Yes, TFU will most likely have DRM if it's released for PC, but I've yet to hear of a release date, and TFU will sit on the consoles for several months before the game touches a PC. If it touches a PC, anyways.
It could remain console exclusive.
Balthazzar: Im not sure about restrictions in that matter in these forums, but in most non-specialized places, that post would lead to insta-lock.
Anyway, i played spore, and it was reallyl boring. I'd say the first and second stages are the best. Tribal is, well, simple. nothing special on it. Next stage, is ... crap. I have yet to lose a city, and it's way too easy to conquer your enemies in any way, no challenge. Space age... got me bored after a pair of hours of missions and such, and having to find a concrete system among a giant ring... not even a simple search system. If you're showing all system names from scratch, at least make a list. Or just show names of systems you explore.
It could have been much better than it actually is.
I heard a rumor that this game has become the most pirated game in history.. not sure though. I know that EA really shot themselves in the foot with this one.
