as palapalooza says above - this should be considered it's own game - not a sub-game of Spore

When they showed it in March it looked good enough just being that. I mean how much more would you want from the game. It's just a small bite sized game not an epic, large scale game with a huge budget. They make it sound like it's bad that it's apparently a short game. Oh well, can't wait until it comes out.

This is like reviewing Pac-Man when you really want to play World of Warcraft. From what I've seen, Origins is more like a customizable pac-man game. You construct a little critter the way you want then swim around eating things smaller than you while avoiding things bigger than you. This in itself could be a very fun game. When Touch Arcade reviews this game, I hope they focus on it being a stand-alone game rather than constantly comparing it to the full version of Spore.

At the very least they should come out with Spore Creatures which is what is being released for the Nintendo DS (it allows your characters to be above ground, but still limited to what the full spore is going to be.)
