Spore - Mac Fail

Posted: September 7th, 2008 | Author: Brandice |

I’ve already heard all the lines from everyone about “Macs aren’t for gaming” and “Run BootCamp, duhhhh” but I’m still really pissed that Spore is being released today with the follow Mac requirements:

I bought my Mac in October of 2007. It’s not even a year old yet, and my GMA 950 video card is insufficient to play the game, which (for the Mac) is just a crappy Cider port.

Also, where is the iPhone version? It was due to launch simultaneously with the other versions today and it’s not in the App Store or iTunes.

Feisty. That’s how I’m feeling about Spore today, and yet I asked Jim to pick up the Nintendo DS version if he can find it at the store today. *sigh*

*ALSO - Amazon reviews have a lot of talk about ridiculous DRM involved in purchasing/using Spore.

  • Spore probably isn't in the App Store yet because it's in the approval process. I wonder if Apple allows developers to specify a launch date for their app or not. :|
  • I've heard the iPhone version isn't that great and doesn't really have anything to do with the actual PC version but I could be wrong.
