![]() ![]() If you’re looking for the best way to clean your MacBook display, then look no further than this tutorial. In the end, I think you’ll agree, there’s simply no reason to tolerate using a MacBook with a dirty screen. For years I used to struggle with cleaning my MacBook Pro display, but over the past few years I like to think I’ve finally perfected the screen-cleaning technique. "Well thank you very much.Although I love using the 16-inch MacBook Pro as my primary workhorse, one of the most frustrating things about using an Apple laptop is how easily the display gets dirty. Why don't you tell everybody a little bit about spore. With me is April Jones from electronic arts. And the release date is scheduled to be sometime this year. They announced that the long anticipated game spore from Will Wright and electronic arts ,was going to be out for the Mac. Video Transcript: Hi, this is Gary Rosenzweig with MacMost Now and the first day here at Macro there was a surprise announcement from electronic arts. ![]() Until next time, this is Gary Rosenzweig with MacMost Now. So if you're into real time strategy or you want to see what all the hype is about about the most anticipated game in years, go and check out Spore. And I was even able to switch to Windowed mode and check my email and surf the web while playing my game in another window without any problem. That's really something for a 1.0 version of a game that hasn't been patched yet. The game only crashed once in about ten hours of game play. Like, for instance, the creatures that you create are uploaded to a central server and may actually make appearances in other players' games.Īs a Mac game, I was really impressed by the stability. And there's this goal driven thing in the game where every level you're driven to accomplish the next goal and some parts of the game seem to tell you to stop and smell the roses, and other parts of the game are telling you to hurry up and get to the next part.Īnd there are a lot more details on this game that I'm not even going to get into here. Now, for casual gamers, it might be a little bit too complex. I was able to easily get through all the levels without any difficulty at the normal setting. Now, some problems with the game are that it may be too easy for hardcore gamers. There's a little anthem composer interface in there that's extremely easy to use to create a piece of music. For instance, in the fourth part when you're actually controlling your city and taking over the planet, you can modify your nation's national anthem. The game has a lot of hidden depth, as well. And the interface is extremely intuitive, considering that the game is very complex. Every little piece of it is a work of art every creature you create, the landscapes, the planets in outer space, everything. The game's two best assets are the interface and the graphics. You also use this interface to create outfits for your creatures, design the buildings in your city, the vehicles, the sea ships, the airplanes, and eventually, even the space ships. Then you continue to use it to modify your land creature in the next stage. At the beginning you use this to modify your single-celled life form. You create a space ship and then travel between the stars looking for a planet to colonize, invade, or to trade with.Īt the very heart of Spore is the creature creator. The fifth and final part of Spore puts you in outer space. This part's a little bit like the real time strategy games, such as Age of Empires or Rise of Nations. You also grow to take over other cities by force or influence and, eventually, the goal is to rule the entire planet. In the fourth stage you're in charge of an entire modern city. This plays a little bit like the original WarCraft game. At this point you're biological evolution is over and you concentrate on building on and expanding your tribe's influence. The third stage puts you in charge of a town of your creatures. ![]() You can make friends or just kill anything that gets in your way. You run around the landscape and eat plants or other animals. The second stage moves your creation onto land. It's really just a quick introduction to how you use the creature creator and how you move around. But it is visually rich and it can be challenging at times. This plays like a simple arcade game and doesn't last for too long. In this first stage here, you float around in a primordial ooze and eat and evolve. Well, the basic idea is you play a simple life form and make choices to help it evolve. This is the all-in-one game where you take a single-celled organism all the way through civilization up to colonizing the stars. And this is the successor to those games. Well, Spore is a long anticipated game from Will Wright, the creator or SimCity and the Sims. Let's take a look in this episode of MacMost Now. Well, Spore is finally here and it's on the Mac. ![]()
