    When all is said and done, Spore Hero Arena just fails to keep one's attention.

    Spore Hero Arena, however, doesn’t have many redeeming features at all. Yes, it attempts a 3D creature creator, but it’s meaningless when you consider the game where it’s been placed. Poor adventuring and even worse fighting can’t save this game.

    Spore Heroes Arena is a very uninspiring title that has a repetitive fighting engine and tedious exploration. It definitely does not live up to the Spore brand.

    I don't know what it would take to make a game of Spore's scope on the DS, but I know it requires an entirely different approach than the lamentably simplistic Spore Hero Arena.

This spinoff was very horrible the graphics look like a 4 year old game drew them.The fighting engine is crap.I can't really talk much about the wifi since hardly nobody gets one it and I have to take my word on it.Since I always get error code 51300 I can't talk much about it.EA and Maxis should of think about it making this game since it's a pile of crap.Now I do try to fine decent stuff in my reviewers but I can't I mean the ONLY part about this game was good is the Bio powers and the controls but it's so minor that this should even deserve a star not even one.Please avoid this game this game will haunt you Maxis should be ashamed of themselves this game gets a 0/10 titled (MOST HORRIBLE GAME EVER AND SHOULD NEVER EXIST)… Full Review »
