They shouldn't be inspired. Third party should be ashamed. Many of those companies actually put effort into the weakest system last generation, but this gen they are being some of the biggest slackers around.
I am really looking forward to this game. I love the l4d zombie horde co-op. It was great, but I'm not really a zombie fan. I however do like vampires, werewolves and monster far more. However This game to be really good needs to have player made campaign maps. Otherwise I suspect this game will do ok.
Here it is. The Conduit won't due well because it's a plain generic game. In the field of generic FPS games it's competing against the likes of Halo. Since it's the same market. Console shooter fans won't leave the 360 just for The Conduit. However The Grinder will do much better. The 4 FPS monster co-op games are still a quite market with only 1 other game. This type of game can appeal to more players than a straight FPS. It's different. The Co-op element goes a long way with this. Especially if they manage split screen online(2 Wiis, 4 players). Due the untapped type of shooter this game is it has an opportunity to bring in more players who are looking for this type of game than say The Conduit. I'm one of them.
Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.
