I want Spore sooo much, but I don't think my computer would be able to run it. Does anyone think there could be some kind of port to a console? Or is all hope lost?
<_<...>_> thats why he said "PS360" ya know...PS3 AND 360...Also, Spore doesnt take alot to run...512mb of RAM, any kind of video card really...and 2.0ghz processor, just go d/l Belarc Advisor and see if you have that.

My computer can't run anything. It could run runescape barely, if I actually wanted to play.

Indigo_Dingo: One wonders how this constant update from teh interwebs thing will work on the 360. Will it deny Silver users?
Well the system updates and the updates to Halo 3,COD4,Perfect Dark,Crackdown, only games I've tried when connected to the internet (with Silver mind you)

It also requires Windows XP because you have to have some EA update program in order to run it, and that needs XP to run. My computer can't handle XP. Therefore I can't play Spore even though I have the required RAM (If I have jack running, which I never do, because most of my RAM is taken by system processes and Firefox. Firefox I can close.). I tried playing Prey and it was ridiculously laggy even on the lowest graphics setting possible.
In regards to the game, I wouldn't even want to play a console version except on the Wii. Controlling character creation that's that specific (Not "choose your face from a list and we'll do everything for you") with analog sticks? No thanks. I have a hard enough time manipulating objects correctly in Forge. I can't even fathom making a monster from scratch.

True enough, but they are making a few console RTSs, so you never know.

But Spore requires a constant connection to the internet, but at the same time does not actually interact with it. That'd be markedly differently from updates.

You can get a crappy linear version on the DS, does that count?

It doesn't require it to be constantly connected to the internet. Only if you want to use the Sporepedia and download peoples creatures, etc. You can play offline just fine
OMG!! Why do people who are on consoles want pc games, i mean People could wish for things like the force unleashed coming for pc. In fact it comes out on every platform EXCEPT the Frigging Pc, Now thats just insulting! So why wish for things to come out on consoles? Things are PC exclusive just like the witcher and crysis, so if you want to play them then buy a better pc goddamit! They wont be bringing The witcher to consoles will they? Nor will they make a pc port of a JRPG EVER! So sorry if you dont have a good pc and if im being a bit too harsh on you, but i just hate it when people want the sky to turn black because they cant have a PC game. Sorry if this bothers you but its the way of the world, Besides you can get the ds version :D! Oh and if it comes out on the wii then thats FINE i guess because it will not be as good as the pc version ^^. If this is rather disruptive in anyway or you think its a massive rant (Which it is pretty much) then just ignore it. When i first saw the title of this thread i just thought i had to express my feelings about the subject, But if you wish to reply to this then go ahead i dont really mind.

FFVII and FFVIII were both ported to PC.
Lol woops didnt notice that, but you know what im talking about dont you? Anything thats concluded Console exclusive is quite unlikely to be put onto a pc. And same with the pc, its the way of the world.

Seriously, jump off the high-horse before you get pushed, you're making me slightly ashamed to be in the same classification as you as a PC user... People on a console wish for PC games for the same reason PC gamers wish for console games. A decent game has come out, you can't play it.
On the upside console->PC ports are more common than PC->Console ports, and if all else fails you can get emulators.

Emulators are shite, And ive had my fair share of bruises and broken bones thank you very much, though not from conversations such as this. I understand what your trying to say, but seriously if you think im the only one whos doing this then put on your binoculars because there are many more. In fact i was in the same position as young chuckles once and given the same thing. In fact i was labeled an idiot for even playing games on a pc. So why am i doing this? Because i felt i had to express my feelings about it, Im pretty much calmed down now so sorry if i was a complete dickhead back there but its how i felt about the situation.
People really dont have XP still? Jeez...I thought that was just my grandma =/ Not even a cracked version of it? >_< I had like, 2 of em then I just bought Vista...oh well, I can understand how you wouldn't want to purchase a new OS but I do suggest picking up Vista since well, its here to stay. But, I do think that they will patch it for 2000 too, so dont give up all hope(even though im still astonished at the fact that EA of all companies, isnt supporting it for 2000...or 98 =P )

Not any video card...basically any from the last 4 or 5 years though. My video card is complete shit and doesn't have pixel shader 2.0 so it can't play it, but I'm glad I'm upgrading this old computer soon.
