Two Spore Expansion Packs Announced
Additions to the Newly Release EA Title Already
If you are a big fan of Spore as many people seem to be you will be happy to hear that Electronic Arts has already announced the release of two expansion packs for the highly addicting simulation game.
This is pretty amazing considering the game has only been out for a matter of weeks, and I am sure some gamers are only just making their way through all the content that came with game out of the box.
Spore is unique because of all the customization options and upgrades it offers to players. This type of content makes it pretty easy for a publishing company to offer additional functionality to their games to keep player engrossed to keep gaming.

Fallout 3 the Latest Victim of Piracy
Fallout 3 Falls Victims to the Pirates
Bethesda Software is one of the latest companies to feel the sting of piracy on their newest title Fallout 3. Weeks before the games release there was a link posted on a torrent site to a 6.5gb download for the game for the Xbox360.
It is surprising to most that the pirated version of this game was the xbox versions which is leading some to believe it was due to a leak at one of the manufacturing plants that is printing the games.
Bethesda has already begun sending cease and desist letters to torrent sites asking them to take the game down, but we all know once it is out there it can’t be stopped.
It’s somewhat ironic that this occurred soon after I published an article about EndWar’s complaints on piracy, but I do plan to show my support for this amazing title by purchasing my copy along with the majority of gamers out there.
