It's not out yet in Yankton, but our Wal-mart has it as a "lead" item. They are heavily promoting it, which means that sales should be strong.

Ha Yankton. Territorial cocksuckers.

With so much lead in to Spore, can it possibly live up to expectations? Watching that video, the designers set the bar pretty darn high.

Must be good cause Rik is rather emerged in the game. Told him yesterday on MSN his PBEM turn was up but havent seen him or the turn since.

And that was as 22:00 and he told me he had been playing from 16:00 continuously and now needed to cook something for himself

BTW, is it true, that you are only allowed for 3 installs. And that you otherwise have to call EA?

Not that I'd the time to play, so I probably prefer Conolonization over this anyway.
But otheriwse that'd be a reason I'd never buy it.

I doubt it, what happens if you need to reinstall the game etc? perhaps only on 3 different comps?

edit- guess you were right ynnek

my mistake!

You get 5 reinstalls this time, as opposed to Mass Effect and Bioshock's 3. So that's a huge improvement! In the end 2K dropped the reinstall limit, so EA might do that as well. Or then again, with EA being the latest incarnation of evil, they probably won't.

Wow! 5! Unbelievable !!11eleven!!!

I mean, there are a lot of games I have installed, deleted, reinstalled when I wanted to play them again, even after a few years...

But good to know, that I need to look for such obstacles when buying computer games soon.

I hope Colonization or Civ5 won't do such strange things...
