Information on The Conduit (videos and images included)

[MaxwellGT2000]

Just a couple of points with links coming up later but some things that were cleared up in a newer interview.

• Assuring everyone there is NO SPLITSCREEN the quote that everyone took to mean there was splitscreen was used out of context.
• With their engine and grpahics pushing the Wii like it is splitscreen is impossible as it's too taxing on the power of the Wii, which could hurt chances of splitscreen in The Conduit 2.
• The lead designer contradicted the original word about the Quantum 3 engine, which stated the engine would be licensed out as middleware and would help developers with graphics, the lead designer stated "we're no middleware company and have no plans to license out the engine at this time"  though they have said people have contacted them to license the engine.  Hopefully that may be a miscommunication with different parts of the studio or just his opinion cause that would be a great help to Wii development for third parties and a way to help kill shovelware.
• MotionPlus and WiiSpeak confirmed.

good discussion of The Conduit's tech, more info from far more knowledgeable people then I: http://forum.beyond3d.com/showthread.php?t=47707  It gets a bit off topic at the end but the start has some good info all around.

IGN has a couple of new gameplay videos and they're pretty long.  Shows off the game pretty well.

That's the whole conference playthrough about 16 minutes long.

Now there should be no reason for the bickering over The Conduit, either you like it cause it's a good effort on the Wii that looks nice or you don't cause it's not your type of game.

Also a Quantum 3 tech demo for the Wii, this is the engine that other developers can licsense and use on their own Wii games, and might turn out to be the Wii's own Unreal Engine of sorts if it takes off.
