Recently a Nintendo Power review (a real one) said that the game is a 8.0. Most of you have said that because Nintendo Power only reviews Nintendo games that on other review sites and magazines, it will get worse scores. Well F*** that!! Here is what I am saying.
1. Nintendo games can be the same quality as PS3 and 360 games. So you shouldn't judge magazines that play 360 and PS3 games to give this game a lower score.
2. Nintendo Power gives similar scores to other magazines. In fact, Nintendo Power has gave lower scores to AAA games. GT gave Super Mario Galaxy a 9.8. Nintendo Power gave it a 9.5. Who knows?? Maybe it will be the same for The Conduit.
3. 8 is a good score. Most good games like "The Darkness", "Eye of Judgement", "Mirror's Edge", and "Riddick: Dark Athena" are all lower 8s.
4. If you are still skeptical, play the game and do a user review. All of you.
Microsoft announced its financial results for Q3 of fiscal year 2026, including an update on its gaming Xbox business and more.
Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.
To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.
The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.
Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.
15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.
These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
The charity event will be streamed live from Gamescom in August.
Thanks to the slip-up of an artist working on the title, we now have more evidence that a new Injustice game is in the works.
...just don't be so weak-minded that you allow other people to think for you. If it's a ten for you, then it's a ten; and if you are concerned, try before you buy... but do buy if you like it, if you can.
The Conduit to me will be at least a nine... a ten if the story is as smart as I think it will be.
(Written by a guy who loves Lair, and didn't think Too Human was as bad as everyone was saying.)
is the most generic shooter ever. maybe it isnt generec for wii, but it is for the rest of the world.
I won't buy games that average under an 8.
The game makers still worked hard for a graphicly capable shooter on wii. It deserves some play and i'll give it. Expect a review from me at some point here. Well see how my opinion compares to NPs but If it's better then World At War for wii then I will be a very happy. If that multiplaye4r is solid then i got what I payed for. The single player experience is just an extra bit of goodness for enjoyment. Watch.. even with an 8 from NP and averagiong between 9 and 8 from the other publications and reviewers it will still outsell Killzone 2 by 100's of thousands. If not... I'll still be having fun!
Its actually refreshing to have a Nintendo fan on the site. But your point about N Power sometimes giving lower review scores than other publications is kind of a meh point. I can see the scores varying by .5 or so, but this is not going to be a 9/10 game or a 10/10 game. Your overall point is sound though, even if a game is 8/10 that doesn't make it a "flop" or a bad game. I have enjoyed many games that have had lower scores. Hope you like the game.
