I like HVS because despite how bad Conduit may have turned out, they really listen to their fans. I've made comments about them being talentless before but I hope they will one day prove me wrong. With any luck they've paid attention to all the negative feedback to make a much better product. Oh, and if they can improve the Quantum3 engine on Wii to run at 60fps, that would be nice too.

60 frames?They need to improve alot of things some new weapons and gadgets for a start,then some dedicated severs and vehicles.
They could've easily fixed the cheating online and the glitch online. All they had to do was patch the game and....Oh wait a minute, I forgot only Nintendo can patch their games and rarely and ban any company from patching their games on the System.... Not that the Wii really supports patching properly anyways.
I just finished story mode on the first one, and i think that a sequel would be cool. The biggest flaw with the first game was its lack of local multiplayer. If they did that then id be happy.
If you're not a fan, then you can either be open-minded that a sequel will be superior (rare), or just carry on disparaging a game whose entire presentation at the moment is comprised of a giant "2" on a poster.
I'm guessing that, with The Grinder moving over to being a top down game, this will basically just be the cast-off FPS ideas for that game bolted on to an improved, and hopefully debugged, engine from the earlier game.
As such, I wouldn't be expecting a masterpiece. However, given that they got most of the technically more challenging parts of the first game right, and largely just stumbled on the more mundane aspects, it could still turn out better than, say, the Call of Duty games for the Wii.

As soon as reflex was out i never really played conduit,but i really hope they put more time and effort this time around.

This. (Although I don't quite agree it was the only flaw.)

I think this is the game Nintendo Power is teasing.
What do you mean..
At the end of the last NP they said they were revealing a Wii game.
that really does make sense. and maybe NP asked go nintendo to remove that interview (which was too late..)

btw, I kept asking HVS to make a sequel, especially after they announced the grinder "bad" news so I'm content.

Most likely, but why does the weird suit of space-armor look like something out of Crysis? Are they using a brand new graphics engine? Questions abound.

the conduit gets hated on because it tries to be one of those bland shooting games, but can't pull it off. the shooters on HD systems may not be very inspired, but they at least seem to function well enough to play if you like that sort of thing; i don't think the conduit wound up good for anything.
high voltage tried so hard to make it look like an HD shooter and still wound up with something that just "looks good for the wii". what's worse is that that fancy engine likely distracted them from focusing on the things that would have actually made the game fun; the environments for example are just terrible. gray hallways and sewer tunnels repeating for hours on end; what was that fancy engine made for? who cares how technically advanced the graphics are when there's nothing there to look at? the last time i tried to play the mission mode i had to quit from boredom, and i mean had to. even the most mundane settings of perfect dark and metroid corruption, it's two biggest inspirations, are miles ahead of what the very best the conduit has to offer.
the online is fun enough to save the game when it works, but it is probably by a good margin the worst online component ever allowed to reach shelves. multiplayer is admittedly fun once you've gotten your controls set up, but not fun enough to sit there for an hour rebooting your wii until you finally (or never) get into a match. if the game had cost about $15 on wiiware i could forgive it, but when you blow $50 on a short retail game that fails to even have one appealing and functioning feature, you've been ripped off.
that's why people knock the game left and right. the controls are the only thing they got right, and those were taken from corruption.
How far did you end up getting? The Trust HQ is very colorful and really shows off the Quantum3 engine's capabilities. I liked the first Conduit a lot and so I really would like a proper sequel to be made.

I hope that any sequel will have a more fully fleshed out single player campaign. I enjoyed the first one, but I felt it could have been more than what it was. I still need to give it another play before I make a decision about whether to keep it in my collection or not.
