Those screens look pretty hideous.
I kind of hate HVS. What have they done to deserve their reputation/earn the hype their games get?

Pretty much nothing.  The Conduit was painfully mediocre.

It was because they were the first developer saying that a) they were tired of developers treating the Wii like a second rate development platform, and b) they were going to give the system their all.

Unfortunately they hadn't had much experience making those kinds of games, mainly decent by unremarkable licensed games (they didn't make the buggy 50 Cent Bulletproof game on the consoles, but the merely okay one on the PSP), so The Conduit had solid controls and effects, but was merely decent in other things. But again, this was their first such game, and I don't believe in the "This sucked, so stop trying" idea, and apparently neither to they.

This may be why they are taking their time with The Grinder, to make sure it's a better game.
