Conduit is starting to get overhyped.

I will stop putting it on a pedestal as soon as all the rest of you stop putting all those other stereotypical sci fi shooters on ones as well.. which yes include Resistance 2 and Gears 2.

Personally the only reason I'm looking forward to Conduit is I need another online FPS for the Wii.

The biggest difference is those games come from developers who have released good games. I agree it is stupid and annoying to put them on pedastalls but there is at least some good reason for it.

 

True and I guess they do have games that have "proven" the franchise although I disagree with many of the reviews.  Resistance and GoW should have both gotten 7s and 8s on their reviews but of course no hardcore reviewer in their right mind would ever give stereotypical shooters a bad score unless it's Haze haha.  So I guess that warrants more trust in the sequels being good than an unproven developer releasing a game but still I think we've all see enough from the Conduit to know it's a decent shooter.  Haven't seen anything to warrant it as a great one but we know it's going to be decent.
