is The Conduit reviews getting you down

[Mr. Fister]

To be honest, I was never really interested in The Conduit, as most FPS games bore me. In fact, I was expecting it to get scores in the low 80's. What really had my interest in it is the brand new engine that High Voltage is using for this game. So far, it's sounding like a success, which is a good thing; they're showing that you can have decent-looking graphics on a system that wasn't made to support High Definition. Hopefully, more developers will start to understand this.

ok i know i havent played it yet but whats up with every review saying if it was on any other video game system then it wouldnt be any good it kinda makes me look at it differnt.

whats your view on it

My view is he's right, but that's not the point. They said they wanted to make the best of what you may or may not have played on other consoles, and all the reviews I've read say that it will be enjoyable, and reminiscent of Perfect Dark, so I'm still anticipating it.

I also disagree with the generic statements. Yes it would be generic if it were on another console, but not on the Wii. It's like saying Hollywood musicals were generic because Bollywood has been doing them for so much longer than them (in a way).

I'll also said to myself if it got between an 8-9 on reviews I would be happy as a crack-head in a pharmacy, and it has, so I am. It wouldn't have stopped me from getting it anyway, I pre-ordered it a while ago. If it sells well then we should see more games of it's ilk, or just more games that have a higher production value so to speak.

Gee,let's all think this one through: "an fps on the wii?" of course it's going to fail.

I would buy it. It's a lot better than some other Wii games.
