The Conduit Causing Epic Fear Amongst Wii Haters

From HDWarriors -
With this latest offering from "Hateful, Threatened, Fanboy Central" we begin to gain a clear picture of just how afraid certain people are that this game is what it says it is. That it just might sell alot. That it just might be so well developed, and so much fun that it's worth buying a Wii for, even if you already own an HD console. Even if you love Halo 3, or Killzone 2.

[badz149]

so it pushes the boundary for the Wii but it's not even in HD! to go as far as comparing it to KZ2 is somewhat delusional! this game is luckyb to even manage to sell 200k worldwide! that's too low for a 50+ million user based!

[Aggesan]

Do you always have to bring in your sales predictions? Who cares about the numbers when all that matters to gamers are the games themselves?

Now regarding the game, it seems to be good, but I haven't seen or read anything about it that impressed so far. Sure, the graphics are nice considering it's for wii, but so what? Great graphics rarely makes a game better. I doubt it will be anything I'll buy a wii because of, but I'll wait for the final reviews before I make my mind up.

[ChickeyCantor]

The most interesting part would be the control scheme...not the visuals.
When it comes to the Conduit people only talk about the visuals...
I don't blame anyone, i mean Wii wasn't suppose to do anything more than a Ps2....right?

But seriously though the controls can really be solid and i honestly don't think that 100% of all people who are waiting for this, are jumping for the "visuals".

Also buddy,
God of war not selling 150 million on the Ps2 is PRETTY LOW(or any other "hardcore" game for that matter) *retarded faces*.
( O i'm sorry did i just invoke your brain to think of excuses now? Fact is that people bash the Wii and its 50 million installbase, pretending that every "hardcore" title on the Ps2 sold 150 million+)
Seriously that arguement is so full of shyte...get over it.

No matter what you say( like but you know Ps2 had more hardcore games than shovelware, is irrelevant) you know that statement is just nonsense.

[edgeofblade]

Another "fear in the hearts of fanboys" story. Glad to see the 360 and PS3 fanboys can band together to collectively call bullshit.... as we should since we are on the same side of the REAL war: hardcore vs casual, precision vs. waggle, AAA vs. shovelware.

Wii FPS will never be viable unless you stop using the cursor to turn and look. It's sickening the way you have to gimp the enemies to deal with pie-in-the-sky design decisions.

But then, the self-righteous PC crowd could say the same thing about consoles in general. I just think the junk that Wii gives us is the line you don't cross.

[Da One]

agreed the wii shames me as gamer

although it has a lot of games i want

[ZuperAmazingCooKie]

16 player online? Last gen graphics? Generic storyline? "teh controls"? Sounds to me like the Wii zealots are the ones in fear of their last hope flopping. Judging by previews and previous sales records it is not looking good. Poor High Voltage, they should develop for systems where their games will be appreciated.

[N4g_null]

Cookie...

If you are not afraid then why post here? Are Wii hardcore afraid of the PS3 coming back...LOL nope hell we hope it does, this gen is just shameful for them. There are no zealots here for nintendo actualy if you guy didn't slame the Wii at all most of us wouldn't even post here. I mean I understand the Wii graphic pipeline and your still trying to tell people the cell can run shaders at a GPU speed? That is just bad for the fans because they expect more than what they will get.... never being able to show the true power of your console is a end game scenario when that what the majority of your customers bought the system for. Like I've said before the HD fans will kill that platform all by them selves. I mean it's like watch Saturday morning cartoons and you guys are the villains.

DID you notice how quickly the story was approved here on N4G with out even checking it out? Seriously you want it to do badly. Yet you really should stick to your HD system of choice and try to find some thing good to post about it because heavy rain, uncharted, all sound just as boring as what came out last year. Hey you guys may be excited but the line up is looking lame, more concept art in motion that fun game play.

The ones that do have a Wii are excited because this is what we want a motion based FPS with graphics that match the system. Also when you try it out you will like it. HVS have out done them selves on this one and I'm expecting their art team to get better also. Hey it may sell well and it may sell slow but seriously it coming out is all that needs to happen because the wii needs at least 1 FPS that gets new comers hooked.

