Clearly, The Conduit has amazing textures and graphics. What's that, you say? It's unfair to compare a 15 year old game with one that won't be coming out for months? I agree! Hey, it's only fair that we compare The Conduit to the fellow games on the system! So why not pick a shooter title that didn't even pride itself on its graphics in the first place? Or maybe you could pick a launch title (because we all know that launch titles have amazing graphics). Or we can ignore the fact that the majority of graphically impressive Wii games look poor in screenshots (remember the shots for Super Mario Galaxy?) and just focus more on the gameplay which is supposed to be the saving grace for what looks like an otherwise cliched game. The story looks very boring (not that shooters ever have good stories anyways). Not only that, but there are a bajillion shooters on the market with better graphics, and The Conduit doesn't even have a beautiful or interesting style to make up for it. A lot of Wii games manage to look good because they have beautiful or engaging environments to make up for the lack of graphical muscle. The Conduit has none of this.

I'm sure it will be a fun game and it will be a definite purchase for me, but let's just not argue about the graphics. Who cares how the textures look, really?
