe I'll wait and see until it's been out for a while before I decide to pick it up.

Awesomeness... overload... *short circuits*

I voted maybe, But I'd say I'm almost guaranteed to buy it within the first 30 days it comes out.

It depends...

I bought The Sims (and 3 expansions) and it was the greatest game ever for about a month. I was just consumed by the revolutionary gameplay. A month after that, it was still a great game. Then it really began to get repetitive. I bought Livin' Large, House Party, and Hot Date, and while these expansions added a bunch of new items as well as expanded gameplay options, the novelty like the Sims, wore off after awhile. Still, the game (and the expansions), kept me entertained for a good while. It was truly a great game.

The Sims 2 and the hype that surrounded it had be sold, and when I first started, I was amazed at the improved graphics and customization. But the game's novelty wore off really fast. I only played it for 2 weeks, before it got shelved. When my DVD-ROM drive died on me, the game (the only DVD-ROM game I have) was rendered unplayable, but it wasn't a big loss at all to me...

I guess these simulation games aren't really for me, I get tired of sending my character to the bathroom scores of times in a hour.

Still, Spore, from what I've seen, offers something new, but I never got into SimCity, and I burned out on The Sims, so I'm not going to get it when it comes out (Neverwinter Nights 2, Battlefield 2142, and Medieval 2: Total War will all be there). It may get consideration later if there is a lull in games that interest me, and I'll give it a go at it's reduced price...

I wish the creatures on the official website didn't look all cutesy and babyish. I'd be embarrassed to make creatures that look like that. They look like Teletubbies.

It seems like they are "going for" a babyish preschool-esque look.

I agree.

My Spore Creature isn't going to be a little cutesy raccoon. No, I'm going to make a race of Lumbering, Scorpion Tailed, Gorilla's with Armoured Plating.