I do think a few of you are afraid it's going to do well. That means the motion FPS control catch on and lots of you don't want to learn some thing new. That's understandable but lame. You don't see us in the uncharted threads do you? We let you hype your game all you want?

[poopface1]

I dont hate wii. I no longer have any current gen consoles, only PC. But I am sick of hearing about the conduits "effect" on other console owners. I dont think it looks that good, and if it was on ps3/360 it would most defiantly be just "another shooter." It may be good but I doubt itll have even close to the impact alot of people are expecting.

I think most people are just tired of people trying to make them care about the conduit.

Just like halo 3 or killzone 2, If your not into it you just wont be convinced to like it no matter how many people tell you its great. And after a while you may actually start to hate it. I

[Sarcasm]

I don't get it. Most people don't care about this title because they're too busy playing games.

I however, will at least rent this and play on my nephew's Wii.

[Danja]

Ne ways im still looking forward to this game , if the control scheme works great then im all aboard , I really dont care about the graphics , thats why I have KZ2 and COD4 to play also..

some of you guys here are too negative it's laughable at times , im not the biggest fan of the Wii but it does have great games also , and this could potentially be one of them , plus the online portion seems pretty cool from what the devs are trying to do with it.

[Chubear]

.. because they've seen that if developers start making more $ and success from these wii type games then it's very possible they'll focus more attention on conduit type games that don't advance gaming in anyway.

Take for instance this waggle wii-mote. Ninty fans will swear to high heaven that it is the ultimate in control schemes and that other gamers wish they had it. However, in reality, the PS3, 360 and most certainly PS fanbase couldn't give a rats buttocks about wii-mote type controls and we fear everyday that Sony, MS and others may try convincing or force us to use that gimmicky crap in our game experiences.

The rest of the gaming community outside of ninty fans see Nintendo as setting gaming backwards and have a real fear that their style of gaming may in some way be introduced on the PS3 & 360 cause developers may want to bring wii type success to their games on these platforms.

If you asked these fanbases if they'd prefer a wii-mote version instead of a control pad or k/m I bet you'd get a staggeringly, deafening & resounding - "HELLLLL NO!!!!!!"

[N4g_null]

Chubear wII OWNERS SWEAR BY IT BECAUSE IT WORKS AND IT IS NOT WAGGLE.

We wanted an online FPS because we saw the controls work in metroid and if you've gotten far in it I would love to see you play that game with dual analog the bosses are way too fast for you.

The people that may enjoy the conduit the most are PC gamers wanting a console game that can keep up with their FPS skills. Lots of people have been waiting on this and the graphics are like polish.

Another thing is the preciseness of the controls are the main reason why newcomers love Wii games. The only true waggle on our consoles is the PS3's controller since it lacks IR.

You can claim it's not accurate all you want I bet you believe dual analog is better than a mouse key board set up also. Hey if that what you like then good for you. Yet good controls equals more fans. Also the Ai is not gimped many have already complained about getting their a$$ handed to them selves in the single player.

Hey if your not afraid then you should not be here, I mean is there a Wii owners afraid of uncharted, nope, infamous, nope... This reminds me of how people felt about Wii sports then every one lined up to play it at E3. I think the same thing is going to happen at this E3... Nintendo's PR could show up late and just put out their games and get a good response from the public.

Obviously FPS fan don't care about generic art because halo out sold most FPS games on the PS3. I mean isn't the yellow light of death from dust build up? The same goes for the 360, I wonder why all of the dusty Wiis are not having problems? Maybe because you don't own one.

[SinnedNogara]

When you read your comment it sounds stupid.

So what if the Wii is getting a great game?? How will this game make the PS3 and 360 quality suffer??

Why do sales matter?? It's not like if the game sells only 1,000 units then it sucks. It is still a good game right??

Whether it sells 1,000 or 1,000,000 it will still be awesome.

