Sega didnt support it, because Conduit 1 flopped, why would they pour more money into a series that is not getting them any returns?? They wouldnt, I bet that if it wasnt for the contract they wouldnt have even released the damn game. Outsold?? Hell no, Red Steel 2, and NMH 2 were better received than their predecessors and they did worst. |

Conduit 2 and Tournament of Legends performed badly for sales because Sega, for some reason known only to themselves, decided to stealth release them. If Conduit 2 had been given the same sort of advertising budget the first one had then I'm certain it would have outsold it. The second game fixed a lot of problems the first game had and deserved to do better. High Voltage are now working on a U title, it wouldn't surprise me if they canned the Wii SKU and started development on a U SKU instead using the Infernal Engine. |

I dont feel sorry for HVS, they are so-so dev and the made a so-so game. And they had the nerve to hype it up like it was a AAA title or something. If you dont back up your words, you look foolish simple as that. Nothing to do with WIi, GE is doing great |

Jaxx grinder is gone on the wii. I hope that this game gets a christmas deal or something. |

I wholeheartedly salute HVS for attempting to break out of the work-for-hire position with their own IP. It's sad to see a much more enticing and ambitiuos projet like the GRinder get shot down based on Tournament of Legends and Conduit 2 doing so poorly. Hopefully it still exists, but is back on the drawing board to be refitted to the new market and the new demands. |

I strongly suspect the Grinder has been postponed indefinitly. Warner Bros. was supposed to publish it but I guess they backed out since the game hasn't been released and there hasn't been any information on either the wii or HD versions in months. The abysmal sales of Conduit 2 is probably the reason. |
