We were enthusiastically optimistic about The Conduit, so even though it didn’t shape up the way we wanted it to, I absolutely made sure to make time to visit with our friends at High Voltage Software at this year’s GDC.  This time out, they were showing their fighting game, Tournament of Legends (formerly Gladiator A.D.), and The Grinder, which has been completely re-invented as a Hunter: The Reckoning-style action game versus a first-person shooting gallery.  More to come on that so look for those previews soon, but what caught my eye was that in the demo room there was a poster on the back wall.  And on the poster, in a Conduit-esque font, was a giant 2.  No date, no title, just the 2.

So my first instinct was to ask the designer giving the demo, "is that your subtle way of teasing the next Conduit game?"  To which he laughed and said, "There’s more to come on that!"  I asked to take a picture, but was told politely that I could not.  No one was willing to confirm that this was indeed a tease for The Conduit 2 when asked, but the sly grins said a mouthful.

We’ll be keeping a close eye on this one.  Stay tuned!
