Launch errors [2000] and [1004] bought off Steam

[zebrawins]

Bought Spore off Steam a few hours ago and when I attempt to launch it says "Configuration script failed. [2000]"  "Could not find a needed package. The data directory is missing or corrupt. [1004]". Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Try going into the game library tab > right click on spore > repair files

 Verify Integrity of Game Cache under Local Files is what it's called sorry not repair :P

I have tried validating but it does not work.