[SinnedNogara]

The Conduit....generic?? ROFL!!

You should rename yourself "CAPTAIN SPAMMO!" You don't know crap about the game do you. It isn't generic and if you actually read the story and gameplay, you wouldn't sound so dumb right now!!

Generic Games That Are "Great"

Halo 3
Call of Duty
Call of Duty 2
Call of Duty 3
Call of Duty: WaW
Killzone 2

Halo 3 has won dozens of GOTY awards!! And it is VERY generic. It screams "GENERIC, GENERIC!!" But does it mean it's bad.

EPIC FAIL.

[mistajeff]

All the hands-on stuff I've read about this says it's bad.

[ChickeyCantor]

Then you are only reading the ones that were negative...
you are obviously lying if you are saying they all said it was bad.
The majority thinks otherwise.

[N4g_null]

Really where? I have not seen one bad hands on yet? Any sites?

[phantomexe]

Lol nice...Read that did ya,all the hands on been bad.Ok safe to say you can't read because the hands on by ign and other web sites has been good.There have been some fakes,but why am i trying to explain this to you.The game may end up with low sells at the start but it will like world at war go on and sell over a mil on the wii easy.I think we will see a conduit 2.The fanboys need new stuff to complain about.

[rjguess]

When comparing The Conduit to a ps3 game like Killzone2 or a 360 game like halo. They should compare by gameplay and control scheme and overall fun gameplay, story, replay ability, and so on. I own both and wii and a ps3 and I know better than to compare the wii graphically to the ps3 or 360 games.
So when I see this game I say wow thats a great looking wii game. Not man that thing looks as good as a ps3 or 360 game. No bc it does not. Also people who don't own the wii need to admit this is a nice looking wii game. Stop the comparison to halo and Killzone graphically. Compare it in other ways as above.

[ChickeyCantor]

Have a bubble.

[The gaming GOD]

But to be fair, comparisons to KZ 2 or Halo are partially the developer's own fault. Because THEY themselves said a number of times the Conduit would be able to rival graphically FPS games on the other consoles such as those.

True as you said, the comparison shouldn't even be made. But The Conduit developers shouldn't have made the comparison to begin with

[ChickeyCantor]

Wasn't it obvious they were talking about stuff like "full normal/emboss/bump mapping" , "radiocity/perpixel lightning" etc etc?

Seriously they know Wii won't do 1080P, they would shoot themselves in the foot if they actually go with that mentality.

Ah, I see i have a fan...
Keep hitting that disagree ma boy, it only shows that you love me.

[The gaming GOD]

A few months ago on Spike TV the guy said Graphics. You might have to web search the Conduit Episode of Gametrailers TV. But yeah, he didn't sugar coat anything.

And even if he was talking about the stuff you just said, the bottom line is they are STILL making a comparison. So again, it's their own fault comparisons to games like Killzone 2 and Halo 3 are being made

[N4g_null]

The gaming GOD even if you hold them to it they did pretty damn good LOL. The normal maps in this game are pretty good when you look at the spec. I mean it's like saying a direct x 7-8 card can do normal maps, that pretty impressive to me.

Another thing is people don't compare HD console games to the PC. Because the console simply don't have the specs. I mean if you get a Wii then you are not expecting HD console stuff and to get some of it is pretty impressive which is why it got some of it's hype but once people get to play this one the hype will go to the controls and game play which is what keeps people playing.

The Wii also doesn't have 256 megs of ram or a GPU like a RSX nore a multiple chip set up and it is still cranking out some good stuff. That is what I like about consoles. They use so little but accomplish so much.

[Thoreau]

i will stick to kz2 and cod mw,

where do they get these journalism piece titles from?

[SpoonyRedMage]

It's come from the fact that someone was sad enough to write a full fake review of the game to make it look bad.

[ChickeyCantor]

Actually spoony it was to show that people don't read the actual content of a review but just render their virdict by a rating.

Cause if people did read the article then they would have known it was full of false claims/information.
The fact it was approved on this website shows how true it is what the maker was trying to point out.

