The Grinder | New IP For Wii | Vampires, werewolves, zombies

This must be the best HVS reveal, better even than The Conduit!!! Man, I'm so looking forward to this, it's not even funny.

And I wonder where all the Wii haters have gone to now?

Just... Awesome :D This is the kinda game Wii needs. HVS weren't kidding when they said they wanted to push Wii to breaking point. Guess the Conduit is the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Quantum 3.

Looks better than The Conduit in those 2 1st screens alone, LOL.

Wow! I get back from Terminator Salvation (which was ****ing awesome btw)only to return to a really exciting game announcement! I've always enjoyed anything vampire/werewolf/zombie, so this looks freaking GREAT!

amg you didn't like Terminator Salvation?????

:(

Sounds like Killing Floor mashed with L4D.

Eh.skrat_01

Exactly what I was thinking.

The people I don't really get are the ones that say they'll finally "dust" off their Wiis to play the Conduit or The Grinder. That's like saying online FPSs are the only genre you're after. 360 and PS3 both have many high quality shooter titles, why dust your Wii of for potentially much worse titles in the same genre?

The Wii's best games are rated E-T and should not be passed over because they are "kiddie". The Wii also offers some very different games

-Super Mario Galaxy (Platformer)

-Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Fighter with a twist. Only fighting franchise I know without a health bar)

-Punch-Out!! (Puzzle Fighter where single player is everything)

-Metroid Prime 3: Corruption (FPSA or First Person Shooter/Adventure)

-Mario Kart Wii (Racer)

-Zack & Wiki (Point and click puzzle game)

-Super Paper Mario (RPG PLatformer)

-Excitebots (racing game where finishing first doesn't always mean winning)

The Wii is strong because it offers different titles not more of the same. If Wii is your only console, it makes sense to want High Voltages games, but if you have one of the other two consoles you can already get what these guys are offering only they are probably stronger titles. High Voltage practically said it themselves: they are trying to give Wii owners the experience that the owners of the other consoles are having. They are a "me-too" company. So far they copied Halo and now Left for Dead. It remaiins to be seen whether or notthey succeed

Okay now I'm not getting The Conduit....this looks way better.TripHawkins

[QUOTE="Maglovin"]Best graphics I've seen on the Wii. The Nintendo games like Galxy are beautiful but lack the technical prowess that this offers. Really does look....dare I say... quite next gen.psychobrew

I wouldn't go that far just yet. It does look impressive, but there are still a few Wii games that look better, like Spyborgs, Silent Hill Wii, Resident Evil: Dark Side Chronicles, Metroid Prime 3, and SMG.

All those games looks great.:| I am not saying The Grinder doesn't look bad. I think it looks impressive, and even looks better then the Conduit. But those games just look better, and I am not just talking about the artistic side, they all look great on the technical side too.

As far as the Wii goes, these guys get an A for effort.

from the studio that brought you masterpieces such as "white men can't jump", "America's army", and other random mediocre ports, it's another game that will probably be not too great but wii fans will tout because they have nothing else to tout.

thank you.

So they spent a long time making games based on licensed properties for other publishers (who, given the nature of a lot of those properties, probably rushed them) to help fund their own projects. I didn't think that was a secret.

That said, until June rolls around, it's still true that they haven't proven themselves yet.

Also: I see I wasn't the only person to think of the failures of Dead Rising: Chop Till You Drop when compared to this.

From the 3 games HVS have announced, this looks the most interesting.

EDIT: Whoops, totally forgot about that animales:toute blah blah game. This game is second.

[QUOTE="The_Brodeo"]

[QUOTE="Vandalvideo"] You're going to first day purchase a game whose sum total of selling points at this momment in time is; It totally doesn't suck like the rest of FPS games on the Wii and it has zombies and werewolves? In this age where there are more FPS games than I can count, it is going to take more than middling graphics and zombies to get me hyped.Vandalvideo

Did somebody from "High Voltage" hurt a family member of yours? I am confused as to why you care what I want to play so badly. The best bet for you is to maybe leave this thread and not buy the game if it has you so upset.The_Brodeo

Have to agree, The Conduit has definitly taken a backseat to The Grinder for me:P

I just kinda wish they had pushed The Conduit back a bit so they could implement some of the upgraded engine tech.. oh well, The Conduit 2 right?
