Forums - Nintendo - Nintendo Power "The Conduit" Review - 6.5

megaman79 on 17 May 2009

Its alegedly a fake review. Gaf is investigating. Stay tuned.



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

Oh, and is this lag problem can be fix?

Since they got excellent control if they able to fix this lag problem then it good enough to play imo. :)

Never been waiting for this eagerly. In June Overlord, Let's Tap and Another Code are coming. The Conduit will stay on the shelves for a while.

Holy shit, that stings. Hard.

Not giving up on this game yet, though. I can't imagine the controls being anything less than satisfactory, and isn't a campaign of 8-10 hours pretty standard for FPSs ... ? I don't know, I just don't see anything that'd personally turn me off from the game... Though we've only gotten a quick summary of the review. Maybe the real review will shed more light on the reasons for the low score.

 

Yes it is, so I dont know why they take that time as a negative point :| If the story isnt good then beeing even in the 6 hours region is more then enough for me :| 8-10 hours is more then enough for a game like The Conduit :|

Most reviewer mention a FPS's short single player campaign in passing, almost as if it was a given, however in this case, I can see it as being a negative when combined with a broken multiplayer, this reduce the game from a good purchase to basically to a weekend rental until the multiplayer issue is fixed.

The AI is also another issue depending on how 'really bad' is defined here.

This is still a big ouchies, is Nintendo Power the official magazine or independent? I'd have expected this game to score in the mid lower to mid 80's with a few high 7's and low 9's tbh.

Tag:I'm not bias towards Nintendo. You just think that way (Admin note - it's "biased".  Not "bias")
(killeryoshis note - Who put that there ?)
Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true. 2nd UPDATE: I have no Switch 2. I am now behind