Maybe a bad move from that guy, but it sure showed what he was trying to point out.

[SpoonyRedMage]

ahh right, I thought it was just a terrible fake.

There still seems to be a lot of people who want the game to fail and that's sad.

[peeps]

the guy wrote the fake review to prove a point. And judging by the comments under the article, his point was proven.... people bashed the game without reading it to see it was fake and then once it was found out to be fake there were comments such as 'this may stop people from buying the game now, you idiot' or words to that effect.

If people really didn't buy a game based off of 1 spoof review then i dunno what to say really...

[Pootangpie]

I mean the on screen effects okey but the textures just are downright ugly it looks like N64 quality to be honest

[YeOldeGamer]

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! :D

[Pixel_Addict]

Nobody cares. Paranoid much? Seriously though, why does the author care? I play what ever I want regardless of what some anonymous pricks post on a nerdsite. I hate the Wii, but im not crazy. The Conduit looks great and I hope it convinces me to buy a Wii. Other then that couldn't care less.

[PirateThom]

It's not causing fear, it's HD owners calling "BS".

Since the Wii released, Wii owners have been going the route that the Wii offers fresh, new games, while hailing the Conduit, the most generic of generic FPS games, that would be the next Turok were it not for it being on Wii.

[N4g_null]

LOL slow down and read man. It's all about the controls and trying it out online, the graphics where just polish. Hell it could look like quake 3 and I would play the hell out of it.

Controls that is why we are excited. It's really too bad more people have not play this game, E3 will change that though. Many people felt the same way about halo. Halo would actually sell more if it used GASP this control set up. If you don't believe me then watch MS come out with a motion controller to play the next halo with. If they don't then MS truly is stupid.

I remember PS3 loving warhawk, why because of the motion controls and online. Hey the ones that posted here may not mind this game but others that love their sales stats are going to be pi$$ed. I actually hope this game slow burns and just pops up one day with 3 million sold out of no where like most good popular Wii games.

This game proves how good motion controls are because there is no big IP, eye popping HD graphic or some big studio name, just one of the best motion control set up I've seen so far.

[CPmonkey]

The reviews seem to disagree with this article.

[FinalomegaS]

was reviewed already?

news to me...

[labwarrior]

But let's see, i expect a 4-5/10 game out of this one

LKS is a 9-10 Wii game for me

[Panthers]

Yea but everyone was calling that review fake. It is way early for Nintendo Power to do a review.

[peeps]

that review was fake... the whole point of it was to prove people just look at the number... and guess what lol

[Chubear]

Nintendo gamer games have not had a decent run in a long while and reviewers are going to help the hell out of this title. Hey, if they can give a game like excite bots 8.8 then this will easily be smeared with 9s.

I'm sorry but they can give it a 15 for all I care. When I look at a current gen game, I ask myself, can this be done on last gen platform? Well, when I take a look at a game like Black that came out 3yrs ago and then factor in this game being developed for the Xbox or PS2 for the past 2-3 yrs, then yes, it's obvious this can be done on a last gen machine and I've moved on from last gen.

If you're telling me the gameplay is the ultimate uber cause I get to wavy wavy waggle waggle with a X-hairs that size of my house then I'm not buying that BS. Having customizable HUD doesn't automatically make this current gen gameplay.

[Phantom_T]

Don't be so stupid. The Wii is nothing more than a gimmick.
And you know why that is?
It's because the overall control scheme is the main selling point instead of the actual games being released for it.
It's sad that being able to waggle your hand is made to be more appealing than the actual content of the game.
"World at War on the PS3/360 you say? no thanks I can have a dumbed down version for the Wii but At least I get to move my arm while playing it"
Please god don't make me ever have to say waggle in a sentence again.

