Starcraft created in Spore

September 30th 2008 03:54
Terran starcraft created in Spore

Though the reviews of Spore have been middling, with most people disappointed in the light gameplay, there's no denying that the game gives you unprecedented control over the control of your creatures and their civilization.


In Korea, though, they're still mad about Starcraft, an old PC game that's flowered into a national sport. You'll see it on TV, with the best players sporting ads and escaping huge packs of screaming girls.

They love Starcraft so much that a Korean gamer bought Spore, then used the creature editor to replicate Starcraft units and buildings.

That's a picture of a Terran base, identical in details, with the exception that the game looks a lot brighter and cheerier. Considering that the Civ level of Spore is an RTS, seeding your world with Terrans and Zergs would essentially lead to a recreation of the entire Starcraft game within Spore.

Whoa - that's too much for me to think about.

And apparently, it's not even that rare - YouTube has a large selection of Starcraft creatures created in Spore, like the Marine:




I still can't get over the amount of time required. Especially to make something like the Goliath, which is so faithful to the original game that it's frightening.
