Covak Posted July 26, 2005 Report Share Posted July 26, 2005 Sorry if this is old news, but I didn't come across it until today... http://www.pqhp.com/cmp/gdctv/ You can watch Will Wright's GDC presentation there, where he first showed and talked about Spore. Great to see it all in action after having read so much about it. Wow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberwoo Posted July 27, 2005 Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 Holy crap. That looks crazy. That character editor looks amazing. Should provide endless hours of entertainment just creating and tweaking characters alone. I'll definately be giving this game a shot.

Covak Posted July 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 2007? Damn I was thinkin it was closer to release than that. Yeah, was a bit of a bummer to learn that from E3 I remember some people saying how it looked so complete at GDC and it'd probably be out later this year, but I think he actually showed all they had at that point. Just a really advanced (and pretty!) proof-of-concept demo. Considering how awesome it already looked and that they're still taking another year on it, it could really be something amazing.

HoolieMan Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 Here is a new video of Spore. (it is dated March 2nd). It is about an hour long. Pretty crazy stuff. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-262774490184348066&q=spore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogbert Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 It is an old video recirculated. It is actually the video in the very first post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoolieMan Posted March 13, 2006 Report Share Posted March 13, 2006 My bad. I hadn't watched the first video (due to being lazy about registration). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry the Clown Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 Didn't feel like throwing this into the EA thread, so here we go... It’s quite well known what an avid gamer Robin Williams is. Turns out he attended this years E3 and sat in on the demonstration of creature creation for the forthcoming game Spore. Halfway through Williams is brought up to the front to sit at the PC and create his own creature and his running commentary on perhaps what will be one of the most bizarre things you ever see is hilarious. "What creature wouldn't want to grab his own ass?" At the end he also talks about his fondness for multiplayer gaming and first person shooters mostly on the PC, but praises the 360s online capabilities and how much he is enjoying going online with the console. He seems to like what he saw and played of the Wii (or Wii Too as he keeps seeming to call it. I think Reggie confused him at the start of his keynote). http://www.joystiq.com/2006/05/11/joystiq-video-wired-spore-event-featuring-will-wright-and-robi/ You can download the 40 minute video as one file direct, or there’s torrent link as well. I grabbed it form the torrent, but you can also get it in segments. I’d imagine it’s segment 3 where Williams is brought up to the front (around 24mins in). Before that its Will Wright taking you through the basics of the game, and I have to say I really like the look of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Daisy Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 Here's a funny snip from one of the person in the comments section where Robin Williams is asked about his daughter. I remember the story back in the day, a reporter heard his daughter was named Zelda and said "Oh like Fitzgerald?" And he said "no, like Miyamoto."

foogledricks Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3159321 Spore probably after March 2008. Perhaps Duke Nukem Forever and Spore should be combined into one super Voltron of a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberwoo Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Heh ouch. I had almost forgotten about this game until I saw this thread reserected. This game better be worth the wait.

Revenue was up nicely for the year, and they bought a bunch of studios. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dogbert Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 How to animate a character you've never seen before... Chris Hecker's kindly posted the slides & audio from his GDC Talk about the procedural animation system for the creatures in Spore. This was the highlight of this year's GDC for me - fantastically detailed at just the right technical levels & really exciting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Covak Posted February 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 "We're not announcing dates for any of our titles. We will tell you it's gonna be before the holidays."

Covak Posted June 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 Spore Creature Creator demo supposed to be out tomorrow, full thing (full $10 Creature Creator, that is) should be around by Wednesday. Here's an example of what you can do (not really safe for work): http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-689194118682834081 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Covak Posted June 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 I guess the demo was leaked and has been all over the net for a few days now. I came back from lunch to find some coworkers playing with it. It's really good fun, just being silly with it, and some people quickly created some cool-looking creatures. Impressive stuff, and loads of fun. I can't wait to get home and play with it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
