Buyer Beware! The DRM system is BUGGY too - it won't run at all! July 7, 2008 H. Rivers (Cambridge, MA USA) 140 out of 162 found this review helpful
Buyer beware. I bought a perfectly legitimate version of this product to run on my Mac. I installed it, while my kids sat by my side anxiously waiting to play. Then I typed in the license code and it said that I had already installed it too many times. What the?!? I had just unwrapped the plastic - how can it be installed anywhere?! The game won't run, stubbornly saying that I've already installed the license somewhere else. Well, I haven't. I've been contacting EA's customer support for over a week and they tell me that obviously I've already installed it too many times. Their fabulous DRM system is BUGGY and they don't seem to know it. I can't get anyone on the phone from EA (no phone number exists), their support people take days to respond, and they're useless when they do. I had to resort to withholding credit card payment from them. It's ridiculous. I'd love to be able to tell you how the game is, but it won't run. Buyer Beware!
Will not buy July 23, 2008 Eric C. Erickson (Washington, DC United States) 90 out of 106 found this review helpful
I was very much looking forward to this game, but when I discovered SecuROM, I decided that I cannot have EA invading my computer. Until media enterprises stop treating customers as enemies, they will see their sales plummet. For every pirate they block, they alienate a dozen legitimate customers.
Requires Internet access July 31, 2008 Pete R. 52 out of 59 found this review helpful
Nowhere on the purchase page does it state that you need internet access on the computer where you intend to install this game. My son doesn't have internet access at his home. At least I know now to cancel the Spore preorder.
Fun, but gets old pretty quick June 27, 2008 Joseph C. Helton 32 out of 42 found this review helpful
I'd heard quite a bit about Spore, so I really looked forward to getting the Creature Creator when it came out. Amazon delivered with typical speediness. As for the CC, it's cool, don't get me wrong. What you can make in just a few minutes is mind boggling. Like anything though once the novelty wears off, there's really not much here. You'd be better off download the free CC, then waiting for the game to come out.
Buyer Beware! August 11, 2008 cooking lady (NY) 31 out of 33 found this review helpful
EA can't manage even to produce a decent demo (that they make you pay for!). We bought the full demo to pass the time on a rainy vacation. My kids anxiously watched my try to install it. Emphasis on try. The thing didn't work. I tried 2 different operating systems on computers that met all the required specs. I scoured the net for advice. I followed all the advice and tips I found, changed files in the game, uninstalled the EA download manager... the game still freezes and crashes to desktop. All creatures lost, nothing saves. No way on earth will I buy the full version of this game until I can get some guarantee that it will actually run. I'm very disappointed in EA.
