New This Week: Games Where Your Money Used To Be

Spore
Publisher: EA
Developer: Maxis
Mac, PC, DS
On sale: September 7
Fucking A, it’s here. And by “it’s” I mean a merciful end to all the hype. Spore, the game that has been years in the flogging, rolls out this Sunday. Which, taking Spore creator Will Wright’s E3 speech, could very well be a tongue-in-cheek reference to the Book of Genesis. In this case the game has a very real chance of living up to both the hype and possible blasphemy. The release also marks the first step in the battle of the “make games.” Round two commences with the release of LittleBigPlanet in October. You can get the jump on unleashing your new race of Korvaxes, Snorks or some Ron Jeremy-inspired race of walking penises by pre-downloading the software. Will Wright will flip the switch and bring it all to life on Sunday. Tiger Woods isn’t the only dude that walks on water around that company.
Pre-order your copy of Spore.
