So I been doing a little digging and trying to find out what the heck people are complaining about and I found some great reviews telling me exactly why people hate EA. They don’t necessarily hate Spore or Will Wright, but the Security around The Spore game.
So In a couple of these comments. These reviews talk about Creating the creatures and All. I’ll submit some of the reviews that I thought was relevant and let you decide for yourself. I would however wonder the one big question? Is Spore Worth the Money? Here’s the details that I know of right now:
[ad]
- You can only install it 3 times before you have to call EA to get an override code. (Although I heard rumors that if you unistall it, you will get a credit for an Install)
- You can not Install new hardware or upgrade your hardware because if you do, it’ll count as an install, According to this one person.
- The game only allows 1 login per Install. So you can’t have more than one character and one universe according to this person.
- Part of the Copy Protection prevents you from taking your saved games off your computer and taking it over to your friends house, according to this Person.
- On the Mac Version, it tends to breaks subsequent versions of the system services according to this one person.
According to Amazon the reviews aren’t pleasant. I tend to agree does this mean there are going to be even more people pirating it because they don’t want the DRM or Is EA going to send out a patch to fix this. I am curious as to see how EA responds to all this NONE TOLERANCE to DRM.
After seeing all these reviews of Spore, I tend to agree with everyone. I’ll probably wait and see before I buy my copy. All the reviews however don’t look promising or even makes the games look like it wouldn’t be fun.
