Are you gonna wait, or you gonna get it ASAP?

I doubt it. Been trying to get hyped up to get a new computer lately but haven't seen anything that's demanded my money yet the way this one did when it was new. Once I see Spore on the shelves and there is a finally answer on its tech requirements, maybe I'll start hearing those "buy me, buy me" voices. Since the buzz has become capable of doing more than just inflating paper bags, I've started to embrace the idea of the game. So I do expect to either buy it or place it on my Christmas list once it hits the market. But I do still need to see it on shelves with my own eyes before I'm fully comfortable it really exists.

I'm going to get it IMMEDIATELY!
I already waited, and I've waited long enough lol

I'm gonna wait. The SporeCC has kept me really interested with the game, I can get a discount off the full version too, but I'm not 100% sure I want it..

Until the "Buy meeee" thing starts, and if Wes finally cracks it even more than he is now, Its on hold ;)

I don't have a computer I can run it on at the moment, so I'll probably camp out in my best freind's house and play with her. Once I fix my computer if I can afford it after Apartment Life, then I'll buy it.

I might hold off and see if anyone's computer's blow up. If all is well I'll go buy a copy. I've been happily keeping SecuRom off my PC though... so I'm nervous.

I certainly hope so--I feel like I've been waiting for this game for years, and I'm not sure I have the patience to wait any longer than I absolutely have to.

I wish I could, but after I just bought a new computer so I could play the sims and spore, I only have enough for AL. I'll wait for christmas.

I've already pre-ordered the game and I'm anxiously awaiting it's release.

Go to this site to see if your system can run it.

It will show how your system passes :) or fails :( the minimum requirements

I've tried your link here several times and keep getting



"Server Busy! Please "refresh" your browser to try again
System Requirements Lab servers have alot of traffic at the moment.
We apologize for any inconvenience.

Time of day doesn't seem to matter.

Very odd. I just went there moments ago with no problem. It might be a browser issue??? I use Internet Explorer, if you're using the same then there's something weird going on.
This is the same site but has a different URL
http://www.systemrequirementslab.com

The original URL was the one I had bookmarked which might not work for you

No. I might buy it later, if nobody has any major problems, but I don't trust SecuROM. I've already had problems with it in the past.

Get the CD version then, they mentioned in the chat that Securom is only on the Digital Downloader games.

EDIT: Wait, nevermind. I got confused and thought this was about Apartments. Ignore the Psycho behind the curtain...

I'd get it--then my computer would die with TS2 and 5 other EPS (not including AL) and Spore (which is 6GB!). So yeah, I'll wait.

The SecuROM thing has cooled my enthusiasm considerably. I'm not really hyped at all at the moment. I'll see what people say first.

I'm not sure if I'll get it. It does look interesting, but I think TS is more my type of game. I love all the pretty clothes and furniture. Spore is more silly and fun, I think. But maybe I'll give it a try. :)
