Me too. I want more games in this style that are done well, so I'll buy it regardless.

Divide the scores by ten. All the scores came from metacritic.

That is the opposite of what is true. It is suppose to be more robust than most Wii games.

Halo is garbage.

There's this thing called Goozex. You get points for trading games. I traded Rockband and I got 1000 points. When Conduit comes out I will have enough points to get it. Just one problem, the gameplay does seem crappy.

Still not convinced it is a genuine review. The scan looks a bit too tidy (very neat spine and folded corner) and metacritic haven't listed it as a review yet. Until the magazine is on the shelves it cannot be taken as being a true review.

GameTZ > Goozex

The Conduit does look promising, although, I'm little skeptical due to the hype, but we'll see when it launches.

I can verify it's legit. I received my Nintendo Power issue a couple of days ago in the mail; that exact review is there.

redneck E · 06-05-2009, 11:46 PM

I think Game Informer gave it a 9....which I trust way more than Nintendo Power. It just may get my 50 dollars.

Shadow*91 · 06-05-2009, 11:59 PM

Game Informer hasn't rated it yet.

My bad. Your right.

Shadow*91 · 06-06-2009, 12:19 AM

they probably will in the next issue. i plan on posting the score along with the highs and lows of the review

oogtra · 06-07-2009, 11:58 AM

Well, the conduit is a great game. If you ask me, I think more effort and time was put into it than your average 360 fps. First off, the wiis graphic capabilitys are horrible. When you compare the average wii games graphics to the conduits, you will notice the conduit looks much much better. That is alot of work put into there, as in a 360 game it doesnt take as long [dont get me wrong, it takes a while] as it does to make good graphics for the wii. High Voltage worked their arses off, and so far it looks like it is going to pay off. Also I want to see nintendo back on top, so all those halo addicts will stfu about how nintendo is for kids when more than half the players on live or no older than eighteen. This is a breakthrough for wii. The conduit will set the standard for the next fps for wii, so looks like a great beginning. It does look really similar to halo, but your fighting humans also. The website ratings are good, I mostly trust IGN.

Congratulations highvoltage, youve heard and satisfied the cries off wii gamers.

Disciple · 06-08-2009, 01:27 AM

I have read some previews of the game and I am very hyped about it (again :P). I think it's just a matter of opinions in the end of how it is rated. I think I'll definitely be getting this one, it is what a lot of us wii gamers were asking for and it's finally here (almost). Looks like the multiplayer will rock also. I want this game so bad!

Having features like a rank system and unlockables is always nice, but if the core gameplay sucks (bunch of people running, jumping and shooting instead of actually aiming) it'll be a huge disappointment.

Godwind · 06-15-2009, 06:38 PM

If you want to follow the scores coming up for the conduit

Skorp · 06-16-2009, 10:59 AM

I would guess an 8.5 from IGN and 75 overall on metacritic. Sadly you could tell from the start it wasn't going to be a 9+ game as much as I wanted it to be.

stickmode · 06-17-2009, 03:00 PM

I give The Conduit a 9.5 score and IGN too for sure!!
It's the Best Shooter on the Wii to date and can compete for Game of the Year along the other xbox360/ps3 games.
It's now the second best seller on GameStop begin TigerWoods2010...
It's clear: The Conduit is the Halo3 and Halo

DST KILLER!!
I hope will beat the 8.1 millions copies of Halo3!!

For fucks sake.
Please stop with your annoying optimism.
The Conduit might be good but what your saying is ridiculous and embarrassing.
Please just move onto something else.

Godwind · 06-17-2009, 07:07 PM

Another review came and it is from Official Nintendo Magazine UK.

Nowhere near classic status, but this is a welcome companion to "Metroid Prime: Corruption." [July 2009, p.78]
