Create universal wonder in Spore, an exciting new simulation game that lets you develop your own personal universe. Work your way through five evolutionary phases, including Cell, Creature, Tribe, Civilization and Space, that offer unique challenges, thrills and goals. For example, you can start in Cell and nurture one species from a simple aquatic organism all the way until it becomes a sentient life form. Or you can jump right in and begin building tribes and civilizations on multiple planets. What you do with your universe is totally up to you. The powerful creation tools of Spore are easy to use, allowing you to effortlessly design every aspect of your universe. Creatures, vehicles, building and even starships are all within your grasp. While Spore is a single-player game, your creations and other players' creations are automatically shared between your galaxy and theirs, offering a nearly limitless number of worlds to visit and enjoy. You can also go online to view the incredible things other players have made and can even pull those items into your universe. Spore gives you the chance to make worlds and beings that evolve, grow and delight you every step of the way.

I came to Amazon to buy Spore then learned about that DRM thing:
Spore is the first video I have ever been interested in buying. I read the reviews on that DRM thing and did some research. I have decided not to buy the game at this time.
Need to finish the game!:
It's like thay where on to something then someone told them to wrap it up realy fast and sell it the entire *game* (if it darded to be called so) Is nothing more then cariter creation.

It realy could have bin a masterfull game IF thay had made it so you could do something intresting when you where done creating you're alien. :P I give it a 12% outa 100.

A Total Waste of Money:
I facilitated this purchase for my son. He spent his summer wages on a new iMac and this was a rare case where he spent retail with his own money for the game based on the hype. He got a few days play out of it before he tried the upgrade. Now the game is toast. Worse, the news hit that this software installs a rootkit, subverting the host operating system in the fashion of the Sony root kit that infected over 6 million systems in America alone and provided common back doors for easy access to customer... more info
