New screens for the title have been released
We sit down with Eric Nofsinger and talk The Conduit, The Grinder, and much more in this exclusive interview.
Had such high hopes for the game. It makes more sense now than ever, especially in the digital marketplace.
Normally, the end of the year is a slow time for game releases. Everyone who’s anyone has already launched during the holiday season, and the stragglers don’t seem to get much attention. Then again, all those folks that picked up new consoles for Christmas need something to play, so maybe there’s some cleverness in a last-week release.
Who knows? Either way, these games are coming out just before the clock rolls over to 2013.
oh type 0, maybe one day i'll be able to play you in english. <3 the demo was so awesome. maybe once SE is done with their obsession with lightning we might finally get you, if is psp or vita port idc, JUST COME OVAH HERE!
I also downloaded and played the demo and it was so good. So good that I wish I never bothered downloading it in the first place because now I know how much of a good thing I am missing.
I can't find any US release for any of these on amazon or gamestop...I assumed they were for US because they all had ESRB ratings except for the iOS games.
Type-0 is listed as canceled on gamefaqs as well, and was released in October in Japan. POssession and the Humans is also listed as canceled. Author game is cancelled in the US it looks like. The Grinder is cancelled for Wii, and TBA for 360. Unchained blades looks to be a digital title releasing on the 1/3...
Is The Grinder still headed to Nintendo Wii? If this survey is correct, the answer is "yes"
It was promised this year.
So yeah i think they will ( sega will )
Conduit 3 is basically confirmed for Project cafe i think.
Im not surprised if they do the same with The grinder ( which looks tons better!)
The look they are going for is great, I just hope the online is flawless. HVS making this game a 4 player online co-op on Wii is just great. Good the Wii gets a game like this.
It already looks a lot more interesting than The Conduit, imo, but I'm more of a horror fan anyway. The guns could use a little sprucing up, but maybe the story they're telling only allows for real world weapons.
One thing that seems fairly obvious from the screens is that they're NOT just throwing a horror skin on The Conduit. Thus far all the screens seem to focus on large mobs of weaker enemies without ranged attacks. Could be a cool change of pace.
is a long ways off*sigh*
It looks good Im interested because Conduit is a decent game. Im enjoying it but doesnt seem to keep my attention. Looks like their actually trying to put more work into the engine. Honestly if they could either make smarter enemies or just do a lot of enemies at once Id be happy with this game.
I read elsewhere they'll be using a pretty grainy filter on some portions, so it looks like they're trying to cross L4D with HOD:Overkill.
Maybe it'll work, but it's gotta be a lot less derivative. You can charitably call Conduit a bit of a homage to the FPS genre, and since it's HVS first real big project, I give 'em some leeway (plus, the online rocks). My purchase was as much for the game as for other developers to take note that you can be successful with a new IP instead of mini games.
I don't regret the purchase at all, but Grinder is gonna have to be something special for me to pick it up. Otherwise, there's Gladiator A.D...
