USA Today: Hands-on with 'The Conduit'

Eric Nofsinger is aware his studio's first-person shooter for the Nintendo Wii, The Conduit, may not compete graphically with the likes of Call of Duty or Killzone 2. However, he thinks the game can dominate in other areas.

"We wanted to beat the other consoles on control," said Nofsinger, calling the motion controls for the game "more intuitive" than the dual thumbsticks used on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

Based on a brief playthrough of The Conduit, published by Sega, it seems developer High Voltage Studios has created precise shooting controls, but what's most impressive is the level of customization players have to adjust to their style.

im really curious as to how well this game will sell once it's released

Seferoth755593d ago

Knowing you, if it sells you will ignore it. if it doesnt it will be the next madworld for you and you'll shout about it while ignoring anything that sells. Typcial troll behavior.

ChickeyCantor5593d ago

LOL, sef, seriously, whats with all the attacks?

ZoidsRaven5592d ago

You know sells DON'T matter right?
It's all in how good the game it's self does, and we will see.

Seferoth75 don't attack him yet he is asking a valid question. I'm betting two things happen Hatch. The game sells very slow. There may be a push but as more and more people get to try this game you get a mario kart effect. You see a lot of these HD games will not be out for a while and every one has a Wii even if they claim not to play it.

Many of you guys will see the skill and addiction of having great controls on a FPS and that is what will hook them. The graphic whore will stay on the HD console till they have a solution, and guess what they will hate that solution because they are not playing games for the skill.

What is funny is I think MS just advertised for the motion+. There will be plenty of hate now but one they get the games in front of people motion+ is going to win people over just like the Wii did when it was released.

Sef if you remember the Wii is the only console that did not start this gen off with a fanboy following. We all expected the worst and we just got the return of the NES and it rocks!

Let these guys hate, if they stay that way then they will leave gaming. That will only make gaming better you know. Eventually hateful people have heart attacks. I'm willing to wait for that to happen. Mean while enjoy the E3 some thing tells me the true next gen has just started.

Splatoon 2 Shows Off What Wii Shooters Should Have Been

There’s a consensus about Splatoon 1 that cannot be disputed: motion controls are the way to play. The Wii U Gamepad had its many problems on the system as a whole, but along with the way in which the touch screen was implemented in the first game like I mentioned in my last piece, using the Gamepad’s gyroscope was deemed a superior way to play compared to traditional joystick control.
