| kingofwale said: I get it when people say it's ON RAIL game. I really do. but how do you explain the failure of The Conduit? The game is hyped as AAA title by MANY MANY people here (Please, if you did, just admit it), and frankly, I can easily pull up many threads here with people predicting 2+ million LTD sales figure. I think the better question is... who here said they would buy this game FIRST-DAY and didn't.. and frankly, why not? the game is no AAA, but it's far better than 90% of other Wii games out there. |
One can't argue against the general quality of games on the Wii using Metacritic and then turn around and ignore it when they are trying to make an argument about "quality" core games that don't sell on the Wii.
If your statement is made based on your own personal impressions of the game, then fair enough (this comment isn't really directed at you) but currently, according to Metacritic, there are 190 games rated higher than The Conduit. It was hyped as being a potentially AAA game but it clearly fell significantly short in the eyes of most critics and among people who vote with their wallets.
