GC 2008: Piping hot trailer for The Conduit

by JC Fletcher { Aug 22nd 2008 at 9:00AM }

Not every Wii fan is an FPS person, and thus we may not be as fully attuned to the nuances of what makes an FPS badical, but we can recognize good Wii graphics when we see them, and we think that The Conduit is looking pretty great. This trailer, released for the Leipzig Games Convention, is all fancy atmospheric lighting effects and dudes (and alien dudes) getting shot up.

We're a bit troubled to see slowdown in the trailer, but that happens in every FPS running on a system that regular people can afford. It hardly detracts from all the blowings-up.

Saw this on IGN after it was posted. The Conduit is just looking better and better, I think, with every video/interview that I see. I can't wait for reports from people at PAX, since its supposed to be playable at Nintendo's booth.

looks great but when it comes out then what? we have to wait another 2 years for another great looking game that a company actually took time to make graphically? i hate that the wii gets overlooked so much when it comes to adult gamers, im tired of playing pokemon ranch.

"Day One Purchase"

I agree with you guys. Looks bitchin'. It was also great to see you fight enemies that aren't aliens with guns that aren't crazy. It's gonna have it ALL!
Although the AI didn't seem TOO too bright. Hopefully that'll change by the time the game comes out and your targets put up some challenge.
