    SPORE, don't believe the hype. (spoilers)

    What did you like about it? I've seen a couple people say they liked it, but I've never seen anyone explain what they liked or why they liked it.

    Zero Punctuation: Too Human

    I'm surprised this one wasn't spore. Didn't spore come out in Australia before America? And given the hype behind it, the DRM, and the number of people who found it disappointing, I came to the site this morning expecting it. But maybe he didn't have time to play it and make a video... or...

    SPORE, don't believe the hype. (spoilers)

    Which games would that be? Simon Say's? World of Warcraft clone 27? Civilization 0.5 for Dummies? Escape Velocity Justkiddingwehavenoseriousplotlinethistime? Flow? If I wanted to play these games, I'd play the real thing, not this dumbed down version. Sorry, that sounded less condescending in...

    SPORE, don't believe the hype. (spoilers)

    That doesn't sound like a good thing. A video game shouldn't make you feel numb, we have morphine for that. I'm not saying you're wrong for enjoying the game, I just don't understand what people enjoyed. I've seen people say it was a fun game, and I'm curious, what part?

    Poll: Spore: Fun and Schizophrenia

    I would articulate all the reasons this game is the worst game ever made... but I already did in another thread: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/326.70988?page=2#712634

    SPORE, don't believe the hype. (spoilers)

    I can't imagine anyone liking spore, but I suppose Yahtzee will deliver a scathing review tomorrow and all the spore fans will come out in "flock." In the mean time, let me tell you what I think of the game: I figured out why spore sucks last night. It took my six hours to actually...

    The Best Zombie Movie Ever?

    Big fan of the Dawn of the Dead remake (and I almost universally hate remakes). It really was part of a change in the genre (along with 28 days, which I hated). Perhaps we've just become desensitized to the living dead, but watching Land of the Dead, I kept thinking: Just walk away, they're...
