Topic: The Conduit

[Stogi]

That's not fair. Any press that compares the Conduit to 360 and or PC graphics as a means to judge the graphics is an idiot. Instead, use Mario Galaxy or MP3.

Its not but arent the gaming "media" still comparing other games to PS360 titles anyway? I know the last non-NWR review i read threw in one of the seemingly obligitory "while the art style is good, the limitations of the wii blah blah blah woulda looked better on an HD platform"

[NinGurl69 *huggles]

I definately would not say GTAIV is a bad game, but the perfect scores show how enamored the gaming media is with pretty games. I'm afraid that with High Voltage pushing the visuals so much in all their press information that the press will actually put more importance on comparing the visuals to 360/PC instead of Wii games.

HVS knows that talking about graphics is a cheap way to grab those first-day sales.  They'll withhold talk on the gameplay, for better or worse (better, if people are pleasantly surprised the game plays very well).

Yeah, why the **** bother including that kind of statement.  They have a Wii knowing it's not an HD platform.  Feasibility doesn't cross their minds?  Where are the complaints about PSX games not reaching the technical scope/depth of Ocarina of Time?

I guess I should approach reviews like

"while the font style is good, the limitations of the reviewer blah blah blah woulda written a better article had they have been a good writer, a player that can actually play video games, and someone with a realistic understanding of gameplay and game machine technology"

[ShyGuy]

I want every 360/PS3 review to state that it would look better on a PC.

[KDR_11k]

I want every game to get a 1/10 in graphics with a "would look better on a hypothetical holodeck" qualification.

[vudu]

I already pre-ordered it a month ago, when I still had money.  Amazon has become a good friend of mine recently. 

  Amazon doesn't charge you until they ship the game.

As do I... As do I...

[Mop it up]

This is why I could never be a reviewer, as all of my reviews would say something like "this game would be better if it had Mario in it."

My point? Everyone has a personal preference, and this, I believe, doesn't factor into a true reviewer's score of a game.

[GoldenPhoenix]

Easycure makes me mad.

[EasyCure]

Easycure makes me mad.

who doesn't though :p

[Stogi]

Easycure makes me mad.

who doesn't though :p

Mingy? hehe

Anyway, I really hope the wait hasn't been for nothing. This game is vying for the title of "Definite Wii FPS." I hope it at least plays well.

that's all i'm hoping as well. I don't carea bout the graphics so long as i can tell what i'm shotting at and where i'm being shot from, i just want the damn thing to play well.

[NinGurl69 *huggles]

I do have hopes for this games.  I hope that when I shoot a human enemy at point-blank range with an assault rifle, that the game provides a visual indication (some animation) that the bullet actually met and damaged the target, unlike the craptastic programming found in last gen's 007 shooters, which scarred me for life.

This is one reason why RE4 is so satisfying.  Even with just a pistol, you can get feedback from every shot, making it a joy to shoot a regular enemy in different places as they try to approach you, letting time pass between each shot just so you can see them flop around and animate.

This makes me even more weary to ever want to meet Pro IRL

[Stratos]

I think it would be fun.
His language already is very infectious. I can't look at the title Silent Hill Shattered Memories in the same light ever again. I almost changed the title of the thread to reflect the way he says it.

It would be fun to play Conduit with him and discussing the merit of Lotion Puss.

LMAO

I was thinking the same thing.

[ShyGuy]

Let's ask Rabicle if Pro talks like this in real life. Cause that would be awesome. It seems to be a combination of:

Dwight Schrute
Jamie Hyneman from Mythbusters
Bobcat Goldthwait

Besides the one exception i've noted above, that sounds awesome and completely changes my opinion. Now i'd love to hang out with Pro IRL.
