Yesterday, Electronic Arts Inc. and Maxis announced that Spore would be hitting the shelves some time in September. The first release will include the PC, Macintosh, Nintendo DS, and mobile versions of the game.

The Wii version is in in the design stage right now, and will not come at the same time of PC, Macintosh, Nintendo DS, and mobile version’s release. Right now the developers are mainly concerned with the “core version”, and the Wii version is not their top priority.


The DS and mobile version of the game will be called Spore Creatures
When asked about the Nintendo DS version of the game, Spore Executive Producer, Lucy Bradshaw said “DS players will be able to share stuff with DS players via local network and Wi-Fi.” The PC and Mac versions of the game are like five games in one, the Nintendo DS version of the game focuses on the “Creature” portion of the main game, hence why it’s called Spore Creatures.
The Nintendo DS version of the game will also encompass the core aspects of what Spore is about Creativity, Exploration, and Evolution. The Nintendo DS version will also include more of a quest than its PC counterpart
The North American release is set to be during the weekend of September 7. The European release date of PC, Macintosh, Nintendo DS, and Mobile versions of the game is currently set at September 5th.

We’re finally getting some more information on the new Call of Duty title. Very few new details(if you can call them that); we now know that the next Call of Duty title will shoot it’s way to the Wii, PS2, Xbox 360, PS3, and personal computer.
I don’t think Activision can release a Call of Duty 5 without leaving those living in the Nintendo-only universe dazed and confused, oh wait it was release on the Nintendo DS. I can’t help but think that Nintendonians will feel like they weren’t invited to last years Christmas party; some may hold a grudge and not go to this years party, will others will just be happy they were invited this year shindig. There’s only one way for Activision to combat this, branch of into anther sub-franchise or give it a subtitle, like all franchise inevitably transform due to cross-platform issues; Medal of Honor, Burnout, Hitman, Splinter Cell, Rainbow Six, Ghost Recon, Tony Hawk, Brothers in Arms, Mario Bros., Twisted Metal, Sonic, Battlefield, and Mega Man, to name a few.
Activision is also telling us that the Tony Hawk franchise will heading in a “new direction” (maybe not as different of a direction Tony himself was talking about).
