Conduit 2 will launch in February, but you can get yourself all geared up in advance with this new trailer showing off some of the new weapons and arenas available in the upcoming sequel.
Conduit 2 looks like maintaining the prequel's reputation for outstanding graphics: if it can improve on some of the things The Conduit got wrong this could be a strong contender for the Wii FPS crown.
Sega claims it's "Bigger, Bolder, Better" – judge for yourself with this trailer.

If skyward sword comes out early next year, but after this, I'll pretty much have a solid year's worth of gaming, with 3DS also getting a chunk of my time.
So what 2011 games are there?
This, Mario Sports Mix, Kirby's Epic Yarn(EU here), Skyward Sword and hopefully some localisations? Could be better but I need to save money for the 3DS anyway!
Very nice! Im sold
Frankly, graphics are looking like they take a big hit on splitscreen
/
Gameplay looks just as slick as the original, which is great, but I personally found the graphics in this trailer.... inconsistent. The jungle and leviathan levels look fantastic, but the other ones look a little bland and lack-luster. Well, theres still alot of time between now and February, so I'm sure theres lots of polishing. Keep up the the great work HVS!!!
@NintendoCoDGamer: That happens for all splitscreen games though because they have to divide resolution, fill rate between the separate little screens.
ATi hoolywood is not the best graphics card in the buissnes thats for shure..
@Oregano
While it's true that all split-screen games do that, I've never really seen one get that jaggy...
I mean, hopefully that's just because they're not done with the game yet - and hopefully it's not just them not knowing how to handle split-screen well.
Let's just hope for the best and wait for better vids in 2011.
So... the big question is, Conduit 2 or Goldeneye?
Mildly hyped after watching that, nice.
I can has Halo 3 controls plz?
@NintendoCoDGamer You can customize controls. One of the things the series is known for
@timp29 That'll depend on how much nostalgia you have built up for it. Though Goldeneye so far has the different (awesome) game modifiers but I haven't heard anything about Conduit 2 having anything like that yet.
Looks fantastic. I can´t wait. I just want to play with my friends on splitscreen, like old times!!!
Art makes a game look great, even if the tech behind it is average.. Just look at Metroid Prime 3, no bump mapping or reflective, refractive or transparent water.. No matter how many tricks High voltage has, their artists are not very good
Generic shooter is generic. I only just watched the trailer, and I already have the killer urge to go back to my Xbox and play Halo 2.
Don't care...GOLDENEYE and 3DS and 15 other games...Don't need this.
Oh man, SO MANY FREAKIN GAMES.
Oh well, 3DS will suck my wallet dry, so I might get this after the price goes down.
they are trying to create to much hype over something that will be nowhere this good.
Some of those texture graphics look worse than the first one....
I believe it will be awesome!!
i gotta get the first one to understand the second, both look really awesome
@15 Generic shooters only use stupid, unintuitive dual-analog controls. The amazing, super-customizable Wii controls are what give both Conduit games their hooks and keep them from being generic.
Don't judge the various mechanics just from the first game. We've yet to see much of actual gameplay and/or online footage of Conduit 2, and they've made a point of trying to address the problems with the first game.
If Conduit 2 manages to pretty much match the Halo series except for the graphical and sound quality (and certain online capabilities) that the Wii isn't capable of, and of course greatly surpassing its controls, is that bad? With the Wii's controls, what's wrong with otherwise being generic of something as great as the Halo series?
HYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYPE
IT'LL BE AWESOME AND YOU KNOW IT
The first Conduit was cool, solid, and a little generic; the sequel looks cooler and not generic. I can't wait. Definite fun.
@JimLad Cool glitch.
@Doubters Please review the game AFTER it has come out (not talking to those of you who are judging the trailer).
I don't care if this is slightly generic as long as it's fun, but I am hoping it won't be too similar to XBOX shooters.
All over this, bring it.
Wow this looks much much better then the first. The environments all look different and the graphics look good too. I like how you can play with friends on this one but i wonder how it would work using wii remotes. If they fix the online im defentally going to buy this as soon as it comes out.
ololol For some reason the Drudge seem to look like Sangheili.
cookies for telling me what Sangheilis are
Just to clarify, I know what they are.
the conduit looked crazy like this but i was greatly disappointed in the graphics and controls! no way in hell im spending my money on this game
Honestly, I think it's hard for a FPS not to be "generic". In a FPS, there are always average weapons (shotgun, machine gun, sniper, pistol, rocket launcher, etc) , and it's almost always either based on a war, or themed after a futuristic battle between humans and aliens. How is a FPS supposed to stand out? By being polished?
The only first person shooter I have loved in the last 10 years is return to castle wolfenstein. I'm old school
well, timp29, im a goldeneye fan myself, but i am also exited for conduit 2.
eh looks good but ill get goldeneye instead. next year is gonna suck my wallet dry. thank god i have a job now! (im only 16 so its not like im older and need it to support a family or something)
