SPORE

HI. Growing up I the only video games I had were SEGA and Nintendo I never really played computer games, until now.  My game of choice, SPORE. It is a strategy game with a big twist, when you start the game you are just one little cell.  Of course you start with a mouth and a little tail to swim, from there you have to eat and grow so you can evolve and grow legs to then walk on land.  While you are just swimming and eating there are 6 cell parts to unlock to make your cell better, but you also have to defend yourself against others.  Then to edit your creature you mate and can then add and change different parts to make yourself stronger and faster.  Soon after you collect all the parts and edit yourself however you want to look you will evolve and get legs to walk on land.  

Once you have legs edit your creature to look anyway you want.  Make it bigger or smaller, carnivore, herbivore, or omnivore, anything you can think of you can create in this game.  When you are on land you want to eat and grow like before except now you can talk to other animals in nests around yours.  Now this part of the game is where you need to start to add some strategy because you can make friends with other things or you can just hunt and become a predator.  Whatever you choose to do from now on will forever effect you in the rest of the game.  But I'll talk about that later.  So this creature stage is my favorite part of the game, this is where you need to get creative because you collect new parts here as well and when you mate you can edit your animal.  Like I said before anything you can think of you can create in this game, anything.  

Alright so now that your on land interacting with others, unlocking parts and editing your creation, you are also getting smarter by communicating and hunting.  This makes your brain grow and eventually you can talk to others and have them join your pack so you are not just walking around by yourself.  As you become smarter you will be able to have 3 friends of any species follow you around and hunt with you.  Once you reach the top of the food chain the next stage is tribal, here you form a village and have a leader who controls the rest of the tribe.  Now you can domesticate wild animals and gather food to have your village grow.  As other tribes form you can make friends or enemies to keep your village growing.  In this stage it begins to look like all those strategy games for PCs.  You don't just control one thing now you control all of your people.  

I know your probably thinking it, the next stage your village turns to a city.  You are still ruling over everyone and you must make your city make money and grow your military.  Now you just battle other cities so you can take over the world.  I haven't gotten through this part of the game I kept getting destroyed.  Then after the civilization part you get to travel through space and explore that.  Like i said I haven't gotten through that yet but my roommates did and it looks pretty cool.  

So basically I've been playing this game a lot instead of doing homework and what not.  I figured i could right about it and tell you all what a great game it is and I should have kept playing instead of write this blog.

I suppose i'll take this time just to say somethings that are on my mind.  Like why is my bathroom sink so gross. Do my roommates not know how to clean? Well, no, no they don't.  But why is there toothpaste all over?  Its a pretty big sink can't they just spit in it, not around it.  Oh well they're not going to listen to me if i say anything so I guess ill just deal with it.  It'll get cleaned eventually, like when there's weeks of grossness built up and the landlord is coming for whatever reason,  then we'll clean.  Thats how it usually goes, you know just wait till the last minute and rush trough it right before it needs to get done.  

Now that I'm thinking about it, the landlord is on her way here right now.  She's coming at 6 to get the rent, and yes we are suppose to be cleaning.  EH the house isn't that bad just needs a quick once-over.  Plus I'm the only one here and I'm sure as hell not cleaning by myself, especially since the mess is from the game yesterday and i didn't even invite any one.  But then again no one is gonna do it if i don't....So I'm off to clean.  sorry to bore you with my rant about the mess of a house i live in, maybe next time ill get into something a bit more interesting.

so long.
