Spore: take 2

A while back I went on about the DRM backlash the Spore created for itself….

… but we appear to be over that now, and a great big list of amazing Spore creations has turned up on replicatorinc.com.

Which is quite remarkable given that this thing (as far as I can gather) started out as a platform for the crowd-sourced creation of cutsey wutsey little fowest cweatures.

As noted by Replicatorinc, imagine what will happen with this level of imagination is connected up to automated fabbing facilities… this is beginning to happen… but it’s still a very labour-intensive process.
