'''The Grox Empire'''
== Will Wright as Designer ==


I think it may be misleading saying that Spore was designed by Will Wright. In actuality there were many designers on the game as you can see by the credits: http://www.mobygames.com/game/windows/spore_/credits


{{reflist}}
It didn't seem apropriate as I remembered reading this article:
http://www.gamasutra.com/php-bin/news_index.php?story=12700
Wright says in the article: "I’m just one cog in this big team. I want to give people insight into how design gets distributed. I brought my main designers from the team, each looks at the game from a different way."

Maybe a better solution is to say "Will Wright was the Chief Designer of Spore", or "Spores concept was envisioned by Will Wright". I don't want to change it if anyone feels it wouldn't be beneficial.

:I think it is OK how it is now. People won't think he was the only designer of the game and others were just coders... [[User:Peter.Hozak|Peter.Hozak]] ([[User talk:Peter.Hozak|talk]]) 20:25, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

== More Details ==

I'm going to the reference afterward, can anyone else elaborate on the existence of Earth and the Solar System in the galaxy?

P.S. There really out to be a Sportal (Spore-+-portal), or at least one for games of similar nature, genre, etc. [[Special:Contributions/67.246.11.71|67.246.11.71]] ([[User talk:67.246.11.71|talk]]) 20:10, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
:There is a Spore Wiki which I was once fairly active on. The Solar system and Earth do exist in the game, in a fixed position in every player's galaxy, and the planets are, other than their names and layouts, essentially the same as every other system in the game. Meaning everything can be colonised except for the gas planets. <font color="#800080"><i>Avnas Ishtaroth</i></font> <b><sub><font color="#B048B5">[[User_talk:Schwarzes_Nacht|drop me a line]]</font></sub></b> 12:26, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
::It is actually [http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Sol Sol] system in the game. A lot of people found Earth - look at someone's achievements page [http://www.google.sk/search?q=site%3Aspore.com%2Fview%2Fachievements+Manifest+Destiny+Find+Earth].

== Original Research ==

[[Spore (2008 video game)#Evolution vs. intelligent design in Spore|This section]] of the article appears to draw a conclusion regarding where the game falls in the evolution vs. intelligent design debate. I propose that the first sentence be merged into the preceding Scientific accuracy section and the remaining text be deleted. [[User:Dansiman|'''<font color="#AA9933">D<font color="#716622">a<font color="#393311">n<font color="#000000">si</font>m</font>a</font>n</font>''']] (<font color="#aa9933">[[User_Talk:Dansiman|talk]]</font>|<font color="#aa9933">[[Special:Contributions/Dansiman|Contribs]]</font>) 09:25, 2 March 2009 (UTC)
:I edited that section - i hope second part is now just logical conclusion, not original research. [[User:Peter.Hozak|Peter.Hozak]] ([[User talk:Peter.Hozak|talk]]) 23:10, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

== Non-hostile epic creatures? ==

In [[Spore_(2008_video_game)#Creature|Creature]] section, there is a new suggestion, that epic creatures are not always hostile and can be befriended. I cannot verify that, so added{{fact}}. If this won't be sourced, I suggest to revert the change. [[User:Peter.Hozak|Peter.Hozak]] ([[User talk:Peter.Hozak|talk]]) 20:16, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

== Remove intelligent design section ==

I think that we should remove the intelligent design section because it does little more than to restate what is in another section. [[Special:Contributions/76.193.177.214|76.193.177.214]] ([[User talk:76.193.177.214|talk]]) 23:56, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

== Fan Reception ==

Theres currently a section on fan reception EG Metacritic score... now many game articles in the past have rejected fan reception, considering it unrealiable due to strong bias for and against... so why do we have one here?
