Forums - Gaming - The Grinder wii????!!

let's face the truth, it will sell nothing, not with their zero promotion and support for their own work....

Some of you must be high if you think this game will be out for holidays. They have no publisher, and judging by the reception Conduit2 has they are not gonna get one. Sega sure as hell wont do it or they would have said something by now. Best case, they switch dev. to Wii U. WOrst case, we never hear from this game ever again. Seeing how "good" HVS is I dont think people will care



Given how Sega sent Conduit 2 out to die, they rather didn't even want to put that game out, why would they venture another?

The Grinder. Isn't this what they call a sandwich in some areas?

HVS don't deserve to make games. That's how bad they are.

Did you watch the trailer Kylie Dog???

It looked terrible and this is why it hasn't been released and probably won't be released.

Lol, i loved how hyped people were for this game... but seriously it doesn't look that good. :/



I think with Conduit 1 & 2's failure Sega isn't likely to publish this game. Sega already commented that Conduit 2 proved there isn't a market for hardcore games as they call them. Other publishers have made similar comments which leads me to believe that none of the big publishers will take a gamble on Grinder.

I fully expect the game to either get scrapped or upgraded to WiiU. Another option is for High Voltage to self publish the game or publish it with a much smaller publisher. maybe DreamCatcher would be interested.

BBut given how badly Wii software is selling right now, how the hardware sales are continuing to drop slowly but surely. I can't see a Wii release as much of a viable option. If they want to produce a successful game they would be best off releasing it for WiiU. But to do so would require at least another year of development, the whole game would almost need to be rebuilt!

I think this title may be forgotten. Cancelled and never heard of again considering High Voltage hasn't commented I don't think there is much of a chance of it coming. As for those saying stick to Dora, High Voltage had hoped to establish their own IP and be taken seriously as a developer. That could have happened if Conduit had been successful! They should have launched Grinder at the time they launched Conduit 2 and they should have waited till later to launch Conduit 2 likely as a 3DS game instead of Wii. Then they could have possibly been more successful!

With any sense they moved it to PS3 (I say PS3 only because no L4D on it).

With all the bluster both sides made about the Valve pair-up, you'd figure that would have been fixed by now
