I won't touch it 'til I'm certain it is what it is said to be. Too many EA Games have shown themselves to be absolute letdowns by the end of the second week of gaming. I want my games to last longer than two weeks, thank you. While Maxis generally has an excellent reputation, I'll still reserve my judgement...

Quite frankly, like Reenk Roink, I was sick of The Sims 2 very quickly. And Black & White 2, as well. Where has all the novelty gone too? Those good old days with flawed and problematic, but innovative games that awed you to no end, obsessed you, made you feel rich with every little accomplishment, and engage you completely into their own worlds?

Here's hoping Spore would be one of them :/
