If it is fake, it's a very good job. The layout looks good and the writing is perfect and exactly in the style you'd expect from a 'negative' Conduit review.

If true and backed up by other reviews soon, I'm cancelling my preorder...

EDIT: Spelling mistakes? It's fake.

That has been confirmed for ages...

Gamespots preview: The Conduit is one of the Wii's few first-person shooters, and we managed to score some time on its 12-player multiplayer mode. (a preview that is dated on 8 may).

Just saw the scan of the Nintendo Power review ->

Score : 6.5

Summary :

- Bad story and voice acting
- 8 hours SP campaign "doesn't last long"
- Excellent controls
- Terrible online lag
- Really bad AI
- Stunning though often inconsistent graphics

- Closing comment : "The Conduit is an admirable undertaking. You can really see the amount of effort and love High Voltage put into the game. But technical bravado is simply not enough to hold a game together, and The Conduit is ultimately a disappointing experience. It's just not very fun."

ruh roh :O

Knew this game was not going to be great, next time people ask me if you want to know which upcoming games will be good or bad

Possible lot of egg on face if game ends up with good reviews.

Hmm I might end up looking like a retarded monkey. Someone give me solid proof and I will end this thread. Could not care less about what people on gaming forums think about me though TBH. :/

hmmm so apparently this is actually a fake........hmmm shit just got real.

“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 damn you mean LESS! Shit sorry bud, I just remember it was lower than the average count of 32 and assumed it was 16. I thought your comment stem from the fact that you thought it would be more than 16 hahaha. I eat crow! I eat crow! cheers! :)
