Tut tut so immature Ron...

Just realized, that the joke "gen Italia" also works in English. (eh, the Country)...made me laugh.

Greetings from Germany^^

no, it doesn´t work at all.

Problem #1: Italien is Italy in English and not Italia...
Problem #2: No English speaking person (due to the British qualifying mess) cares about Italy or the UEFA Championship right now...

Is it possible to create creatures with wooden legs and hooks? Otherwise I'm not going to download this crap.

Guilty as charged...maybe the plan is that ppl will get that out of their system using the creature creator before the game hits shelves...in any event spore looks like its going to be a great time killer :)

We've come a long way.  It used to be "time to crate."

Wow, I saw this picture in the link list earlier today, and the pixelation makes it approximately a thousand times more lurid. Well done.

hey look this page http://www.groggames.com.ar/en/mizero.php

I just downloaded the video and mini-game on the download page there... they should probably get an english person to do the translation to english. Right now, it's like they copied and pasted everything into babelfish.
"you want to have copyright issues, right?"

I just wonder if there's a giant vagina creature to go with the one you posted...

And by putting them on the same planet we could once and for all settle the answer to the question if men and women are supposed to live together...

Apparently not. A boob creature was flagged by EA as inappropriate. Aren't double standards fun or what?

http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/84575-EA-Says-Penises-Are-Fine-But-No-Boobs-Please

I'm not sure it's a case a double standards. It's probably more to do with a person being silly enough to upload and share an inappropriate creation on EA's Sporepedia.

That said, when the lead designer of the game (Alex Hutchinson) says...


...it makes you wonder about the sudden change of attitude. Maybe Maxis thought the above the EA though "oh no you don't!"

Nope. I don't see it.

Definitely shopped. I can tell because of the pixels.

ymmd :-)

nah, it's just a horrible grafics engine (that is a "retro game").

haha!

I can't wait to see a planet full of these things :D

YEEAAH baby!

I've made one myself. It even spits acid. Check it out: http://youtube.com/watch?v=3jvGnix6P-0

According to the bible, man is created in God's image, right? Well, when you make humans god the first thing they do is making giant dicks..... does this mean we're all a image of God's dick, in some way?

I dont get it.
I see thousands of penises and all, but no sign of a tree headed monkey...

Lame gamers....

I created purple tentacle

But of yes of course, first thing I made was genitalia :)

Why make genitalia when you can make animals that look like porn scenes?  :)

http://working-as-designed.blogspot.com/2008/06/user-created-content.html

Completely agree. we should emancipate from this retro way of thinking. Sex is part of life.

I haven't used the Sporn yet, but... I would have never done a sex-related image. And yes, that joke about God is VERY stupid.

Why...? Because you're scared that it's true? :D

Asside from the lessons we learn since we were born that say "making jokes with God is wrong" "Saying the F Word is bad" "saying the F word before God is wrong-bad", the joke is realy good. It actuly is not a joke, is a very plausible conclusion that makes a lot of sence.

Cool. Testis dentata!

NOT cool, in my opinion. It's really sad that you, Ron, are in that kind of things. I expected you to be smart and original enough not to create silly genitalia images.

I didn't create that image.

Oh, sorry... I'm just amazed how many people are obsessed with such things. By the way, are you planning to release DeathSpank this year or next?

DeathSpank's release date is "unannounced" at this point.

Yay! WE HAVE A RELEASE DATE!!! xD

You're a complete and total moron.

If you want to be mature about sex and genitalia and stuff, the first thing you should do would be acept this phenomenom normaly. After all, Porn IS FUN. You cant help it

Well, I'm not TOTALLY against sex and erotics. But if you get a device that supports hunderds of ideas and combinations, and the FIRST idea that comes to your mind is genitalia... This certainly is a noticeable fact.

well, they need to reproduce don't they? though a planet of only penises.. it do sounds contra productive.

..and penis = porn? some how something is very wrong there..

Well, I happen to think it's all rather hilarious. I'm particularly guilty as I made The Goatse Creature doing the rounds.

So to make up for my sins, have a Three Headed Monkey

NOW THATS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT!

All it needs now is some genitalia, in a very ofencive way to make it the Spore Masterpiece... Nothing could beat the greatness of such a creature...

I need to rinse my mind out before attempting a three headed money with a huge...ahem. Plus, he's great as he is!

Anyhow, after creating this NSFW monstrosity, I think I'm all wanged out.

Or maybe not...

Wow, nice  threee headed monkey. Where it can be downloaded?

