The Conduit actually looks pretty decent from this video.

The AI looks bad and the weapons are blah so far, but other then that it looks decent imo. I won't be getting it because there will be superior shooters available by then but for Wii only owners who don't have any FPS' you should probably pick this up.

i dont think this looks all that good, the character models suck, the enviroments are bland and the weapons dont look good plus the A.I sucks they just stand and shoot. graphically metroid prime 3 looks better.

I'm shocked how little love this title is getting. That was a solid video. I see people complain about the graphics, but it looks better than a lot of Wii games I see. I see people complain about the AI, but the demos of MGS4 and Killzone2 didn't exactly show brilliant AI- the game is probably on easy. Really? :?

there is'nt much you can say about the graphics though really, sure its better than what alot of wii games looks like but thats not saying much and so it looks like its missing something to make it stand out from the rest of the fps game. imo i think it just looks bland, the character models could be so much better than that and the guns again. the problem with the A.I is when you watch them shoot they just stand there, I mean your in a gun fight so just stand there:?. I do hope it turns out to be a good game as the wii needs a good fps, MOH:H2 was great but it had its share of problems.

I don't think we can judge the AI from videos. As far as the graphics are concerned, they're at least vivid, and the lighting is not half bad. I think it would look impressive first hand. All of what I'm saying is speculation, but I just don't think the game deserves all that negativity right off the bat.

im keeping an eye on it.

id love a good FPS for my wii and i really hope HV deliver. i dont think its going to be a revolution or anything....but if it delivers a good looking and fun FPS experience then HV will be head and shoulders above everyone else bar ninty on the wii FPS front. hell delivering that would be a revolution in itself since no other 3rd party dev seems to be up to the job.

the vid shows a few problems with animation and some narly sound effects but the game has quite a bit of development time to go. hopefully those issues will be fixed. the latest vids are a definate step up from the april vid mind.

on a side note, if HV intend to licence the engine that that would also be a very nice thing for the wii. the other platforms have benefited from middleware and engines like UE3 which make it easier to get those the PS3, 360 and PC firing on all cylinders. the wii has had to mostly settle for slightly modified PS2 and xbox tech when it comes to 3rd parties. an eninge that deals with alot of the scary stuff would be a god send for the wii.

Wii shooters are strangely lacking on the system, and IMO has one of the better control schemes. (MP3 did this great!)

I just hope its just not a lot of hype. All we hear is graphics graphics graphics, and thats only big deal because Wii graphics are so inferior potential wise. So it better have more to offer than just looking like one of the better Wii games. I would like to start hearing praise about gameplay.

You are right the game does indeed get more hate then it deservers, I do believe this game does have potential but I am skeptical at the same time. I want this to be a good game but is it just me or does this game look better in screenshots than what we see in videos.

It looks really good for a wii game. The guns shoot. The enemies die. I say make the AI more challenging and give it a decent story and I would call it an 8.

I was expecting it to look bad but it actually looked pretty good. No doubt most hate for this game is just because it's on the Wii. It's not gonna be Halo 3, or COD4 quality, but it should be a good Wii game.

I think i played this game on my xbox 4 years ago :lol:GootHimp
yyyyhh... no, that wasn't even a bit funny.

Well the bar for shooters is really high at the moment, and there's more to come. The game would have to be really really good to stand out (same goes for any upcoming shooter).

Looks fun. The turning, aiming, and controls look really smooth. Nothing mindblowing but a solid title. Let's hope the final product satisfies.

I can understand people's problems with this game looking unoriginal and bland, but that's sorta the point. WE HAVE NO TRADITONAL SHOOTERS ON THE WII YET. This IS orginal because it's kinda a first for the wii and can prove that traditional shooters will work. It's not falling back on some gimmick or a crazy setting or wierd art direction to get attention. It's just trying to be the the first solid traditional scifi shooter for the wii.

MP3 was a scifi game, but it wasn't exactly traditional being a FPA and all.

It's an average FPS game that gets all of it's hype based on the fact that it looks pretty good compared to most other Wii games, which is massively hypocritical considering the Wii fans arguements that graphics cannot make a game.

You mean like the hype MP3 got from it's controls that were going to "change the way we play FPS on consoles forever"? MP3 was forgotten less than a month later when everyone was playing COD4 and The Orange Box. (the controls were actually pretty terrible) If a generic sci-fi FPS with passable visuals and tacked on motion controls warrants hyping, then the Wii software lineup is in even worse shape than I thought.

I can see that... this game is made from the game engine that guaranteed "PS3 quality graphics" I recall.

The game does look quite good for a Wii game, but at the same time... the video shows a guy running through a mansion, shooting back suits / sunglass wearing enemies, and aliens. Just taking a shot in the dark, but I bet the storyline will be kinda blah-zay.

But, it looks promising enough.

For Wii only owners, sure. I can't see anyone who owns that and or both of the others bothering with it anytime soon. Maybe late next year out of the bargain bin for nine bucks.

the controls were great, yeah it has some slight problems but other than that it worked good and did lead to even better controls on MOH:H2

Metroid Prime 3 was brilliant. IGN gave it 9.5, and Gamespot gave it 8.5 (which was too low IMO).

I don't know which is more sad,

Sheep (and Sheep that HIDE as multi-console owners) who are desperately supporting this game?

or

The piss-poor development "talent" of this game.........on a very very cost efficient, 8 year old, dev friendly console?
