New Official Conduit Boxart?

Looks like Amazon got the latest box art for The Conduit, and what looks to be a massive improvement over what it was before.

[avantgarde84]

Wow looks much much better than before.

[nintendohomie]

New cover ftw!!!!

[mint royale]

I need this, Madworld and Deadly Creatures. Man I need to stop being a student!

[SinnedNogara]

I hope the T rating turns out to be a M rating!!

[avantgarde84]

I pretty sure Sega and High Voltage have both stated it as being Teen rated.
Would not having an M rating be a major deal breaker?

[ChickeyCantor]

I see no reason for it to go M.
Seriously, wouldnt add anything different to it now would it?

They could basically turn it to "m" if they use one or 2 bad words.

[SinnedNogara]

@avangarte84

I read a interview that stated that the team wouldn't mind a M rating. Personally I would want a M rating just to give the game a large sense of "seriousness" and "darkness" to add to the whole alien invasion scene. I wouldn't mind a T rating though.

[avantgarde84]

Compare to the old one, the new one is vastly better

It is def. an improvement and by looking at it you know what the game is about which is what the important thing is........

but those glasses have to go.

[ChickeyCantor]

Wait wasn't that one just a mock-up?

[avantgarde84]

You could be right but im really glad that they went the way they did with this boxart.

Better than Madworld imo.

[nintendohomie]

hahahaha now that you say something those glasses make Ford look like Cyclops from the X-Men movies :P

[ChickeyCantor]

Exactly i said the same thing,
Actually the one with the orange glasses make him look more like Cyclops. His face in this image is a bit more " older ".

[PeptoBismol]

what's the release date for this game?

[avantgarde84]

Amazon says June 23rd

[PeptoBismol]

^
thanks

[Polluted]

It looks a bit better than the one that's linked a few comments above, but it still sort of looks like arse, imo.

Well maybe that's a bit harsh, but it's not great by any means.

[jay2]

I love it.

[deno]

Have mine pre-ordered already. Quiet excited about this game to be honest.

[pcz]

it looks really '90's. tacky. it looks like the cover for a game that thinks it's cool, rather than a mature game. somebody needs to tell the artist 'less is more'

[hatchimatchi]

my thought exactly

it looks like an ad from a nintendo power magazine from back in the early 90's.

"NOW YOU'RE PLAYING WITH POWER!"

[ChickeyCantor]

" it looks really '90's"
And thus making it awesome.

[mastiffchild]

As long as ot works online I'll be hugely happy. I can't see the SP topping MP3 so anything other than less lag than W@W or MoH is a bonus.

Still worried that level design will be where the SP fails but if they get us fighting in the White House they'll be OK! Artstyle won't suit everyone either with the neons and browns but as they're giving us more effects than usual why moan?

Just lets hope this sells, works and we all play it. Wii needs a real online MP FPS to show how it CAN be done and though the box art shouldn't worry us I'm very concerned about the taste of ANYONE who thinks those glasses are in any way "cool". They could well stop casuals from picking this up.

[jagstatboy]

More top notch FPS is what the Wii needs. I only wish it used MotionPlus.

[Product]

HVS has stated that Motion Plus adds nothing for this game and they felt it was just being tacked on to say they are using it......so they scrapped it. The melee attack is the only motion control really in the game besides pointing and even the melee attack can be switched to a button press if the player likes instead of motion.

[SinnedNogara]

I kept thinking when I heard Kevin Periera say "It would be good for first-person shooters". I was thinking, since the thing can sense anything you did; wouldn't sniping with MotionPlus really suck?? You move a little bit and your screwed.

I didn't really care for MotionPlus, just WiiSpeak.

[pcz]

haha exactly! the art makes me cringe a bit actually

[avantgarde84]

haha i completely forgot about Nintendo Power's slogan.

Playing with power.....classic.

[TruthbeTold]

Pow-er!

Wow. Brings back memories. :)

[nintendohomie]

Doesnt look that bad to me dont know what you girls are talking bout.

It could be worse.......im looking at you Metroid Prime 3

[ChickeyCantor]

Lol it seems someone is on a disagree riot...

[pcz]

i think the box art should reflect/represent the game, If the conduit box art reflects the game..i'm quite worried.

''it looks really '90's, And thus making it awesome.''

this is the really bad 90's stuff im talking about haha 'cowabunga dude!'.. that bad

[ChickeyCantor]

" i think the box art should reflect/represent the game, If the conduit box art reflects the game..i'm quite worried. "

Right, Metroid prime 3 has an ugly boxart but was it a good game? F*ck yes.

It isn't bad at all, actually i like the use of colours, Red in the background(warm colors), Blue in the front(cold colors). I don't think it looks bad at all. The Dynamic composition is well done imo.
It reflects what it is, a game. I have seen far worse box arts, but that doesn't tell much about the gameplay itself.

You can be worried al you want, but this game got nothing but praise( maybe one or 2 negatives but the majority is really happy with this game).

It did indeed remind me of the 90's but, honestly, that is also the reason why i like this art way more.

Also don't diss the turtles, they are ninja turtles...Ninja's.

[TriforceLightning]

Nuff said.

[Shoko]

It looks good, mainly due to the coloring, but something seems off. I think it should look more serious, but like I said, the coloring is great.

[pcz]

The nintendo first party box art (for wii games) has been consistently lame. But you can count on most nintendo games being great. I mean, even if the next console zelda came in a black bag, you would still know it will most likely be an amazing game.

I thought RE4 wii edition, house of the dead overkill and madworld had great box art for the wii. spot on. I think this conduit box art is just horrid, it sends the wrong message.

It looks like a super nintendo game cover.

[niuniu]

Well since we xbots buy more games and you droids buy more movies, we play more games. With your Droid attach rate being so tiny and our being so big we play more than you. So when we "chat all day" we are chatting while playing all those games we xbots buy. http://www.macvobconverter....

[niuniu]

Nooooooo!!! Shenmue was one of the best games ever!!!!! http://www.macvobconverter....
