Why is The Conduit hated so much?

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption >>>>>The Conduit.

Anybody who thinks its a good game hasn't played a next gen FPS on a next gen system. It fails in pratically every category, i never even managed to finish it....

Because its absolutely HORRIBLE.. THe only thing it had going for it was good controls, everything else about the game was terrible

Its a bad game, the only thing it has going for it is a good control scheme. I bought the game launch and took it back a month later.

It was underrated in my opinion. It was very fun and is the best FPS on the Wii, just because some sheep hyped it as a halo killer why is it a bad game? Didnt Scribblenauts flop? it that a bad game? no. Im new around here so I just wanna know why so much hate for a fun Wii game?? PS - I think Gamespot rated it a 6.5 because there comparing it to ps3, 360 and PC shooters and of course Wii FPS games arent nearly as good as those systems but as a Wii FPS wouldnt it be like a solid 8.0?

It has one of the best stories this gen though, and Wii haters, I have proof. Read it and weep. Just because it has a good story, does not mean it was presented well.

Um, I have to point out that your post is extremely misleading. Those screens are from the BETA. The models, textures, and even the HUD from the screens are nothing like in the final release. Look at the drone's heads. In the release version, they looked nothing like that. The textures in all of the stages of which those screens are from were completely redone before release. Even the health bar is WRONG. The healthbar was replaced with a thin green line.

Your post adds nothing of value to the discussion. It should be disregarded by anyone with with enough sense to see through your attempt at deceit.

Due to your blatant attempt at spreading misinformation, I must now assume that everything that you ever say from here on out is false.

EDIT: Even the gun reticule is wrong.

EDIT#2: removed pics from quote in order to avoid clogging up the thread.

Never played it but hate for games that have been hyped up as system saviours is not uncommon. Same thing happened to Killzone 2. Its hype backlash.beekayjay

Those are random pics from google its hard to chose one that looks better when beta and final version looks the same graphicaly....

Syferonik

Lie. Every single one of the pics that you posted was from thet beta. It's immediately obvious due to the radically different HUD and the lower quality models. You specifically chose beta screens from the early development phase in order to falsely bolster your claim.

EDIT: The strange reticule is also a dead give-away.

[QUOTE="FILIPINOMAZTER"][QUOTE="Syferonik"]Why exacly would you need to customize your controller when its great already (Halo games,CoD games Gears and the rest) or you buying/renting games to tweak its controlls and spend atrocious time paying a boring game?

Syferonik

The Conduit is just a bad game.
Even by last gen standards.

This game deserves more hate than what it gets...This is probably the uglyest design i've seen in a FPS this gen. Wii is not done for fps but mini games so stick with that Nintendo plz and leave FPS's to big boys.

Syferonik

First off, those are the earliest screens when the game was announced.

Second off, Wii not done for First Person games? You haven't seen this game, obviously:

It's obvious you don't own a Wii and have never played this game. Why would you heap more hate on it if it doesn't affect you at all?

Maybe because they're good series? I can say that all PS3 fanboys only talk about Uncharted and God of War, and that all 360 fanboys only talk about Halo and Gears of War. It won't mean much, though, since these franchises are FLAGSHIP series. How can you not expect people to talk about them?

i agee leave the bad, generic shooters for the crappy consoles

we dont want them on the wii :P

Ohh yeah i remember the game made years ago sure. All you Wii fanboys talk is SMG/METROID and Zelda...next plz

Syferonik

still better then playing you generic shooters and racing games over and over again O,o

atlast zelda,mario and metroid are good

I enjoyed the Conduit. Never been able to get the hang of FPS's with game pads being a PC gamer, so having a console FPS I actually found playable on a console, even if it was generic, was great. Visuals were very variable though. Gameplay worked for me. Especially on harder levels.

The range in scores (common with Wii games) all comes down to how the reviewer got into the game, and got on with the controls.

ps2snesgod

Good graphics?

Also the single player was below average, the MP was fun since the control in the game was so great, definitely better than the single player and I've played much worse online multiplayer games.