[tiamat5]

That is the stupidest thing in have ever. What kind of loser sits down and hopes and wishes that a game does bad? Everyone is acting as if the Conduit is such a big thing. Xbox 360 and PS3 owners have dozens of shooters, with more coming out in the coming months.The Conduit is just one game. Plus is the same speech that is always given by Nintendo. "It is spectacular", it will sell millions", "it will satisfy hardcore gamers","it will be as good as any PS3 or Xbox 360 game". Then the game comes out, it is mediocre at best, it sells only in the low hundred thousands and everyone pretends it doesn't matter after making such a big fuss.From what I have seen so far the game already has two strikes against it. Not only does it look very ugly, the AI looks really stupid. They don't seem especially quick witted or seem to have any particular tactics. Everyone expects this game to light the world on fire.But it looks like Golden Eye for the N64. I seriously doubt it will.

[-MoOkS-]

It has even more jaggies than inFAMOUS, only just LOL, and the gameplay looks generic.

Tacked on wiggle waggle controls don't make games good.

[The gaming GOD]

Would bring other ps3 games into the mix. And with all those "jaggies" inFamous as (according to you) watch how much that game will be praised. Btw, how's that Velvet Assassin treating you :)?

[jBat17]

on the other hand, scarlet johanson has the best jaggies in recent years, IMO.. typo, that should be a u

i'm sure conduit is a perfectly fine FPS for the more casual gamers.. as long as it's fun, i'd buy it..

too bad, mooks-xbot, you can't brag about TEH SALES against the wii..

[Panthers]

I dont care about this game. If it does good or bad it wont bother me any. What I will say is that every single Wii owner I know has a total of 2-3 games. Wii Sports, Wii Fit, and Mario Kart.

[VaeVictus]

frightens me as a real gamer. The Conduit looks to be a solid effort by an independent company actually putting forth effort on a 3rd party Wii title.

Will it push me to buy a Wii? No. When the Wii is more appropriately priced @ $129.99 USD will I check it out? Sure.

[ChickeyCantor]

" frightens me as a real gamer"
AAALLL FEAR THE REAL GAMER...
For HE IS REAL!

*taking off in my space ship*

[ChickeyCantor]

As for this article, hell i don't care much...
But some of you sure know how to make retarded comments...LOL.

Just enjoy the game if its good, no need to be a hater.

@ spoony below,
I bet you are the only rational person here LOL

[Mr Face Creamer]

Outdated hardware that are weaker than a 100$-XP powered PC.

The Wii and the DS just prove that sh1t sells better than actual decent products such as the PS3 and Xbox 360.

Same with Apple, everyone buys them when there are literally thousands of products 30x times better.

Nintendo should just die, burn to hell and get erased off the NPD charts once and for all.

[ironcreed]

With all the shooters I can play on the PS3 and 360, I am supposed to be jealous of The Conduit???? Best joke I have heard all week. I can go back to last gen and play MANY better shooters than what the Conduit will be. It has graphics of a mid gen PS2 game at best. As for the gimmicky controls? Turns me off more even still, I do not care how "precise" they may be. The game itself looks like the poster boy of the term GENERIC. Keep the laughs coming, please.

[SpoonyRedMage]

I wonder how many people read the article or even looked at where it came from. "hdwarriors.com".

They're just pointing out the fact that people took some pathetic delight in the fake review of the game and that people want to see it fail even though the devs have put a lot of work into it, possibly more than most devs do for HD games.

Most of you guys seem to have just saw the headline.

[LLSMOOTH]

Metroid Prime 3 is the only good console FPS game with a good control scheme.
At least it is on Wii. 360 and PS3 have no FPS games with good controls. I repeat.. ZERO, none, nada. Analog sticks are horrible and you know it.

Saying that Metroid Prime 3 is a Gamecube port doesn't mean a thing. It could be a Neo Geo port and I wouldn't care. it is great game. I dont get wrapped up in "Next Gen" hype.

[LLSMOOTH]

How in the world do you play a FPS with dual analog sticks? I would rather eat cat sh*t with a knit needle.

The Wii remote and nunchuck is superior over the PS3 and 360 controller.

When I play Killzone 2 it is liking playing a game in the dark ages. It is so slow and aiming is horrible.

