The conduit is freaking awesome. i don’t understand why people are complaining that its just another generic FPS. Who cares, we love FPS and this looks to be sweet

Mario & Luigi 3 looks good, i have Partners in Time so i will probably get the new game.
Let’s Tap looks intruiging and weird at the same time. So, To play we need to hit a box (or a surface) with an upside-down Wii Remote on it…
The interactiveness of it kinda reminds me of the Eye Toy for the PS2.

Mario and Luigi 3 looks great. I loved part 2 on the DS.
Punch out looks very old school, and also great. But I wonder if they have flushed out the game more since its origins, or will it be a Wi Ware game?
The Conduit does not impress me visually, as I own the X-box 360 and am anticipating games like GOW2. However, I do look forward to more info on the CONTROLS using the Wii mote. This could be what makes me buy the game. Looks nice for the Wii but I want to know how it plays.

I agree: what would sell The Conduit are the Wii controls, since the graphic engine, although impressive, is what you normally get in the 360 already. They should emphasize that more.
Age of Empire: Mythologies looks astonishing! Age of Kings was one of the best turn-based strategy games on the DS, and this one looks like it’s going to be better.

To let all who are inquiring about The Conduit’s controls, they are fully customizable, and customized in game. Sensitivity can also be adjusted as well so you can tweak it to your correct reaction, etc.
I tried it out at PAX and it was amazing with just the default settings.
Also, the HUD will also be customizable.
High Voltage informed me that they are wanting to know what gamers really want for an FPS in the sense of controls/experience, so they’re making sure it pleases FPS gamers as well as the ability to get people hooked on FPS as well.
