Do we know yet if you can install it on more than one machine?

good point I'll have to try that, I know you could with the creature creator.
As a "try-before-you-buyer" I have to admit that I think you're right. I never try a game and constantly slate it within about five minutes, regardless of the fact I just got it for free, but I think a lot of people who downloaded it are doing just that. Maybe to justify not buying it while they secretly play more of it it, maybe?There's not as much incentive when you pick it up for free...I think a lot of people here don't seem to be giving the game a chance. That's how it seems to me anyway.

I have 4xAA/16xAF in drivers and it works 100%.Just read it doesn't support Antialiasing! Nooooooooooooo...

Why would you bother doing that? If I'd obtained a game illegally and liked it, I'd simply say "hey, it's pretty good - definitely worth buying". If that encourages other people to pay for the game then you can probably sleep at night knowing that you've encouraged game sales.

Erm, because I'm honest? If you download something and like it, it's worth buying isn't it.
Installing my legit copy of Spore now and deleting my downloaded copy.![]()
Well my spore arrived and installed without any problems BUT I cannot log into my
spore account from within the game. Its looking like there are server problems at EA
Is anyone else having this problem?.

You've misunderstood my post.
If you're going to not pay for the game and want to hide that fact/feel guilty, there are far better ways to do it than slate the game you stole.
