High Voltage Software Apologizes for Upcoming Conduit 2's Awesomeness
- Thread starter Russ Pitts
- Start date
Still better PR ideas than anything EA has done recently or anything that Bobby Kotick has said at all.
High Voltage also made the video game iteration of White Men Can't Jump.
Granted, that was a decade and a half ago, but it's true.

They want to claim that a Sega game on the Wii will be the greatest game of all time? Why don't they just claim "it will actually be a good Wii game"? That goal might actually be achievable.
Same here. Methinks people here just don't have a sense of humor and/or are so butthurt over a conceited email that they have to go on the defensive.ModReap said:
I found this email hilarious. Hilarious in a good sense.
It must be hard to get any sort of interesting marketing/PR these days, but this makes them come off as a bunch of pretentious twats.
They're gonna need to make a serious apology when this game ends up being worse then the firstsunburst313 said:And considering the quality of the original, this would likely be far more appropriate.
Good thing they didn't send HIM a personalized sorry-we're-awesome letter or we'd've heard the explosion from here.DaHero said:
Good gravy no...I live in Alabama and an explosion that large could only be accomplished by Yahtzee playing online multiplayer...a sentiment I share.Formica Archonis said:
No this would not cause an explosion, but a soft, quiet fizzle...as he plots an entire video to it. See, Yahtzee, like me, is deadliest when he takes crap quietly.
I don't get why people are talking trash about the game already a month before its release, especially given the #1 problem I hear most people cite with the Wii: lack of serious third-party support. I know most third-parties don't really take the Wii seriously, but if we automatically can the efforts to actually produce a good third-party Wii game and nobody buys it, what does that say to developers? It's just discouraging them from even trying. If we ever want to have an awesome third-party Wii title, we should encourage efforts like this moderately and push devs to do more and try new, innovative things with it to find a great gaming experience, not laugh off any attempt as if it were some joke. Will Conduit 2 be great? Probably not. It may very well be good though, and I say we should at least give the devs credit for taking the Wii seriously and trying to provide good "hardcore" third-party titles for it, which is more than can be said for most.
Well they started out well but then turned into a 10 year old.
I guess for a Wii title it seems quite good, but in the real world that game is about 8 years behind.

looks like when they go to kiss someone's ass they don't screw around with a light peck, they go for a full-on frencher
I found the letter quite comical actually, it was sent as a joke, I don't see why so many people are giving this so much hate. Sure if you take it seriously they come off as arrogant jerks, but it isn't meant to be taken seriously...
At least I hope not.
