Woppum Posted January 8, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 I saw a review last night on the telly actually. They were comparing it head to head against Gears of War and in the end they manged to have no clear winner! They are similar except its not as dark and gory and you get a much more open, almost Halo like setting in most areas. There are many more vehicles and weapons too. The lead character is Chinese!

CarMad Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 Most people won't have heard of it yet but SPORE... could be the big new game of 2007. Not expected to come out until 2nd quarter now but they want to get it right. Basically you create a creature that will fit into a rain drop at first, all the way in time to an entire galaxy. Very new and never been done before on this scale. Flick through the video below to see what its like at the start compared to the end.

CarMad Posted January 8, 2007 Report Share Posted January 8, 2007 Yep the very same. What you create and how it reacts with the world will be unique to you. From tiny organisms all the way to you controlling a planet. Very very clever and all the signs look positive on it being a cracking game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
