That's probably an understatement.
That too great art direction doesn't always translate into profits. They're going to need a really good marketing department to hit their break-even point.
RE: THE CONDUIT(xbox graphics on wii) - Kei - May. 07, 2009
That is awful. Odd as well, because I thought I remembered seeing other screenshots of The Conduit that looked MUCH better graphically.
That being said, the game does appear to be solid, but it is hard to judge right now.
RE: THE CONDUIT(xbox graphics on wii) - Khel - May. 07, 2009
I wouldn't be surprised partway through development they realized they were running out of funds and had to cut corners.

Joystiq hands-on with The Conduit online multiplayer Wrote:the visuals were clearly not on par with the offline campaign's.http://www.joystiq.com/2009/05/06/joystiq-hands-on-the-conduit-online-multiplayer/
So, I'm not losing it. The graphics are indeed worse in the online component compared to the single player campaign.

They suck in both modes so whatever.

It's sad that this thing will sell better then Klonoa. A game that is good, unique, and captivating coupled with good visuals. If you have a Wii and need something to play (meaning everyone who has a Wii) pick up Klonoa (it's only $30 in the US) and wait for Red Steel 2 instead of this. Klonoa's a hardcore title that isn't rated M or about Head Shots, thus it will bomb. This is about the boom headshots, thus atleast 500,000 worldwide is a given.

This.
I'm predicting 6's and 7's (out of 10, obviously) at best when the reviews hit for this game.

Yeah that video is a perfect example of why shooters will never work on Wii. Look at him flailing around.
I'm sorry but anyone who prefers using motion controls in a shooter is on crack.
RE: THE CONDUIT(xbox graphics on wii) - MuchWow - May. 07, 2009
because your weapon is flailing around playing shooters with the wiimote is bad
are you gonna miss the awesome pointer that makes the shooter games as most realistic as possible just for this silly reason.your wrong roan.

You read my post wrong -- I don't dislike motion controls because they make you look stupid while you play, I couldn't care less about that.
I dislike motion controls for shooters because they seem really unneeded and frivolous. When I said "look at him flailing around" I was pointing out the fact that he seems confused, doesn't know what motions do what and what buttons to press.
Point is, motion controls are supposedly there to simplify gaming, when more often than not they do nothing but complicate it further in games like this.
RE: THE CONDUIT(xbox graphics on wii) - MuchWow - May. 07, 2009
even if its more complicated.
its so much more fun than regular controllers. especially in shooters.
admit it!

pegasis i swear SHUT UP. i am sick of watching you try to force everyone to like the same carp you like. you don't get to just say everyone's dissenting opinion is regardless. just
if this is how you're going to be
RE: THE CONDUIT(xbox graphics on wii) - MuchWow - May. 07, 2009
am not trying to convince him
wiimote being realistic for shooters is a fact.
am just seing what is his opinion about this.
sorry.

Have you ever held a gun?! o.o
The only similarity is that you have to aim by pointing.
RE: THE CONDUIT(xbox graphics on wii) - MuchWow - May. 07, 2009
witch will make it more realastic than aiming with the analog stick. so its the most realistic until now. IMO

this is like claiming that the act of sitting down is more analogous to riding a real horse than standing up straight
neither of them recreate the experience with any sort of realism
RE: THE CONDUIT(xbox graphics on wii) - Roan - May. 07, 2009
I don't care about realism when it comes to controls in video games. I care about convenience and ease of use. If a game's controls suck then it generally lessens the fun of the game. You shouldn't have to consciously think about what buttons to press when you're playing a game. If a game has good controls then you should forget that you're even holding a controller while you play.
I'm definitely not opposed to innovation when it comes to controls, but motion controls for shooters just seem to complicate the experience. (In my experience with Red Steel and Metroid Prime 3)
RE: THE CONDUIT(xbox graphics on wii) - Bey Brad - May. 07, 2009
Roan hit the nail on the head. Ideally, the controller shouldn't be about imitating real life actions, it's about connecting brain actions to the game as quickly as possible. So, while it may be more "realistic" to aim a remote at a TV in order to replicate a gun, it's arguably less immersive. Game controllers have been designed so that everything is accessible to you at any time, that you can map your thoughts to buttons and connect it quickly.
