comes out on june 17th, but it was leaked, and the free trial you can find around pirate bay.

omg a solrock.
i think its pretty versatile and has a lot of room to go much further than the pixar-esque aliens that maxis has shown.

i saw a developer video of this game a year ago, it looked amazing.
supposedly, u can go online wit ur world and enter the spore universe, and if ur civilization evolves far enough, they develop technology to go to other worlds =s sounds epic.

I drew a blank when it came to naming the thing.

I was surprised the engine was able to animate it smoothly. I couldn't get it to use it's torso-horns though.

Games like Spore and Black&White make me feel horrible to not have a graphics card with a 2.0 pixel shader.

Inbetween the button "bewerk" and "Verven" is a button where you can go for a testride and play a little with it.
Meh, grammar

if you download the installation for the full creature creator, and go in the spore/sporebin folder and paste in the trial exe, it unlocks about 2/3 of the parts.

omg arceus.

Yes, you can command them when you're testing them. There's many different emotes you can make them do. You can move around and jump with arrow keys+space (double clicking makes it run). The program can record videos and upload them directly to youtube. It can also make animated avatar gifs from the creatures so soon we might see people use those avatars made with Spore Creature Creator. There's already 20k+ creatures in Sporepedia and the servers have been just opened today! You can download creatures from Sporepedia, small files and all the info is saved in png picture format which is quite neat.

Yessir. But I have to finish High School before they accept me. >_>. Don't I?
I'm graduating in 12'. Last time I checked their site, they required you to have completed High School before you can turn your application in. Am I wrong? O_o
(I'm planning on a Bachelor of science in computer engineering, a minor in mathematics(freebie), a master of science in computer science and another bachelor in business) ^.^

Pretty much everything in Spore is procedurally generated. That means that things like animations have to be calculated on the fly for whatever crazy monsters you come up, no matter how many or how few limbs they have, or the configuration of their spine. This is why the downloads are so tiny in size, because you are actually downloading a blueprint to build a monster around instead of the monster itself.

Check My documents, there's "My Spore..." -folder (or something like that). Creatures, videos, screenshots, animated gifs all go there.
