When I first heard about this game, I was blown away. I have never bought a PC game before, so it would have been my first. It may still be if I find out the PC one is better. But I can't wait to see what they do with this for the Wii, as far as the controls go. Either way; on either version, this game looks and sounds sick. A must buy for me.

The online can be improved easily, the graphics can be pushed a bit. It would be nice to see the game actually use the TEV engine, but we'll see. I haven't seen many devs use it yet.

How will the controls be implemented?  Will the Wii-mote have a different function if your creatures are different?  Imagine, a scorpion like creature that you created would have a jab like motion with the Wii-mote to attack, while a cat like creature you'll swipe to attack.  That would be so awesome if they found a way to do that!

I always thought Sprore was a game that one of it's main focus was sharing player content, how is that possible with the Wii?

Will Wright might have said that but it wasnt officially confirmed that it will make its ways to the consoles until now. Also im not a sheep.

Actually, with WiiConnect24, content could potentially be shared live with other users 24/7.  Even when a person's Wii is shut off, it could still be transmitting data to other systems.  Spore is actually far better suited for the Wii than any other console.

I don't think Spore's selling point was its graphics.

wow i thought spore would be too complex in terms of control and micro management in order to port to consoles. We'll see how this turns out.

Lets see a game that is not focused on cutting edge graphics, is aimed at attracting a casual audience, and is made to work with a mouse . . . . Um, the game is basically a match made in heaven for the Wii as the Wii is also not focused on cutting edge hardware, has been a big hit with the casual consumer, and the fact that the Wii-mote is the best substitute for a mouse on consoles.

Since when did a game like Spore require intensive micro management?

Hmm... I'll probably get the Wii version; more comfortable and it's good to support quality 3rd party games.

Good that its coming to the Wii, even before that it was announced for it for some reason every time i heard the name spore my mind instantly jumps to "PIKMIN", though i've never played it before.

Its not aimed at a casual audience.

WTF are you talking about? Will Wright just said recently how they are making sure that the same people who played Sims play Spore. I bet you probably have little idea about what spore is and just because it's such a hyped game you're assuming it's a hardcore game aimed at the same people who buy Mass Effect and Crysis. Nope, it'sa game that anyone can enjoy, particularly the casual gamers who play things like Wii Sports or the Sims.

Well I doubt this came as a surprise to anyone, tho I would had expected 360 and PS3 versions at the same time. But better this way since now they don't have to spend time on dumbing down the controls so much. I just hope the PC version doesn't suffer from this aside from the obvious delay, hopefully they'll make both versions separately, designed ground up for the platform in question instead of stupid compromises or crappy ports.
