I read that HVS can't find a publisher for this game... This saddens me because from what I've seen, this looks like a good game (The Wii version, anyway). But I have no clue as to whether or not the game is finished. I liked both Conduit games despite their flaws, and I'm not sure if the sales of the second game may doom this game's chances or a third Conduit game, especially the second game's Gainax Ending...

Not really interested in this title. The Conduit was graphically impressive and the multiplayer was okay, but the single-player campaign was bad and The Conduit 2 somehow failed to make it much better. HVS is very good at pushing hardware limitations, but when it comes to game design they're not that great.

If you want an example of a great FPS available for the Wii, try Goldeneye Wii.

[up][up] I thought Sega was the publisher.

I might have picked up this game if it turned out good. However it seems to be in development hell so I've long since stopped caring.

Correct me if I'm wrong but weren't these people also working on a fighting game for the Wii? What ever happened to that?

[up] No. They published the first two Conduit games, but it's never stated that they'll publish this game.

Gladiator A.D. you mean? (Checks Wikipedia) Wow... it came out last year and the reviewers tore it a new one. It most likely bombed, too. I didn't even realize it came out! Not that I cared about it...

Hmmm... I've E-mailed HVS and so far, there's no response...

I'm starting to think there may not be a publisher for this game... sad

Grinder did seem interesting, but HVS seemed to make okay games at best so...*shrugs*
