I think it's because their computers are trying to resist the DRM protection, because it's similar to a Trojan horse. Spore has very low system requirements, so if you can run Age of Mythology, ten to one Spore will work fine.

Doesn't have anything to do with my game, the DVD-rom player doesn't recognize my disk. Right now I'm using Disk Cleanup, which will hopefully do something...

I have a baseball game that has made-up names for a couple of the players. One of them was Derek Lawler. Cool.

Okay, here are the creatures I have created so far: Floogler - my first creature. Kinda boring. They were Shamans. The Gorbex - Scientists The Ithlek - Traders The Nauzir - Zealots The Templerius - Knights The Fereden - Ecologists

Looks really interesting. How are these creatures created? Does Spore have some built in data on body parts or do you create them completely from scratch?

Built in body parts. You can resize and move the body parts however you like, and there are a wide range to choose from. The game then uses procedural generation to decide how your creature moves.

That's pretty amazing, and so are your creatures. They're really creative. Knowing me, the only thing I could come up with are anatomically correct lifeforms.

Are the eyes here under the helmet? Also, you don't mind if I add some of these to my game, do you?

Yeah, he has a cyclopean eye under his helmet. Of course I don't mind if you add them to your game, half the reason I put them up was so people could do that If any of you have any creatures of you own, you should post em' so I can add them. Oh, and if any of you didn't pirate it and want to be Buddies them my name on Spore is GaussFlux.

Almost anywhere where PC Games are sold...
Anyway, do you get to decide how your creature attacks things, or do they all just bite as an attack, or does the computer choose how they attack?

Depending on what part you put on it, different attacks become available. You choose what attacks your creature uses.
