Do I even need to say which game made number one?

The 2009 San Diego Comic Con will soon be underway and Microsoft is set to announce a brand new title that is a “project from a renowned, top tier franchise.” Killer Instinct? Perfect Dark? Another Banjo-Kazooie or Conker, perhaps? It’s certainly plausible that it could be either of those, but after a disappointing showing of nothing Rare related at E3 last month–PD XBLA excluded–there is no reason to get your hopes up. Hopefully we’ll have something to report shortly.

Just wanted to stop in ‘n let all forum goers (all 2 of you), the bots, and passerbys know that the forums will be going offline temporarily, while I change it up a bit. I’ll let you all know once it’s back up again and hopefully this time it’ll get really active.

ETA: TBD

Portion of a Gamepro review of The Conduit…

“Let’s get the inevitable comparisons to Goldeneye out of the way right now: The Conduit is the closest you will get to recapturing the magic of Goldeneye on a Nintendo console. The single-player campaign is definitely reminiscent of Rare’s classic. I consider the similarity to Goldeneye as both a positive and a negative. Sure, it’s great to finally have a shooter that spiritually follows in the footsteps of a great game you played in the past, but damn, the N64 was two generations ago — what does it say about the Wii that The Conduit doesn’t blow Goldeneye’s graphics out of the water the way Halo 3 outshines the original Halo or Killzone 2 completely destroys the original Killzone?”