I reckon the "penis phase" of Spore should peter out soon... at least I hope it will.

I imagine it's one of the reasons EA have released the Spore Creature Creator months ahead of the game.

BINGO!

I read a while ago that they plan to cancel any account that makes such creatures.

By the way, awesome three headed monkey you got there :)

Wasn't it supposed to be spore reproduction?

Wait... isn't this the entire point ?

Indeed!

The image is a brilliant piece of hystericly funny criticism on the hypocrisy of it all!

mmm if we try to fight it in hand to hand it will be stronger and bigger :P.. hand to swords my knights!

What lesson did we learn toda kids?
EA and probably most of the industry is REALY stupid...
I mean... If they think that bannint this kind of content is a good idea they are to have a huje trouble filtering all the big tsunami of vaginas and bal that will come....
There must always be a scape route for those kind of stuff. If you try to hold it all, its they are gona grow in number until they make pressure enough to break throug...

And I must say that the idea of penis monsters growing and breaking through is kind of scarry

You know you've linked to Zombo.com before, right? Unless this is a different but very similar Zombo.com.

Everyone needs a little Zombo.com now and then.

Word!

Hi guys it's-a me, Giorgio (from a far off and mystical land called "It'a-ly").

Just wanna make you see this, pure genius.

Sorry but... old and out of topic

Image removed...
Well done Ron!

Well done? It's impossible! No one was tired of looking at it!

Now the site is safe for work again. Thank goddess.

Aww I'm disappointed... Why remove it? It was funny, not offensive. Puritanism is the last thing I expected from Ron Gilbert... :)

Well, THAT's really cool!

Yesterday i realized the link between the Thriller video from Michael Jackson and MI2 ending...awesome!!!

Image removed - finally! Now I do not have to explain to everybody around what kind of site I'm on.

Censorship!?

Rally the internet! Fight for our right to view penises online!

why do I have the impression, that the background screens (or the human organs growing in the underground of Monkey Island) would be different if released in 2008.

Watch-a behind you:

Off topic:
http://www.101influential.com/ they definitely forget Guybrush :/

Guybrush is ok.
Now how could they miss JESUS?!?!?!?!? He should be #1!

By the way, it's called "101 most influential people who NEVER LIVED". So Jesus is not suitable for that list.

Please tell me we're not getting in this kind of discussion.

There isn't one piece of historical evidence that Jesus was a real person, and no, you can't count the bible since that's what we're trying to verify in the first place.

I actully do think Jesus existed, but you know, it is always fun to make those angry catholics get angryer...

And what's your opinion on Jesus and religion in general? (Calm down! We're not getting into that kind of discussion, just wanna know Ron's opinion).

OK, sorry, I'm taking my brass knuckles right now...

I don't see Ron's wise act of removing the image as censorship... Serioulsy, it was a realy ugly picture, and it was very disturbing to look at it everytime I came to his site...

It's not censorship if you decide you remove something from your own site for your on reasons.  No one told me or pressured me to remove it.  I was just sick of looking at it.

That's what I was saying... I am acutuly the guy who said "well done ron"

I can still see the tip.

So you log on, and it's there, and you stare at it.

You strange, strange man.



Actually I know what you mean.

I was thinking the same thing about Blast Works, which is a new game for Wii that has a really deep editor for making spaceships and enemies and stuff.  

It has a website anyone can upload to or download from.  I'd hate to be the guy whose job it is to reject penis-shaped spaceships 8 hours a day.  That has to be truly horrifying.

But all good spaceships are penis shaped!

2 words... Millennium Falcon

hahaha, touché!

First off, Vagina = http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQ-kfKNQg3o

The number of videos of penises and vaginas posted on youtube is staggering and a little saddening.  And that is why I will make up for my low-brow-ness by posting this link as well.  http://kotaku.com/5017806/spore-creature-creator-spawns-xbox-360-controller

Dude I must thank you for the golden nugget: ZOMBOCOM.

"Everyone needs a little Zombo.com now and then." is true, and I was living my life unfullfilled and unaware of this website before..

I swear I will return the favour some day!

And by the way I'm drinking lingonberry GROG right now!

wolfs paw (vargtass)? ;)

Hey Ron,

With your connections in the gaming industry do you think you could pass the message along to Blizzard to STOP HURTING MY BRAINZ.

LOL that picture is so gross:)

sooo I guess they'r renameing the game; seed, now then?

THANK YOU for ZOMBO.COM - yoga and special voodoo technics are forgotten now.

greetings from vienna - austria, the city of the pirates party!!!
