If you want to get yourselves all set for the release of Will Wright's simulation game, Spore, then you can head over to the EA Store now and download it in preparation for its September 5th release in Europe.
Of course, you won't be able to play it, but it does mean they'll be no hanging around on the 5th, you'll be able to dive straight in.
Upon release on the 5th September, the game will take approximately 30 minutes to decrypt before you can access the game. You will be charged for the game at the point where it is available for pre-load on the 28th August. Spore will retail at £39.99
Otherwise, you may well be holding off in anticipation of the Spore Galactic Edition which features a Making of Spore DVD, a video by the National Geographic Channel, The Art of Spore mini-book, a fold-out Spore poster and a premium 100-page Galactic Handbook.
Spore gives players their own personal universe in a box, allowing fans to create and evolve life, establish tribes, build civilisations, sculpt entire worlds and explore a universe created by other gamers. Spore gives players a wealth of creative tools to customise nearly every aspect of their universe: creatures, vehicles, buildings, and even spaceships. Players can then seamlessly share their creations with the world via the Sporepedia and explore infinite new galaxies created by other gamers*.
