I'm not of those people who has pre-ordered this game nor will buy it first day but i do feel the developers have done enough promotion, listened to fans and put in enough obvious effort to make this game worthy of consideration. Will it be great, honestly i don't think so, but on the other hand it just might.
Why some PS3 and 360 owners feel the need to put this game down is beyond me. Not every FPS that comes out can be better than the one that came before it, even on the HD systems, but wouldn't you still consider playing it if it's a good game and something that you like?
If you have already made the decision that this game can't possibly be comparable in overall experience to good shooters on the HD system then i'm sorry for you, because that attitude WILL deprive you of access to games that you otherwise might quite like.
If i owned all three systems and had played the best HD shooters then i would probably wait for this game to come out before i decided whether it was worthy of purchase. If i was a HD-only owner and saw no reason to purchase a Wii up to this point then this game would not change my mind, because as has been pointed out the HD systems have several excellent shooters. If you are in this category then why do you even care enough about The Conduit to make the point of putting it down. If the game is really so inconsequential as you would have us believe why do you bother?