As far as HD graphics, how many Ps3 and 360 games are actually in HD? THe answer is few.. Halo 3 was in like 540P.

Resolution doesn't mean good graphics. I will put Metroid Prime 3 up against ANY game including Killzone 2 with its dull environments.

[Mr Face Creamer]

A Wii fanboy?!?!??! I must be high on waffles!

[Microsoft Xbox 360]

"How in the world do you play a FPS with dual analog sticks? I would rather eat cat sh*t with a knit needle."

Is that a rhetorical question?

Tell that to the millions of Halo, CoD, Killzone, Resistance players out there. You should be banned for asking such dumb questions.

[VaeVictus]

roffle copter

How many Wii FPS' have good control schemes at the moment? Metroid Prime 3, the Gamecube port? That's about it right? Yeah, that's pretty much it.

Have fun with your online play as well.

roffle copter

[LLSMOOTH]

I am a fan of fun games. Playing same old shooters the same old ways is no fun... Halo, Resistence, Killzone.. they are all the same.

Grab a Wii remote and nunchuck and you step in the New Generation.. not "Next Gen". There is nothing like it.

[VaeVictus]

that you are being facetious. 'Shirley' you can't be serious.

[Microsoft Xbox 360]

I'll probably regret getting this game but if its anything like RE4 controls, I'm sure it'll be somewhat fun.

[wiizy]

its plain and simple..the wii is the only next gen systems..the sales shows it..now they are afraid of the possibility of a game showing it..and the conduit is looking sweet.

[titntin]

I hope it sucedes. Wi owners after hard core games deserve more of them, but they won't come if titles like this fail to shift units.

At least the developer has tried to push the hardware a bit and should be applauded for doing so, even if inviting comparisons with the Hd consoles wasn't the best move.

I'm afraid the title might end up being a generic shooter, but its ultimate fun factor will derive from how well the controls have been implemented - and every indication is that they are doing a great job in this area. Controls are what can make this game really stand out and offer a genuinely different experience, and I look forward to trying it!

[VaeVictus]

in the very least with the fully mapable buttons. I do like that they are allowing you to set up your own control scheme (like PC). I hope in the future, all fps titles allow that.

[Henry Cain]

I don't see why this game would cause fears. The only games that sell well on the Wii are games with Mario, Zelda or Wii for a title.

[boss_killa]

this game looks laughable and downright craptastic.

Wii owners shouldnt be hyping this trash.

if it was a new Metroid with amazing ps2/gamecube like graphics then i'd hype it up but this?

[Shoko]

But you are acting like it.

[Gr81]

Man, the haters end up validating the article they are trying to dismiss! So, sad.

[A LIVING LEGEND]

I call Epic bs.
If the Conduit is indeed a good game,why fear it? I fear shovelware actually.The Wii is lacking this type of experience,I think it is long overdue in fact.Let them have it,I see no threat to my carefully constructed existence,Wii owners deserve this game.I don't own a Wii but would welcome a reason to consider buying one.=)

[Achtung]

All who say that they are not threatened by The Conduit are liars.
Come on lets be honest, why bother to go to the Wii section and write all the hate on the game and system? Hahahahahah!!!!! tremble fanboys, tremble...

[tiamat5]

No one cares as much as you think. Nintendo and Microsoft fanboys over estimate how much people care. No one is trembling over the Conduit because we are too busy playing games that look, sound and play better then it could ever be. The Conduit may be revolutionary for the Wii but for anyone else, it isn't even close to anything we have.

[KwietStorm_BLM]

You are taking any slight criticism and/or opinions on the topic as "hate" for the Wii, because you are a fanboy yourself, and you cannot read through your own filter.

[tiamat5]

Who is acting like it. So far the Wii still hasn't proven anything. Have any of you realized that. What has the Wii proved? That it's superior? No. That it can go toe to toe with the PS3 and the Xbox 360? No. That it can make hardcore games that sell millions? No. That they can make games that are original and mind blowingingly good. No.That they can run high powered games without stuttering and glitching? No.That they know what the gamers really want? No.That they can con everyone and make you pay for inferior content and cheap garbage.Yes. The PS2 and SNES proved themselves great systems. They proved that when you pushed them to the limit you got gold. When you push the Wii the most you get is bronze if you are lucky.

