Cars

Buy a used car. The most expensive miles on a car are the first 10,000. Let someone else drive those for you. Buying used can save a lot of money considering how little value the car has actually lost.
Exactly. Who buys new cars? Rich people, people who want to look rich, and... well, that's about it.

I like history. Or politics. Or political history. I love to see the reasons why something was done, the reasoning, the way small decisions affect everything... it's beautiful. Even if at the time it was ugly, in hindsight, it is beautiful.

The Truth

I thought it would be quick. 30 minutes for cell stage it took. 2 hours and a bit for creature. ANd it wasn't that fun...
It was so worth it.

Creature Stage

So. Creature is my favourite stage. I almost always do cell first, because it takes minutes and gets you omnivore's special ability (if you want it, which I do). You get to summon a flock of critters to help you attack and befriend. So, so cool. The ultimate.
Why is creature the best? Because in creature stage, you control you, plus your pack. You can zoom in, become one, or just watch your creature from weird/awesome angles.
Now excuse me, I have to go play...

The Kirgles are demanding tribute. I should do some of their missions, it'll shut them up... At some point I need to plant this colony. Is spice being wasted by lacking storage? And who will buy my stuff...
Spore. By the time you get to space age, it's very realistic. There's always something to do: once you've finished everything else, you need to collect spice from your colonies/planets. By the time you've done that, there'll be something else to do, guaranteed. That's why I prefer the creature stage...

Shintolin

Shintolin.

It's a great game. In my opinion, of course. It's set in an era when humanity has only just stopped being a nomadic race. So far it's stone-age-ish, but with the promise of metallurgy to come. Agriculture is going well, and most of the world is at peace. For now...
