Are you serious? I want a source on that.

Also I do buy games I like. But so far it's almost only Blizzard games.

Well brilliant, now I can't run Spore because of my dual GPU videocard, need to wait the patch... ;]

I will buy the game soon, looks like a great game...I think I'll love stage 1 ;)

Bringing the industry down?

When they limit the amount of times you can install a game, you are NOT buying it, you are RENTING it.

This has NOTHING to do with not being able to afford it, i buy games when i see that they are actually worth the price. Let me also point out that they are NOT doing this to stop people from pirating, they are doing it to stop people form RESELLING games.

I will pay for a game when i see it is worth it. Paying for spore? No way i would waste my money on that. So if i have no intention of buying it in the first place, there is NO PROBLEM with me downloading it, because they are NOT losing any sales from me - the sales were never there to begin with.

Lets say i DIDN'T download it. OK, what now? I am NOT going to buy it, so by NOT downloading it i have made a total of ZERO difference. People forget that there are MANY different types of pirates. I pirate if: a) i have no intention at all of buying the game, b) my country has only been issued with an EDITED version (eg. Fallout 3), or c) i do not feel it is worth the price.

As with the last point, when the games comes down in price or if it is on sale, i WILL buy it. I do NOT think it is appropriate for them to charge $110 for a game, no matter how good it is.

that is pretty fucked up, i mean only 3 downloads per a cd i fucking bought

just bought it, installing now!

for all the legit buyers whats your username, if you add contacts on this you see their creations more often in games.

mines: ramuthra-x since some idiots taken my name even though i got it on release day

I downloaded it pretty fun really, got onto space age and started a war with some randoms (They keep attacking my colonies D:)
Anyway i'll probably buy it once it goes down in price a bit, see what the online content is like.

I don't really like it. Building a creature is fun, but as a game spore is horrible at any stage (so far, anyway), in particular stage 3 which is basically just a poor RTS.

If you weren't going to buy it, but you did download it and later on let a friend try it and he liked it so much he actually bought it. That way EA made profit of you downloading it, right?

Well this maybe doesn't work with games as good as with music but it does work this way more or less.

Anyway this doesn't bother me since EA hasn't made any good game imo for a loooong time. But as said, they are just justifying piracy.

And there was a fully playable copy out 2 days before release anyway so Pirates > EA even before the game begins.

Here it goes....
My teacher is in love with "Spores"
He played it this morning at 2nd period no joke..
Those that go to my high school...
He said that hes letting us play next week....
This subject is Biology and you know how the animals or creatures have to adapt to survive he said that it will help alot in biology so we are gonna play this so-called game for about 3 weeks thats almost a month and half the marking period...
Anyone who doesn't believe seriously...
My teacher got addicted to this game...
Hehe.... More fun for me during school...

It is very repetitive, gets boring after a few hours, and graphics are horrible(can't really complain though because it was released for Wii console) and the evolutionary concept is not exactly correct.

it would be more correct if the parts you got got better over time, problem is at the moment you can just find a big set of bones and bam

Downloaded it last week. Good game. Not great, but good. Gonna buy it once I get my paycheck in about 1-2 weeks.

Spores is fun.. it's like sims but you can make monsters and more stuff and your own design
