My biggest complaint about Spore was that it was four or five different games, and just when you started getting the hang of one the game said "Evolution time!"

My biggest complaint about Spore was that it was four or five different games, and just when you started getting the hang of one the game said "Evolution time!" and jerked you into the next one. By the time I was enjoying anything about the game, it took it away and gave me something else new to learn. By the time I got to the phase of the game I was going to spend more time on (cities and civilizations) I just didn't care anymore. Like Doom 3, Spore was a game killed by pre-release piracy for the sole reason that people had fair warning about how terrible of a game it was.
