4.0 out of 5 stars Nice Artbook and Guide, Misleading Box Art, December 28, 2008

I bought this at Gamestop, thinking it had the game with it as well. Turns out it's just the guide and artbook. How misleading could something be? It had the ESRB rating on it, system requirements, and, on the back, read "One Game of Evolution, Two Species of Books!". Looked and sounded an AWFUL lot like it contained the game as well. I wish I would have known better. Fortunately, the stock image clarifies that it's JUST the artbook and guide, and DOESN'T contain the game as well. Buy it online to avoid disappointment.

I recently got this bundle for my self, well aware of what I was getting. It was heavier then I expected, but that's ok.

If you own the Galactic Edition of Spore (as I do), then you'll notice a lot of similarities between the art book that comes with the Galactic Edition, and The Evolution that comes with this bundle. Similar, but they're not the same. The art book is just that, an art book, while The Evolution talks more about the development of the game and has more pictures to look through.

The guide wasn't bad either. Spore really isn't a complicated game and is easy to figure out, but there may have been a few things you might have missed that are covered in the guide. It's a nice addition.
