So, after the whole Spore shenanigans I thought I'd educate you all. It's actually more interesting and important than you think, as it's goes past Spore. Hell, Spore is only the start. You can realise just how corrupt everyone is when it comes to money. Here's what's going on:
You may not know that Amazon had a "glitch" where all of the Spore reviews (around 500 negative, averaging 1 star) were removed from the site. Unlike Amazon, Game are not having a "glitch" but seem to be openly censoring reviews.
Metacritic, the most important review site out there, were also at one stage censoring user reviews. This is odd as Metacritic aren't directly affected by the sales. They have now fixed this, but that's big. REALLY BIG. Metacritic is one of the most respected sites out there when it comes to reviews so there's no doubt that Spore creators didn't like it.
What I've found to be most shocking is this:

Yes, you read that correctly. If you mention DRM on the OFFICIAL forums EA hit the killswitch on your game. I think that this is unacceptable. No wonder piracy rates are so high when opinions are censored and customers are treated as criminals for buy a game at a higher price than average.
Trust no one.
