signed. I'm not installing my 'galactic edition' of spore. i got a install limit free version off a friend anyway.

i think i'd rather miss out on the online portion and just play in my own little universe where EA cant hurt me.

still, the art book that come with spore was pretty cool.

I feel like I'm RocketGirl (though I'm a guy) and continuing to pester EA with this petition.

Another bump for the sake of quelling Spode's wrath!

BUMP for SPODES SAKE!!

Signed again

Last weekend my main computer died forcing me to purchase a new HDD. The hdd was at fault. 1 installation gone. The new hdd is all good for now but what if this happens again? I've already installed it twice.

I work in the games industry, I sell this product everyday, the game is excellant, well made and well thought out EXCEPT for this maximum install limit. I plan on purchasing other EA products, I don't think their totally evil as a company, they publish some decent programs, but this limit of installs is a concern for a gamer who likes to upgrade his machine every once in a while. I hope EA take note of this forum because most consumers aren't happy about this at all.

Dealing with customers on the frontline everyday.

Because while I have not expierenced any technical problems with Spore, sooner of later (right around the release of Starcraft II) I will undoubtedly be upgrading the humming monolith that is sitting right next to me.

And this is what we're trying to show. Thank you Dragonseye.

And a ONE and a TWO and a THREE FOUR...

BUMP!! In your face EA!!

My first post on the forum and it is to sign this petition.
I knew about a lot of Spores problems before I bought it. I wanted something sligthly fun that would last me some days/weeks. Maybe I'm less careful with my money, but I only get to buy games a few times a year and then I tend to buy a span of genres with games I'm interested in to last me to the next time I buy games.
And I already had SecuROM on my machine so it wasn't anything new.
Still, the whole concept of renting games instead of buying is SPORE me off.
At least they should be honest about it and make the price half of other games that you actually buy for good.
There are so many great old games that people still play and they wouldn't be able to if this kind of DRM was implemented in them.
Imagine all those game companies taking a hit and having to close their servers. If that happens your game will be good for nothing.
And yes, people do need to upgrade some time during their lives. Even the most casual of gamers will need a new computer or a different user account etc at some point.

Most of this has been said already though. I have a great car analogy about DRM, but it is long and complicated so I think I will spare it for a more suitable thread.
Sign up people. Even though the cynic in me is saying that it won't change anything.
