"Setting their quality bar higher then even their original standards."

This wouldnt be very hard as even HV cant see that their game looks nowhere near as good as MP3.

I am very much interested in this game, its just that if people cant see the quality of the graphics they have they shouldnt be focusing on them as a selling point.

 

Well that's mostly talking about their quality of controls, gameplay, and value.  In the interview they were asking them how has all the publicity affected them and they basically said they wanted to make a high quality game for the core players out there and with all the publicity it's put a lot of pressure on them to set their already high standards higher. 

I know MP3 looks better at the moment mostly due to the art direction of the game itself but really The Conduit has 6 months of development ahead they details are not yet put into the games graphics so it's one of those "hold on" periods before you judge the graphics it's not as if the game is coming out in about 2 months.  Like the other points I put in they're basically done with the single player game the rest is going to be the details and multiplayer, and details mean touching up on framerate, textures, environments, visual effects.  Just give this game about 3 months and if they release some videos on it then it would be time to start seeing how it stacks up to a game like MP3.  (remember also that MP3 was looking really gamecube quality until about 3 months before release)
