The Conduit Pax Demo

A demo video of The Conduit at PAX.

Shows ASE, and Mr. Ford's death at the end.

[TheColbertinator]

Bad quality camera but The Conduit looks good so far.

[Bombibomb]

Surprisingly good for a Wii game.

[vashivihang]

looks effin great despite bad quality. AI seems improved too

[nbsmatambo]

is that running on a wii =o

AMAZING!

[ChickeyCantor]

Ai improved?
You do realize that AI is always stupid when they demonstrate something.
Its called a walktrough not a get-shot-in-your-face-every-2- seconds XD

[vashivihang]

remember taht PAX is a gamers converntion so they probably wouldnt set the demo to easy to make journalists feel better about themselves. remember how when the player went inside that hole and the enemies followed them instead of waiting for the player to come out?

[ChickeyCantor]

No i meant: That you said the AI has improved.
But in the first few (Developers)walktrough the AI is always Stupid.
Not talking about this video i was talking about the older video's by developers.

i think the AI was already at this level, thats what im trying to say.

[vashivihang]

cures the hypnotic power of misunderstanding

[candystop]

Not bad Nintendo! This game looks on par if not better then RFOM1 visuals which is a big step wow.

[ps360s]

but this game looks great for the Wii

[El_Colombiano]

Resistance? Bah, please. This game is amazing on Wii, I will admit. But doesn't hold a candle to ANY real next gen game.

[Bombibomb]

It kinda looks like Halo 3 with a better frame rate.

[eclipsegryph]

To El_Colombiano:

Perhaps you should stop spouting tired old shameful rhetoric such as "next gen" and "real" games, and enjoy the fact that The Conduit looks to be a promising first person shooter experience on the Wii with great graphics, controls and gameplay.

Your "next gen" isn't going to happen for a few more years, so you might as well enjoy the good games that are coming out for this current generation of consoles.

[snoopgg]

give me some, cause I'm not seeing what your eyes are seeing. Are you wearing some special glasses that Nintendo packages with the wii to make their console look like it has Resistance graphics.I bet it looks better then Killzone2 when your wearing them, right? What a joke, play this generic Fps, while I play Resistance 2, Frycry, Killzone 2, Socom, Call of Duty 5 and all the others on a superior machine.

[Nugan]

So, wait, Conduit is a generic FPS, but the sequels you listed aren't?

At least The Conduit is a new title with a fresh control style and not another entry in a tired franchise.

[Hostile]

Looking good for the Wii..

[xionpunk]

Why aren't there more games like this on wii?

[TheColbertinator]

The casuals never seem to buy them.

The truth too much money is tied up in the HD market. Lots of big companies posted in the red this year. I'm sure they are thinking that jumping ship would be to drastic and a slow roll to the Wii is the best way. This is why you will see smaller companies adjust and add things that the bigger guys can not because they simply can not trust the Wii audience to be loyal to a game that is not fun. I mean really many HD gamers are only playing these games because they look good not because they play good.

This is what can happen when you don't have a dictator looking over your shoulder. Remember when Lucas arts said they where pissed about the Motion+ stuff well they should be simply because the execs let go of most of their staff. That is their fault smaller companies tend to hold on to talent rather than just dump them. It's not ok to add some thing costly to a publisher to a game at the last minute. I mean bloom blox had head tracking but wait that would make it expensive to produce. The same way motion+ is expensive if you already have stuff working for the budget title your making.

I was waiting for them to say this because nintendo always support people that put lots of work into their games. Yes that does mean figuring out lots of stuff on your own some times LOL.

wow smooth frame rate......look what can be done on wii...this makes alot of other wii games look embarrassing.

[Snipes20]

Logo for HVS alone makes a lot of Wii games look embarrassing!

[Durffen]

Take this visuals, use a dual layered disc and you could have a good looking game packed with ton's of content.

I don't get why dev's don't use dual layered discs for Wii. Smash Bros did, and look at how much content that game had.

[KeiZka]

They fear loading times? I see no other plausible explanation (well, ok, the DL discs are maybe half a dollar more expensive. Not even that probably.).

[ChickeyCantor]

Loading times?
But just a small segment is loaded into the Ram?
Not the whole disc.
But was it said they don't use duel?

edit: i was asking you >_<

[KeiZka]

I didn't say it was a plausible explanation... heh.

[Horny]

how are the graphics so amazing to use guys, you walk through a bunch of square hallways, theres ps2 and x box shooters that look better. I guess its good compared to crap wii has been getting.

[blockhead1700]

why do people say they are going to go play there consoles games like Call of Duty 5 when it is not even out yet, plus it will be on the wii itself fool...(left to go kick Master Chief in the nuts)

[vashivihang]

people say theyll play some real fps (r2, killzone2, codwaw). they all look generic to me. you know, shades of brown and brown only.

atlest conduit has got more colour than your real fpss

[N4g_null]

It's about using the controller to spray people down. You've done it on the PC and you want to do it on a console. If your are a FPS fan then this could almost be duke nukem 2 and it would be fun just because your aim is better.

After play metroid and res evil Wii you start to see why people are excited about these controls. It's just going to be more natural which equals more skill making it into your performance online rather than lucky joystick sprays and spams.

[Product]

The controls make this game.
