I often blame EA for a lot of Maxis' failures. EA is seen as kind of an evil company to us gamers. They push games that are not ready out of the door when the developers still need time to work in them. Then if the game doesn't meet the fans' expectations, EA shifts the blame to the developers.

Spore actually could have been so much more. But unfortunately EA had to strip the game of things like the Aquatic Stage.

I loved the Sims and Spore and I wished that Spore could have had a sequel. But now chances if that are looking pretty dim.
