If that latest trailer airs on TV, with some splices of people playing the game (i.e. the Red Steel marketing campaign that pushed it into the million-seller mark), the Conduit will do really well at retail.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
Trailer was very well done, especially if it's used on television.

If SEGA wants to give this game a good advertising push, they can just spread that trailer around. Good stuff.

Nice trailer. My only complaint would be is that it gives you too many dates to establish a timeline. And I would omit the September 11th reference. Very nice though.

I'm sure they spent a pretty penny on that trailer. Hopefully it runs on television.

Just thought I'd pop in and give my two cents...
Has anybody bothered to take a look at High Voltage Software's previous releases? These guys are not capable of making a AAA game. In fact, when The Conduit was first announced, I almost wet myself in excitement... but then I saw who was developing it.

i'm pretty sure we had this discussion, like 10 times, when we first saw the game. we've already come to a general consensus that HVS's previous releases do not necessarily paint the quality of this particular product, as they have had naught but licensed properties before the Conduit reared its then ugly head. since then, the game has evolved nicely with much critical acclaim. now would you kindly stop inciting riot? like this thread needs another flamewar...The Mageling said:

Sorry, I didn't know it had already been discussed. I normally don't browse video game message boards.
To clarify, I'm not trying to incite a riot, I'm just saying some tempered enthusiasm may be in order. It seems like they're doing everything right so far, but there's no way to know for sure until we have our hands on the finished product.
I'd love to be proven wrong. I thoroughly enjoyed MP3, and I really want another solid FPS experience on the Wii. Guess we'll see.

Trailer=Awesome. The masses are sure to be interested or at least curious to find out more about this game. if it's coming out in June, I say start promotion middle of May. Get that name out there so people can be familiar with it and have it on their radar. Use that trailer as gateway.
well, adult swim is what i generally watch, but yeah, to run this during certain prime time sports slots and action show slots (Heroes, Lost, 24), as well as during teenaged boy targeted shows would bring in the main audience for this type of game.RyuKanSan said:

That was actually just a poorly written sentence, after being revised when I realized I shouldn't say TOO much about what I know. What I meant was "From what I've seen given their past..."

People have noted that the game seems like a generic shooter, but there's just something about it that just makes it look like boatloads of fun.
It's probably the controls. From what I've seen and heard, the game just looks and sounds fun to control in comparison to typical FPS. I really want to see how awesomely fluid it is with my own hands, especially since High Voltage is really pushing things on the customization end.
As a guy who does enjoy a good match of Halo 3, I can honestly say that The Conduit's multiplayer looks more fun.

Not only that, but they're both talented and willing to listen to feedback and suggestions.markatisu said:

Thrust of Remote is a good mechanic for Melee. It should mess up your aiming when you attack with your gun.

:lol Strafing and shooting at the same time seems to be too much for the average console gamer. The players are so bad you can't see if the maps provide for some tactical play.DeaconKnowledge said:
It seems that everyone spawns with their favourite weapon, so no way to shut a map down - boring. Hopefully more powerful weapons like the rocket launcher are restricted to pick-ups.
Good thing, kill cam is stupid.
