I found 4 of the images included in the review at IGN
In the same page...XD

I haven't had NP for a long time, but I was wondering if they ever use exclusive images, or if they are allowed to copy paste from other sites, lol.

On the other hand, if you look closely, you can see the texture of a magazine page. The fake review didn't have this, so the 8 might be the real score after all. 

Those pictures sound fishy too.

If they wanted to get really elaborate in the fake, they could have printed out their fake page, and then scanned it.

Good detective work, I guess it is another fake.

The strange thing is that the guy who scanned the review is the siteowner of conduit website. Why would he do that? It seems he's got little reason to lie. I'm cool with an eight and all that. I have no idea if this is now the real review.

 

 

I'm a member on that forum and Tempest(owner of that forum) is someone you can trust, it's one of the best sites if you want info on the conduit. I don't know if it's real though, but like I said, I see no reason for Tempest to lie about this.

But the June issue has been out for a while now. It does not have this review.
I hope he meant July. Else, he's dead.

Something else, all the pictures in the review are cropped.
If you aligned it with the IGN pictures, it would cut off the logo.
On every picture...

 

Example.

You know, the internet is a fun place with lot's of crazy rumors and knowledge. But when you want some straight facts or answers, she often kicks you in the balls. Sometimes i hate her.



In the wilderness we go alone with our new knowledge and strength.

if this is fake review again I will kill some one.But the real question is why are these fake reviews picking on the Conduit exclusively ? Does someone hate the game that much or is bizarre and original marketing scheme from HVS.



I love fighting games !!! Come on challenge me !

Meh, reviews from gonintendo are shoddy at best. But that said I think it would be advisable to wait for more reviews to calibrate the average score to this first one. 8.0 Just doesn't seem correct, I reckon it will break 88% average... hopefully *fingers crossed*

This is so obviously fake.



mikescoff on 22 May 2009

NP always inflates the scores of Nintendo developed games. So an 8 from them is like a 7 from everyone else. Horrible.



im_sneaky on 22 May 2009

I doubt this is true... I mean NP would give TC a 9 even if it sucked, they rate hyped games so high in order to keep with hype...
