I've been having problems posting reviews here lately. At first, it would allow me to do it like normal. Then if I wanted to edit it and change something, like a spelling error. It would tell me to "please select a score" when I already had one set. I could usually get around this by resetting it, but after posting a review it doesn't seem to work so I have to take the entire thing down after copy and pasting it, then resubmit it with the desired changes made.

Now however it doesn't seem to allow me to post anything at all. First it'll say "please set a score" or "please select a difficulty" even if I already had all that stuff included. But if I somehow claw and bite past all that, it just brings me to a broken URL, where it claims that i tried to search for something completely different, and no results are found.

It has to be some kind of bug. Is there any way to fix this?

It's a pretty difficult decision here. But I'm going to have to go with Conduit 2. Because I stuck by Conduit 1 which still seemed to be fun despite all of its flaws, like voting weapon sets and levels where people seemed to pick Streets and Explosives over and over again, very long time to connect to Nintendo WFC, monotonous levels and boring campaign. But Conduit 2 is rumored to be working through all these problems, supporting motion plus and even local multiplayer support. Also the graphic engine will be tweaked so there will be better textures given to the game. And plus the control scheme will probably be better than the other two alternatives, because all the way from the first one, Conduit was built from the ground up for the Wii and that really shows on how you control the game. The pointer was robust and moving was easy, I also liked how you thwark the nun-chuck to throw a grenade because it actually feels like what I would assume a grenade would. If they have really made all the improvements that they say that have, and keep the advantages that made the Conduit so strong in the first place, then I'm sure Conduit 2 will be great. I know that this will be without a doubt an improvement over the original, like as well as local multiplayer I'm excited about the level design getting more attention, still there are other questions that remain unanswered. For example, can you take more than one person online as in Mario Kart Wii? Will there be downloadable content? Since the first Conduit only had like 7 levels, it would be possible for Conduit 2 to include every single one of them if they really pushed out on downloadable content. Also, they stated the weapon set voting system has been done away with. So how will weapons be governed? Do you have to pick them up across the level, or can you choose your own weapon set? And will the level and game mode still be done at a voting basis? Also I hope they get rid of that weird glitch that happens sometimes when you get in a match, where you see nothing but black and you have to restart your console, and PLEASE make finding a match on WFC quicker than the first one was. But I am confident that Conduit 2 will be better than the first, and I am ready to purchase it above all others when it comes out.

But Call of Duty Black Ops comes in a very close second. Connecting to a match through WFC is done within seconds, and maybe because Call of Duty's obvious popularity there are always more people to fight around with, something that felt pretty lacking in the Conduit. I've thoroughly enjoyed Modern Warfare Reflex, and I am very pleased that we have Treayarch who makes Call of Duty games because the rude freaks at Infinity Ward are too good to. It is really worth noting that the developers have said they will do all that they can to make this version as close as the other platforms as they can. I'd be fine if all the content and game modes were kept in, save the graphics because everyone knows the Wii wasn't intended for great graphics anyway, and people who play for the most part won't mind. Though I feel Conduit 2 will probably strike me closer than this one, I feel the need to pick this up some time after it because though I enjoy Modern Warfare reflex, Call of Duty does get old after a while and I haven't played my copy of Conduit 1 since I bought it, and this will be a great oppurtunity to scratch that nostlagic itch and play Conduit 2 and for the first time against someone else in my room. But I am still excited about purchasing Black Ops because like Conduit 2 it shows a lot of promise and I have already enjoyed an alternate game for Call of Duty therefore there is no question that I will pick this one up.

As for Golden Eye 007 I am in the dark. The only Golden Eye game I have seen was Rogue Agent on the Gamecube, which looks very "meh". Also like some of you I think it could be a cash in, especially the James Bond theme seems really obscure for a first person shooter, and the only reason I could have hope for Golden Eye 007 is because it's the first Golden Eye on the Wii and its also an exclusive. But I am more excited about Black Ops and especially Conduit 2 so Golden Eye 007 is in last place.
