Hmm. I wonder what's gonna make me pick up Black Ops or the so far disappointing Goldeneye over Conduit 2?

But here's the problem.. it can have as many new features as ever, but the core mechanics of the game are the same. And unfortunately, the core mechanics of the first Conduit were pretty bad compared to other FPS on the market, so expanding that rather than changing them isn't going to do much justice.

Have you played both Call of Duty and The Conduit? Would you like to explain what makes it the better FPS experience? Because I don't see much at all.

Please explain what you mean by core mechanics.

CoD:WaW single player was great.....in the begining. CoD:MWR single player was meh all the way through. Both had decent online though.

Core mechanics as in how the game plays in general.. I dunno, I just found Conduit to be slow paced, sluggish and frustrating. I can play CoD online for hours on end - there's just so much variety and different playstyIe options, whereas in Conduit I felt I was doing the same thing over and over and it became very stale after a few matches.

But I'm glad to know Conduit 2 is using the custom cIass system so you can choose your weapons/perks, so that's one major issue fixed.

Who is really going to buy this over Black Ops, Halo Reach. etc? HVS has chosen a terrible release date. I would be interested otherwise if it really is improved over the original.

I mentioned Halo because of the release date issue.. probably worded it wrong. But Black Ops is the main point here: the #1 FPS right now is hitting the Wii at the same as The Conduit, and that's half the reason I'm just not interested like many other people.

What makes this stand out and makes this the FPS game to play on the Wii?

Haziqonfire

Yeah exactly, this is the big question. And since it hasn't done much to impress yet, all I see is the sequel to a subpar shooter..

Seriously guys do you really wanna set yourself up for another disappointment? I'd love to be optimistic about this game but am kinda struggling to find any reason to.

Those who only own a Wii? Yes they exist.

Or those who likes the Wii controls?

Also some people play the games just for their campaigns, and never touch online MP. Like me! So, why not buy multiple FPS games?

You need some perspective!

Black Ops is coming out for the Wii, and most people will be getting that over The Conduit 2 unless something drastic happens. I'm just saying releasing a FPS around the same time as a new CoD and Halo, regardless of which system, is a bad idea.

To see that both Retro's game and Project Sora are old IPs was kind of a bummer, truth be told.

We haven't had a Donkey Kong platformer or Kid Icarus game in over 15 years, it's excusable. Especially when the DK Country trilogy is some of the best work to ever hit a Nintendo platform.

How is it a step back? :?

jamesm7786

I think the visuals area downgrade from TP. I am not saying they should have used TP like graphics, but I am thinking they could have done better than this. It looks... artificial for what it is... I am sure someone else out there has had the same realization. I don't know exactly how to word it, but it just looks blah.

You're brushing off the entire game because of the art style regardless of how well it plays?

This sounds familar...

How is it a step back? :?

but you cant tell me you enjoy the games wii has been producing.....

Wii has plenty of great games, would you like to elaborate... I mean how can you be excited for DK Country but say the system with the best 2D platformers sucks?

I'm also wondering whether they're still making Pikmin 3.

I think the roundtable shall reveal a little more. Maybe some vitality sensor too?

When is the round table btw ?

trugs26

The roundtable was a while ago, only Pikmin info was that it's still in development.
