The [i]Spore Creature Creator[/i] was released as standalone product in [i]2008-06[/i] for people to populate the [i]Sporepedia[/i] with (this turned out to be huge success). The creature creator is not a game in itself, but only the part that allows creating the creatures (like the name implies). Released as both free (with only fourth of the body parts available) and commercial version, the latter allowed people to get a discount on the final game when it got released.***[b]2008-06-25[/b] — "More than one million wild and wonderful lifeforms created using the Spore Creature Creator in the first week."

* Tide Pool Phase
Fight with other creatures and consume them to adjust the form and abilities of your creature. It's survival of the fittest at the most microscopic level.

* Creature Phase
Venture onto land and help your creature learn and evolve with forays away from your nest. The only way to grow is by taking chances!

* Tribal Phase
Instead of controlling an individual creature, you are now caring for an entire tribe. Give them tools and guide their interactions as you upgrade their state of existence.

* Civilization Phase
Once your city is established, your creatures begin seeking out and interacting with other cultures. Make contact with an olive branch or a war cry. The goal for your creatures is to conquer the planet.

* Space Phase
The time has come to move on to other worlds in your solar system. Make contact, colonise, or terraform, then venture further to find other solar systems. A 'mission' structure provides new goals in your quest for galactic dominance.

Super Mario 64 author2015 Linuxlabelminimizeminimize
Super Mario 64  Nintendo1996Super Mario 64, fue el videojuego que todo niño esperó con ansias el año 1996. Aún recuerdo la sorpresa que me provocó el verlo en pantalla gigante. Un videojuego sensacional, la música, los gráficos, la historia, la dinámica, sencillamente genial, y si a eso añades, la información técnica que hoy tenemos, te sorprende más aún que hayan logrado tal juego, con las características y limitaciones de la Nintendo 64.

Lo jugué hasta terminarlo, al menos en 3 ocasiones.

Super Mario 64 was the video game that every child looked forward to in 1996. I still remember the surprise that seeing it on a giant screen caused me. A sensational video game, the music, the graphics, the story, the dynamics, simply great, and if you add to that, the technical information that we have today, it surprises you even more that they have achieved such a game, with the characteristics and limitations of the Nintendo 64.

I played it through to completion, at least 3 times.***

[27]***It's up to you to assist Mario as he restores peace at Mushroom Castle. Bowser is up to no good again -- stealing the Power Stars that shield the castle. Bob-ombs live inside the paintings decorating the castle and Bowser has invaded them. Mario will have to enter the painting world, retrieve the Power Stars and halt Bowser before he turns the Bob-ombs into a monster militia. This one-player game for the Nintendo 64 raises the bar for video game excitement. Bowser is no competition for Mario 64.***Mario steps into a whole new dimension in this unforgettable launch title of the Nintendo 64. Unravel the secrets of Peach's castle, find all 120 stars and defeat Bowser in this cult classic that set the rules for all 3D action games.

Although it managed to stay faithful to the spirit of the series, Super Mario 64 tried a new approach as it brought the concept of exploration into platform games. Mario gained many new moves in the process, yet remained as easy to control as ever thanks to the inclusion of an Analog stick on the Nintendo 64 controller. This innovation quickly became a standard in the industry. Super Mario 64 is often cited as one of the greatest games ever made.***Super Mario 64 was the first games for Nintendo 64. Since the company came out with the original Nintendo, with it's first game Mario Bros, it's only logical that the company would come out with a Mario Bros game for their new system. You may have noticed that everytime Nintendo came out with a new system/platform, they came out with a Mario game to go with it. Well, Mario 64 is Nintendo's N64 game.
This game works good on the UltraHLE emu, if you have a decent processor and a Graphics accelerator (or just an EXTREMELY fast processor, but even then, it's still good to have a graphics accelorator). But of course, it works better on the real Nintendo 64. At least, I thought it looked better on mine, as my opinion.

Super Mario 64 revolutionized 3D gaming with its expansive environments, colorful graphics, fluid play control, and myriad puzzles. Although many 3D platformers have come and gone, few have lived up to the standards set by Super Mario 64.

Super Mario 64 Shindou Pack Taiou Version  Nintendo1997Re-release in Japan that adds Rumble Pak support as well as English voices that weren't available in the original Japanese release.***Shindou means vibrations/tremors in Japanese, so my guess is that this is just this is just Mario 64 with Rumble Pack support?

Tasty Planet Dingo Games2011Play as a tiny life form constructed of bacterium and other stuff; designed as a sentient spec to clean dirt from bathrooms. But, you can eat almost anything smaller than you (not just dirt) and eating makes you grow. There's initially no upper limit to your size but, colliding with anything you cannot eat will make you smaller in proportion to how hard it strikes. For instance, you cannot eat a speeding bullet or a laser beam (until these things are too small to be seen). Linuxlabelminimizesubject