[N4g_null]

LOL a GC port or res evil some as much as res 5 on the HD systems. Mario kart which was hated on the GC sales 18 million or some thing. Nintendo re-releases 3 old games and they play even better than before. Metroid 3 is the best one period so much that we would have love online play with those controls. Red steel 2 is seriously impressive now and motion+ is going to be the icing.

It's so impressive casuals want to play, yet they are not even touching your favorite system because it's just not fun. Daul analog has the waggle problem too LOL, it's called ana-spamming and most of your games even run slower so you can even aim. Try that on metroid.

All of the arguing is going to prove nothing. The game is going to be fun. E3 will prove this, and we are getting Tatsunoko vs. Capcom and your getting MvsC with online WOW that's so impressive, oh I forgot you get more pixels too WOW.

Seriously can you re-release a game on the HD systems and have it out sell res evil 4? Can the PS3 even out sell halo 3? I'm glad you guys are having fun but it sucks to be you right now.

[KwietStorm_BLM]

Fear? Nobody is scared of The Conduit and what it could be, and I have a very hard time believing many people at all would but a Wii for this game. I'm not saying it won't be a good game, but I just think the numbers speak for themselves, and have been saying all along that games like The Conduit are not what is selling the Wii. The thing that confuses me is if the game is supposed to be so good, why were the actual devs boasting about it's technical marvels (lol) over what it actually does as a game. We all know the Wii is not amazing from a technical standpoint, so it's funny that all of a sudden, this project is pushing limits on old technology, and it being compared to HD gaming for some reason. If the game turns out fun, then congratulations, good for them, but I thought all the high res graphics and tech specs didn't make a game?

[boss_killa]

but if im wrong then im happy for wii owners. you guys need some games.

[Shoko]

Talking about "F*** this game I have Killzone 2/Halo 3. Guys, graphics is the only things that those games have other The Conduit. The Conduit will have a 10 hour single player. Compare that to Killzone 2s 4 hour one. The Conduit also absolutely rapes ANY FPS when it comes to controls,and there's no denying this. Also, better controls in an FPS lead to better gameplay. There will be 13 Game modes and 9 maps.

So as you can see, it can stand up to shooters on other consoles. But I guess if a game isn't HD then it will suck.

[KwietStorm_BLM]

Do you own The Conduit? Exactly. How can you say what game is better than what? Graphics is the only thing Halo and Killzone have over The Conduit? Not even worth a laugh. Killzone has a 4 hour campaign? Have you ever even played these games you're hating on? Who did you say is a fanboy? A fool? Right.

[Shoko]

For your information,I own all 3 consoles and a Gaming PC. I also have Killzone 2. To prove this, you can type in "Shokio" on PSN and XBL - that's me.

But yes, I have played Killzone 2, and I do have it, and I actually did beat it in 4 hours. I used to own Halo 3.

Do I own The Conduit? You don't need to own a game to be able to rightfully say it has a 10 HOUR CAMPAIGN and great controls. You can customize the controls in every aspect possible, therefor, it does have the best FPS controls ever.

And I noticed how in no way did you try to refute what I said.

P.S.- (As further proof that I own Killzone 2, there's soldier, medic, tactician, assault, sabatoge, engineer, ans sniper class. Tacs put up spawn points and call in air support, engineers fix ammo boxes and can spawn bots, medics can revive a member and drop health packs, etc. In the campaign, one of the levels near the end have you in a mech. Rico beats the craq out of an ISA soldier and also kills Visari. Garza died due to Rico's stupidity. The lightning gun was only used on one level. The arc tower shot lightning. ISA's floting bases were ambushed. "Get to cover Sev!" "Body count! Take out as many as you can! It's them are you gentlemen!" The game's ending is weird, you kill Visari, then Sev just sits there. Sev and Rico kill Radec after a very long fight, an ISA vessel crashes through half way through it.)

