frybread, don't you tired of fanboy threads about how great MGS4 is (really, it's great, but not THAT great). So as a counterweight and if you're TRUE fanboy you should praise this game as smth never seen before ;)

PS: but honestly, I agree with you)

Seriously guys when I got back here I thought the bashing would be done by now, I feel like I'm in an old folks home with demented people, talking about the same issue over and over and over and over again *sigh*. Only things you're interested in reading is the bashing and trolling and by holding a competition which person bash the best. To say this... ITS PATHETIC! This is a freaking multi platform website for fuck sake, act multi platform!

Why do people have this crazy idea in their head that once a company makes a crap game, they can never make a good one, or that if they make a good one they can never do any harm.

But when they make 40+ bad games, and zero good ones, I think it's safe to start assuming a few things.  Like that maybe there's a good amount of enthusiasm, but a lack of talent.

 

HVS is saying exactly what we want to hear.  We all want developers to take Wii seriously.  We all want to play a big budget FPS with the Wiimote + Nunchuk, and maybe some balance board thrown in for good measure.

I just can't lie to myself.  This game, despite the absolute best intentions by its makers, doesn't deserve the hype.

 

I just looked at the games HVS has made, and it looks to me like they were hired to mostly make liscensed games. Each time the publisher deciding what HVS would do.

It looks to me like HVS wasn't happy doing that, so they decided to do something different with The Conduit. They had no obligations to make crap games for THQ, or Take-Two Interactive with this game.

So this game doesn't fit the mold of the previous games they have made, hence why you can't compare it to them.

 




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

So you really cant tell frybread, this game could be suck but it already built a hype about it the reason why IGN gives COD: WAW a lower score than MOH: H2. This is like second coming of Christ walking on water for us Wii owners after all

That's my problem, as Wii owners our standards are so low!  Wii is the #1 selling console, it has the absolute best control scheme for shooters (outside of mouse+keyboard), so why are all of our FPS hopes placed into a small budget game from a bad company?

Admit it - if it were being made for 360 or PS3, hype levels would be nonexistent.

Touche good sir



PC + Wii owners unite.  Our last-gen dying platforms have access to nearly every 90+ rated game this gen.  Building a PC that visually outperforms PS360 is cheap and easy.    Oct 7th 2010 predictions (made Dec 17th '08)
PC: 10^9
Wii: 10^8

Save your hopes for when Valve decides to do that Wii project.   We all know this platform has everything needed to create the best console FPS, just don't judge it by an over-hypped, cliche-ridden game from an unknown developer.

 

I think Im gonna do that, the Source engine will be awesome for the Wii, even they say they will made a kiddy game, its OK as long as its Valve...

And when it flops, PS3 will be a laughing stock, and publishers are going to lose faith in the PS3 Hardcore. Whose fault is this?

Yours. You decided to hold one single game up as our only hope of hardcore gaming. You decided to talk about Killzone 2 as if it were the next Half Life or Gears of War.

Just sober up for a second, stop looking at the screenshots, and consider who is making this game.



Here's a list of AAA games Guerilla has made:






(crickets)



Here's a list of FPS games Guerilla actually made original content for:

Killzone 70 avg score
Killzone Liberation 73 avg score
Shellshock Nam: 58 avg score



Guerilla makes bad games, not the worst - I'm sure they're one or two steps above shovelware, but they're bad.



And yes, it's true they're making an honest attempt to become a legit gaming company. They've done some great things graphically and control-wise. They're putting their hearts into this game, but come on, it's their first real try, and putting all of your PS3 hopes into this one game is RETARDED.







.

lol, pure epic win.

OT: everything i've seen/heard about this game has been positive.  oh sure, HVS is unproven but i'm willing to give them the benifit of the doubt...at least until reviews start rolling in.  it's not like there are better fps games on the market for the wii.

Touche good sir

I dont even care for the graphics to tell you frankly, I do care that the COD 4 engine already made to for the Wii than the Quantum engine is being made even we dont know yet what the finish engine would be.

What I do care is that a 3rd party developers/publishers are really trying on the Wii right now, but with Activision with COD: WAW and MArvelous, SEGA and Namco Bandai with their 2009 titles and EA with Skate it and even Ubisoft with Shaun White snowboarding do I even care The Conduit right now?

Well done!

The only quibble I have is that PS3 fans have held up many, many other games as their hope for hardcore gaming.

Seriously though, thanks for the laugh.

Its called COD: WAW just please support it, this is COD 4 engine we're talking about here. What do you really want more a unknown title with unknown engine that we dont know if the graphics will be good or not or a established franchise with engine used in PC and HD consoles?
