Wii Music is my life. I would take a bullet for Wii Music.

i would take a bullet for Wii Music as well :  P

Mario Party 8 is also great and Conduit is great as well!

 

and i'm sure that reviewer is very proud to give the lowest score to the conduit, but at least he confirms that reviewers suck

this review confirms one more that what i said in my thread about press score VS gamer score is true for Wii games

LoL, at the people saying there's no Wii hate and we play the victims, reviewers suck

 

IGN turns out to be the best!

*yes, i know it's his opinion but it's like saying Sharika is bad singer



don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^

I already gave up on these guys, but not being able to customize controls just show how "hardcore" he is



the words above were backed by NUCLEAR WEAPONS!

It's kind of ironic that Gerstmann says the game is slow paced since FPSs tend to have among the fastest pacings ever in a game.

Meet Jeff Gerstman:

Two things:

1)  The above video is the funniest thing that I have seen all week.  Thanks Shanobi.

2)  Target Terror is as good as the Conduit?  I'll have to pick that up immediately.

9chiba, looks like you are new to the videogaming world. That guy Gerstmann was involved in a big scandal with Gamespot.

Ah! THAT'S where I know the name from. Jeff Monistat Gerstmann.

Poor reviews like this will slow sales, but enough people bought the game that the word will get out that it's a far better game than the average review. I feel sorry for all the underrated games that no one knows about... These poor reviews are actually helping to kill the HD consoles. The conduit will have long legs and good sales, and when a 2 star game does well it's realling telling publishers this is a genre they need to make more of for the Wii.

When you hate something you cant give an objective view about it, that's perhaps the big fuzz about it, but maybe that's just me and any random guy could start reviewing games.

The same could be said about someone who loves something as well.  I think the trick with making reviews meaningful is to only pay attention to reviews that are written by people with the same values as you, for example, if you don't care about graphics, then reading a review from someone who's a graphics whore won't be very relevant to you.


You said it exactly right and this is why it's so ridiculous to get worked up over all these rviews.

I just bought the conduit yesterday, I am done the third mission. I don't play many FPSes on wii as honestly there aren't many, Having only played Prime 3 before. At first when i booted up the conduit it was shaky and very very hard to control... but after fiddling with the controls... i have over 78% shot accuracy on mobs, and trust me I run and gun (force of habit from being very good at Counter Strike)... I don't take my time like most people to really aim or anything... there is no way i could do that on Dual analogs. Frankly, I can't imagine touching dual analogue control setups again (apart from CoD6 lol). Controller hate and bias in reviews are the easiest way to see you are reading a shit review for the conduit.

not necessarily, when you have sites like IGN giving a more positive review. IGN holds a lot more weight than most sites.