You're still not making sense. All this "proof" is not necessary. Yes, controls and fluidity play a huge part of any FPS game, but that is not the extent of what makes a game a great experience or not. You're saying that a game that, again, you have not played, is better than other established good games, just because of the controls. That is ignoring every single thing that the other games do well. I'm not even saying that The Conduit is or will be a bad game, but to say that Killzone and Halo only has graphics over The Conduit is a ridiculous statement, made even more evident by the fact that you have not played the game. You don't have to own it to know that it has a 10 hour campaign? What are you basing that on then?

I don't own GOD of War 3 but i can rightfully say its has a 10 HOUR CAMPAIGN and great controls! Hell there's even muti player in it where you can use Narkio as well! I don't own it, never played it but hell I can rightfully say it.

PS-(not too hard to find all that info--- carrying on digging eh

Back to the article.... Good Wii has a seemingly good game, good for the Wii gamers... but fear Wii?? LOL Why should i feel Wii... I feel for my wallet with the amount of games I plan to get on my PS3 so tell me again why should I fear Wii?

[Shoko]

Are u serious man? When did I say that The Conduit was the better game? Quote me where I said that.........exactly, u can't, cause I never said that.

All I was saying was that The Conduit is better IN CEETAIN ASPECTS, like controls and length.

You're trying to disprove me on something I never even said. Lol.

As for the guy above me, why would I go watch ALL of Killzone's 2s campaign JUST FOR ONE comment? You make no sense. Instead of making me look foolish, you kinda exposed ur own stupidity.

[KwietStorm_BLM]

shoko - "Talking about "F*** this game I have Killzone 2/Halo 3. Guys, graphics is the only things that those games have other The Conduit."

I'm guessing you meant to say "over" instead of "other," so to me, or anyone with any logic, that statement is saying that The Conduit is a better game, because the only thing better about Killzone and Halo is the graphics. Is that not right? And you still have not addressed how you can claim the game is 10 hours long without playing it. As far as Killzone, you either played it on easy, or you are exaggerating about the campaign length.

[SinnedNogara]

Listen to Shoko.

He is right. The controls GANGBANG all the other games with customization.

Halo: Combat Evolved was apparently AMAZING. Did it have HD graphics?? No. But was it still good? Yes. Graphics don't make a game. Gameplay does.

[hatchimatchi]

no one is afraid of the conduit doing well. The only people who are afraid are the people who only own a wii. There is alot riding on this game and if it tanks it will say alot to publishers.

[N4g_null]

I would not say Wii owners are even afraid the console win this gen is pretty much sealed. We just want some more games and their will always be developers and publishers that want to make some thing new for just the controller period in most cases.

Yet hating this game is foolish. People will decide how they feel when they play it.

[Achtung]

The smell of fear is pervading...

[Shoko]

The developers themselves said it's 10 hours long. Wow, what a genius. Lol, saying that you need to play a game to know how long it is. It called *developers confirming things about their games*..........Duh?

And no, what i said did not say that The Conduit was the better game. I didn't mean that by saying "they only thing they have over...." as in The Conduit rapes them in every aspect. I was saying that the rest is opinionated, other than the fact that Killzone 2 looks better, and that The Conduit has better controls and is longer. The rest is all opinion.

[phantomexe]

Well really wii owners are exited for it but the people that are makeing a fuss of it are..well this is a ps3 site N4PS3 the ps3 fanboys.I mean not all of them but alot.It's like you see something about the conduit and lights go off.The game looks great and if you do put it side by side of some first gent ps3 xbox games it does look better or at least on par ,but it's more about the controls which is as close as you will ever get to a mouse and keybored.I don't get why you guys are so set on bashing it and yes sidar regardless of what you think it was about alittle more then just seeing if people would read the hole thing.I know you don't have any bubbles left but your right about just enjoying the game when it comes out and your right about the haters.
