If Conduit ever outsells Killzone 2 Sony fans will only remark 'Of course it did, look at the size of the Wii user base compared to PS3's. But Killzone is still a much bigger hit because a much higher % of owners bought it.'

I still expect Conduit to become a long term mainstay in the top 200 like RE4 and CoDWaW due to great word of mouth and no real competition in it's field. 1m all but guaranteed, 2m possible.

i may sound weird but i'm praying for conduit to reach at least 1mil. to me conduit is the doorway for many more serious games. pls guys buy this game. it's a good game. it's a start for the wii to get more games from third parties, where they will put a lot more effort.

It's first two weeks of sales are quite comparable to Mario Strikers Charged, which, in North America sold 114k first week, and 64k second week, before falling to less than 10k/week in a few months.

Mario Strikers Charged has gone on to sell 2m copies.

That being said, even if it had gotten 300k sales first week, some people would come in and call it a flop, comparing it to Halo and Killzone 2. People are going to again call it a flop, or say sales are terrible when it launches in Europe (no matter what the actual sales are), and again when weekly sales fall to below 10k/week.

Funny enough that's how much KZ2 sold at launch in the US.

People will buy it when its in the bargain bin. You can buy a high budget FPS for less than $50.

Yeah... and there was ton of The Conduit threads.

Either way Killzone 2 sold considerably more the first week in the US alone.

They aren't the fraction of the amount of Killzone 2 threads which we've been seeing since 2005.

And Killzone 2 had lackluster sales considering that it was the second coming.

And Conduit is going to have to ship up if HVS is going to be the next Rare.

Wait, Rare now, Rare Xbox days, Rare N64 days, or Rare SNES days.

If I had to list those in order it'd basically be right in the middle.

Rare SNES

Rare N64

HVS

Rare 360

Rare Xbox

And game wise I'd say I like The Conduit multiplayer more then Golden Eye or Prefect Dark multiplayer, so they're trying.

How does HVS' one mediocre shooter rank higher than one mediocre shooter, two mediocre platformers and one pretty good pinata simulation from Rare? :P

good point, although i think they were average platformers. Max is just so biased towards nintendo, don't take him seriously all the time.
