Ok. I bought the new Spore game, and it turns out that i kneed a dvd rom drive to play it. this was not shown on the system requirements, or any where. I had to call Coustomer Support just to find out why the fuck it wasnt working! i had a busy signal for thirty minutes! I want to get compansated for time and money, but i lost the recipt.

Ok people, heres more on the situation. my computer runs on XP and we got it in the month it came out. It did not have a DVD/Cd rom choice. I agree, it is time to upgrade to Mac, but this is america, in a resession...it means no extra money for computers...i am getting a mac when they next release updates.

OMFG

What does this have to do with having a Mac?

The requirement right on the box says you need a Windows or Macintosh computer and a DVD-ROM drive.
How are you still complaining? Seriously.


it means when i bought my comp, it did not have cd/dvd rom drives for sale with it. now all comps do.

DVD drives are relatively cheap, it is generally a safe assumption that a computer capable of playing modern games will have one.

The fact that yours does not may indicate that it is deficient in more ways than just lacking a DVD drive.

I'm looking at the box right now and it clearly says dvd-rom on the cover. Right by the rating.

It's an awesome game!

I understant its an awesome game, the reviews told me that when i bought it! IT DID NOT TELL ME TO HAVE A DVD-ROM DRIVE!

Yeah a lot of games on dvd now. It's easy to buy one off newegg and install a dvd drive.
ManiacPenguins Posted at 6:15 pm on Dec. 20, 2008
That's not fail.

If it's a PC-DVD game, then why the fuck would it not require a DVD rom drive?
