Spore Almost Ready for Production, Complete With "Sporn"

It seems that there has been some backlash over questionable creature creation with the Spore creation tool. Some of this content has been cleverly and obviously nicknamed 'Sporn'. For better or worse, Spore's Producer Thomas Vu is saying the long-awaited game should be ready for production in about a week, keeping it on track for the announced September 7th release.

    There is sporn of it. No exceptions.

    What's really funny is that it usually requires a pretty dirty mind to see anything "sexual" in the sporne monsters. It's a bit like complaining at an inkblot-test that your shrink is showing you all those perverted pics.

  6. What a great quote to choose, CNN... by porcupine8 · · Score: 4, Funny

    One Spore fan told CNN: I consider this very similar to child pornography, at least to the extent of distributing the material to children.

    Child pornography: This isn't it.

    So, I've payed > $13.99 * 48 = $672 to play WoW over the past 2 and a half years and they can turn it off whenever. $50 might just be a bargain.
