What make it fake? It could be true.

STOP POSTING THIS.

How do you know it's fake? The scan looks pretty real to me. I didn't see any of the other threads you guys say were made.

yeah, it could be true. i think the people who are saying it's fake are people who don't like their anticipated game getting bashed by a critic like this.

You don't see the threads because to the best of my knowledge the review was proven fake so I locked them to stop people from being tricked by the title.

Props to Fernando Rocker for uncovering this (in the comments section of the linked N4G), but apparently someone came forth and took credit for the review as a fake

Here is the user's "confession"

"Yes, it's a fake. Hopefully we all know that now.

Why did I do it? Take it as a valuable lesson.

It took hours before somebody caught on; most people just looked at the score and moved on. People only really took notice after somebody else mentioned that there were errors (which, by the way, were intentional...I'll get to that later).

So what's my point? I'm stressing the importance of the review itself, rather than the score. Editors write the review for a reason: You're meant to read it.

People put way too much emphasis on scores these days. Most just ignore the content within the review altogether (Proof? Just look at how many people fell for it).

Many cried "flop confirmed!" or "fail!" without even reading the review, as if ONE REVIEW is the be-all and end-all of how a game will turn out.

If you actually took the time to read and analyze the review, you would see that there were mistakes all over the place. Pictures that were months old, spelling and grammatical errors, incorrect information. I even put a hidden message somewhere in there (which I believe is yet to be discovered). Anyone who actually took the time to READ the review could easily catch them.

So if you embarrassed yourself earlier by falling for it, hopefully you will learn something from this. And if you didn't get a chance to read the review, but you know that you often find yourself only looking at the scores, maybe it's time you take a step back and realize that there's more to a review than the number next to it.

Apparently, this "review" spread across the internet like wildfire. I don't have accounts at any other websites, so if anybody wants to copy-paste this somewhere else, please feel free.

And remember, games are meant to be played. Let's just enjoy them.

Have a great day!"

Apparently a ruse to draw out The Conduit haters.

so this one should be locked to, its string a bees hive for no reason now that it has been proved to be a fake review

ok, just wanted to see the proof for myself to make sure. I will continue to lock threads such as these.

Whew! What a relief! I'm REALLY looking forward to this game. I hope it's awesome.

I played the conduit and it is definitely better than a 6.5 (I give it a 8.9)
