I thought Nofsinger said there would be 9 maps? Anyway, they seemed fairly impressed with the multiplayer, which is a huge plus for this game. Kudos to HVS.SMR-Venom

Yes, which is why I never, ever go to GameStop for new games. I always find new releases pretty much everywhere else a day before I find them at GameStop.

The Conduit Special Edition (Pre-order)

Snazzy package they went with! If I have any money leftover in my paycheck I'll be pre-ordering within a few days:D

An art book of Conduit's art?!:( This package seems rather unnecessary but I'm sure some will dig it.

FFCYAN

Considering it is the exact same price as the regular retail edition, it's a very good buy. Looks like they are just giving incentives for pre-ordering.. obviously working since it's one of gamestops best selling Wii games and it hasn't launched yet. (Based on the Top Sellers list on the gamestop website..)

Wait, so it still has the same corny artwork on the actual cover? Half the reason I pre-ordered was for the black cover....The extras are just unlockables.

Thats the EU package, US edition is supposed to have the Gamestop exclusive boxart with the TRUST artwork on the actual case.

Seven maps will get boring pretty fast, especially if they wind up being lame.

Why didn't they just use that as the official boxart of the game? :P It's loads better than the current one.

I suppose it doesn't exactly convey the fact that you shoot people in the game, though.

IGN says The Conduit will probably score higher than Little Kings Story(41:26ish)

Not sure whether to take that as them hating Little Kings Store, or just really loving The Conduit. LKS has recieved verysolid scores all around, so maybe The Conduit is just that good :O

[QUOTE="Haziqonfire"]^ Thats expected. IGN was talking very highly of the game since the beginning - for them to give it a lower-than-expected score = people would be upset - IGN hype machine FTL!SMR-Venom

if i remeber correctly, ign hyped the hell outa NMH and in the end they ggave it a 7.9 or some where in the 7's

[QUOTE="SMR-Venom"] You are right. As much as I want The Conduit to succeed, the scores should be honest. IGN tend to hype too much sometimes, which is not a good thing. However, if the game is good, then I see no problem.thegoldenpoo

i think matt cassamasina and eric nofsinger have a little something going on :P

seriously though if codwaw canget an 8.5 when its just a port i find it hard to beleive a full blown wii exlusive with superior graphics and gameplay will do worse...

Good interview. At 13 min Eric talks about stuff they didn't have enough time for. Maybe in the sequal; The Conduit 2...

Quite good! I can't help but love that man for his passion for the system and the game.Arc2012

Not to mention he's got kickin' hair!

^ in the hope that this game is at least half as awesome as eric's hairstyle.

Oh of course! :lol:

Have you seen some of the earlier interviews where he just looks normal? I'm telling you that the hair is all a part of the marketing strategy.

good interview but remember this you always think your own baby look good while others may think its look ugly

meaning they created this game so they think its goin to be good but it may turn out bad

hopefully this game delivers on the big promises

[QUOTE="psychobrew"][QUOTE="wiifan001"]LMAO! I never thought that The Conduit would go this far into having its own sticky thread That's awesome. I look forward to it :D (but I don't praise it)Jaysonguy

Actually it shows the exact opposite

This thread is taking a cancer away from the rest of the forum, so instead of eating away at the rest of the forum until it dies this thread was made to contain all of the damage to this one thread and let the rest of the forum stay healthy.

As for the game the only thing it relies on is the fact that you can control it with the Wiimote. That novelty wore off sometime in 2007.

For the rest of the experience it's the same thing we've all been doing since the start of last gen.

I'm happy for those who are looking forward to it (that I like lol) but that's where it ends.

yea the forum was over run with conduit threads, but not nearly as bad as the DS forum with pokemon threads. man its a poke-fest.

but i'm looking forward to the conduit, so i'm happy you're happy for me

it works kinda like this, in my understanding: provided you exchanged codes with your friends, you'll be able to chat with them (as well with their friends) freely. In team split matches, you'll be able to chat with all members of your team, and in free for all matches, you'll be able to chat with the nearest five or six players.

This is a sexy looking game, I want to play it.

I don't know if this has been brought up yet, but details of the UK special edition of The Conduit, available form GAME, have been released and it looks much better than the US version.

> Embossed and silver-effect slip case
> 20 page hints and tips guide which will be packed into the slip case alongside the standard boxed game
> 3 unlockable items
> Re-skinned all seeing eye
> Agent skin for multiplayer
> Drone skin for single player

It seems to have everything you get, plus lots more. Also, game say it's out June 12, instead of the previously stated June 26th.

Man, that box art is sexy (pre-order version). I think I might pre-order it. I don't care if it's a day late, either way, I'm sure it'll take me a month to beat the game. I don't have time to play alot these days. This also might give me a reason to pick up another Wiimote, for a friend.

To bad they didn't add Mii's into the online, I think that would've been awesome. Can you imagine head-shotting your friend's Mii? lol

I hope Australia gets a Special Edition. Might have a browse around, and see what I can find.

i hope i can import a copy of the NA special edition... i'm not quite sure if that'll happen, but i can dream.

I think that games like The Conduit Will make the Wii a worth buying console for those that don't have one yet.

finally I need a shooter for my wii
