They gave one of my favorite games of all time a 7, and constant 9+'s to garbage like Final Fantasy. I say they're not reliable in the slightest. Though I do like that magazine.

I'm not getting this due to the fact that I wasn't too huge on regular Spore and this isn't all that much of an improvement from what I here, but I might consider it after I get some other games I want.

I'll get it at soon as I have good user reviews and positive game critic reviews in hand. No point in wasting my money on a game that most likely costs around fifty-forty dollars (Wii version).

MaxisCactus-can you answer the question that has been asked all along: will you be able to download creatures of the online website

I can probably answer this for you. I played the game last month at a Blogger's Day event. The short answer is no. The Wii version does not have online capabilities so you have to build your creature within the game. The DS version can connect to four players in the same room or two players online. You have to build your own creature inside each game.

Hope that helps. It's still a very fun game, similar to Spore yet different enough to be a separate game.

ah ok...thanks for the clarification...

And I don't have any money.

Well for the most part it's a good idea to find a good reviewer/review site that compliments your taste in gaming. If the site perfers Turn Based RPG's because a majority of their staff enjoy games like those more they're likely going to be more biased towards those games. It's kind of like trying to find somewhere that gives decent movie reviews, you have to looks for a place or person or outlet that compliments your tastes more.

Or, look at and compare scores from multiple critics.

Well there goes getting to use some of my good creations online. I was kind of hoping I would...

No way am I gonna spend 60 bucks on a wii game that got a 4/10, and just jumped away from the whole evolution concept

But I am not gonna be totally off the hook until gameinformer writes their review. They are legit.

Gameinformer? I was there looking for some reviews, and they don't have anything. Not a single game I was looking for was even mentioned on their. My guess, their not even going to do a review.

Where did it get a 4/10? Anyways, reviews are retarded. They are peoples opinions...on amazon, there are 2k ppl that gave spore a 1 star...what do you think of spore? Awesome..yeah..wow...reviews really show what a game is about, sure...not. Unless the game has a huge problem with it.

Ordered the game, receiving it tomorrow, will write a huge review after i play for 3 hours.

I hated spore. The only thing I felt I paid for was this forum. The game was buggy and laggy, and no way potrayed evolution the way I had expected. So yeah, I gave it a one star rating.

If you really think you give it a 1 star, you fail...you have to at least give spore a 3/5 if you didn't like it...the idea made it to 3 stars...its an amazing idea and no other game is like it. 1/5 stars? Wow...that is just stupid. Spore deserves more than that. I would give spore plus GA a 4/5 stars. I'm 14 and love art, and love to create things.

I mean reviews from critics :p

Anyways, Just writing a review of the gameplay and how it is, controls, quests, story, etc...and also compare it to this spore and see if there is any HUGE mistakes.
