Darkspore Skar
In December 2008,
Spore
sold over a million units in its first month. While it was an
over-the-top commercial success,
Spore
hardly pleased the critics or turned into the kind of IP Electronic
Arts hoped it could mine for success. That is, until now.
Darkspore,
Spore’s
unlikely spin-off – an action RPG set in a sci-fi universe
with hefty co-op and PvP elements.
Darkspore
brings what Spore so desperately needed, a tighter, lighter context,
and one apart from the sideshow of penis-shaped monsters.
