Spore news!

Post by Molyneux »

Straight from http://www.gamingsteve.com, who acquired the info at the Gaming Developers Conference;
Gaming Steve wrote:...Core titles listed on the slide to-be-released titles were Battlefield, Sin City, Medal of Honor, Sims, Need for Speed, and little title named Spore. What's really interesting about this news isn't the fact that Spore was announced for mobile platforms but that the release date was listed as 2006!

Does that mean we'll be up to our eyeballs in Spore titles for the PC, consoles, handhelds, and mobile devices by the end of 2006? One can only hope!
Well, this has me pretty happy. On the other hand, it means I need to start saving up NOW...and I was already saving up for next Otakon...oh, cruel yet tasty fate! Why dost thou torment me so??

You do realize that mobile games are little more than bare fractions of the original, right?

Personally, I don't give a darn about the mobile games, I'm getting the PC version. I'm just glad that they're possibly aiming for a 2006 release.

Well, yeah, but I don't trust Gamespot as far as I can throw them. And it's fairly common for a preliminary release date to be pushed back, no?
