The first has pretty poor reviews. The second is being developed by the same studio. Are their many games this gen in which the first interation has scored in the 60 bracket for the sequel to then reach into the 80's? (perhaps even 90's if Black Ops scores well.)

It's a steep mountain to climb. If I were a betting man, my money would surely be on Black Ops.


Red Steel = 63, Red Steel 2 = 80

i'd say Conduit 2 has a good chance of doing something similar. High Voltage are going at Conduit 2 in a similar fashion to what Ubisoft did with Red Steel 2. Improvements are being made to almost every aspect. Graphics have been overhauled so environments are no longer dull and even contain new effects, the storytelling is going to be more cinematic, more multiplayer modes and the online fixed. heck even the shining point of the first game (controls) are being improved.

however having said that, i think Black Ops will score better. Treyarch are doing marvelous work on the Wii. the CoD blockbuster movie style appeals more to the people who review these games. even though MWR scored less than WaW, i believe tha Black Ops will do better than both.  it's improved everything from those games and is releasing at the same time as the HD versions. that means reviewers 'Wii is crap' shades won't be as thick as they were when reviewing MWR.

i wouldn't doubt GoldenEye getting a decent score either. Eurocom did a great job with Nightfire. and with their last Wii game (Dead Space Extraction) being so good, i'd say they're likely to pull it off. people will probably moan on about how 'it's not the same as those days when i was confused about my weiner' but i think there will be more who will appreciate it.

i think the sales order will be:

Call of Duty: Black Ops > GoldenEye 007 > Conduit 2

with GoldenEye & Conduit 2 getting a slightly lower score than Black Ops
