    If they improve on the first one, the game could turn out to be really great.

    If they could pull this off and get everything done well, it could be great! Looking forward to a good online/offline multiplayer.

    I’d love to see pics/official article… I also really hope that those aren’t the only two weapons they add (assuming that this is true). I really want a sniper (of course, a gun that shoots through walls is pretty badass).

    @ Kirby – Unfortunately, I don’t have the magazine in my hands. The information was sent in by a tipper. But we’ll definitely keep you up-to-date regarding additional details!

    I’ve been trying to find pics/articles on other sites regarding this, I’ll let you know if I find any scans. Just don’t know which issue it is…

  12. By Alex on Mar 29, 2010

    Oh yeah, very good news. I loved the first one.

  13. By jcr on Mar 29, 2010

    1st one was ok, but this time, i know they will get the job done. Looking foward 2 buy this game

  14. By 357 Lobster on Mar 29, 2010

    I’m cautiously optimistic. It could be actually be great. I’m pissed about Grinder and Gladiator though.

  15. By giddi on Mar 29, 2010

    the game will be epic. another great title for wii :) yes!! epic year, or is it 2011 – still good.

  16. By Nero Scarecrow on Mar 29, 2010

    Cool. the first one was very good and all the new features is welcome but all i ask from HVS is to f-ing get rid of the damn hackers on the online! Seriously, whenever i would get in a match every single bastard had automatic rocket launcher and they were flying in the air and all this other shit so come on HVS dont dissapoint

    *checks the date* Oh sweet it’s not April 1st. Good shit.

    The 1st Conduit was a disappointment because the level design was uninspiring. I really hope they’ve learnt from their mistakes and that they market the hell out of this.

    I think I almost had a heart attack. Good. No heart attack, just THE CONDUIT 2!

  20. By A.l on Mar 30, 2010

    Really. Focusing on story? Why couldn’t they have done that the first time around? Is it so hard for game makers to hire a team of writers and deliver something that can match the quality of film and literature?

  21. By Innervate on Mar 30, 2010

    A better question should be: Why are they focusing on the narrative in the first place? My biggest criticism over games today are them trying to imitate film and books, when they should strive to be video games.

  22. By MATT on Mar 30, 2010

    wiispeak is as good as they make it as for online the wii has a robust online feature and monster hunter shows that at all the events not 1 hicup on lag,connection,ect plus its 1 of the biggest online modes u will ever see in a video game coming straight from capcom and the conduit 1 was a very impressive game but the art/graphics took at hit because of budget ect now they fund there own games it should be something quite special because that game engine looks like it could do 100 times more with the right budget/art direction it could be the next halo

  23. By The_Noah on Mar 30, 2010

    It’s gonna be awesome! More news is to come next week, and some exclusives will be down at The Conduit Portal. Go HVS this is gonna be an awesome game!!! #1 on my list!

    they should add the ability to aim down the sights like in call of duty and in a bunch of other fps’ this time around. Its makes it alot more satisfying for shooting

    “Conduit 2 is an enormous sequel. Not only does it greatly improve and expand on the original, the online and co-op play modes aim to raise the bar for Wii war games,” said Sean Ratcliffe, Vice President of Marketing, SEGA of America. I believe him…do you? Anticipating to its release this fall. :)
