Why would anyone but Wii owners care about The Conduit?

I may be in the minority, but what is the Conduit even about? From what I have picked up about it it is a FPS that looks really good on the Wii. I indirectly own a Wii and am not really that into this game at all.

 

Well it's not even out yet, so we don't know a lot about it besides it's about a conspiracy story based on secret goverment agency and space aliens.  It's assumed by many that it will be good, but as others have pointed out HVS hasn't really had a real strong title before, and so the developer might be over stating the quality.

If it helps, think of it as a combination of Killzone 2 and Metal Gear Solid 4, with a little Ratchet & Clank thrown in.  Then scale that back a little or you may be setting yourself up for disappointment.

 

Well, your description makes me think not of Duke Nukem, as someone wrote, nor of what you wrote, but of Half-Life! Nothing wrong about it, anyway, I liked very much both the Duke and Half-Life.

 

 

Yeah...  does better remind me of a cross between duke nukem and half-life too...  However, I was trying to go only by games in hist list of owned games, assuming he likes those games... Either way, it's hard to say until it's out and we can actually play it.

So this is one of those games that boasts nothing new and just a combination of other ones then? Unless I am mistaken there have been recent games that got docked because of that. I actually do own half life and all the ones after it. Don't get me wrong I like Half life, but if that is what The Conduit is like then I think it is a pass then. Maybe one of my roomates will get it for their Wii and then I can watch them play it and if I seem interested play it for free. This kind of seems like one of those games that people are hyping that could be setting themselves up for disappointment.
