Amazon Reviewers Hate 'Spore' For Silly Reason
Mon, 09/08/2008 - 08:52 — Jason Van Horn
I picked up my copy of Spore yesterday, and though I only got enough time in so far to make it to the creature stage, I'm already loving my creature's journey through the ages. It seems other people love the game too, but you wouldn't know that if you went to Amazon, as angry DRM haters have given the game 1-star ratings for that reason and that reason only. It's actually funny to read about these sad losers and how they say you're renting the game instead of owning it. The matter is silly too, for who needs an infinite number of times to install the game? I install a game once and leave it on my computer until I'm tired of it and then I delete. I've never installed a single game more than three times ever.
You know who hates Spore - bloody pirates!

Spore
I have the original copie and i know why they hate it...
The game is fullll of problems, not only when playing, but especially when wanting to play for the first time. It doesn't start, it doesn't work, or it keeps getting stuck al the time (you can verify that too on google). So what do they do: they uninstall and reinstall...yet it still doesn't work (after long searching, it seems that most of the time the problem is a driver for the videocard, wich is in some cases almost impossible to find a newer one), so they uninstall and reinstall again, etc etc. Then they come to the conclusion that they can't anymore, and their game for wich they have been waiting for months to play, is gone.
Also, my pc is not the best one, it crashes sometimes and i have to format it. I want to be able to keep playing in that case too.
I know piracy is an issue, but i doubt that lotsa ppl will donload this game illegaly, because then they won't be able to play it online, and it's no fun without...i think:p
I'm gonna play it now for the first time;) after 2 days of searching for a good driver:p. It BETTER be good and working
