Sporepedia: 350,000 And Counting

I say this because, having just popped on to have a little browse on the Sporepedia, I see there are already over 350,000 creatures on there, a number that’ll already be higher by the time you read this. Really, 350,000? Don’t you all have, like, jobs? [Sporepedia] More »
