All seeing eyes for all, well kinda!

All seeing eyes for all, well kinda!

Impress all your friends with The Conduit branded portable speakers

As if to make up for the two week slip with the European release date for The Conduit our pals at SEGA have teamed up with popular UK based etailor Play.com to offer FREE Portable Speakers to those who preorder the game.

It may not have escaped your notice that the speakers fold into a handy ball which looks much like the All Seeing Eye! Be the envy of all your friends as you listen to your iPod with these bad boys.

We’re not sure if any other European retailers will be offering this to those who preorder yet, if you spot anything but sure to let us know in the comments section below.

The Conduit comes out finally on the 10th July in Europe.

It appears to be exclusive to play.com (at least according to them). I don't see the need to cancel my GAME pre-order for those -- they aren't battery-operated and from past experience passive loudspeakers really really suck.

And you get a new skin for multiplayer and the ASE.
Not seen anything like that on the continent but I have my pre-order booked at play.com already.

These have been part of the pre-order deal for aaaages now, way before the delay.

@Wiiloveit - Really? They weren't early in May. You should have let us know :-p

@itsmoirob: That other stuff is part of the Spec. Ed; the only thing unique to play.com are the speakers.

@Dazza: Well, they've certainly been doing it a while now, because I pre-ordered mine with the speakers a few weeks ago now :)

Added: GoNintendo reported on them a while back, and I even remember seeing their article and thinking that I'd already seen the offer before.

I'm still waiting for the damn speakers I pre-ordered, and that game that comes free with 'em.

@Wiiloveit damn you beat me to it! Yeah this offers been up for at least a month now!

Ah well, we got there eventually with the news! Blame @SEGA for waiting until today to Twitter about it! :-p

@Dazza: Hey hey hey hey hey: don't try to pin the blame on somebody else. You posted it, so you need to take responsibility for this one :)

@Wiiloveit - You're right, I have to hold my hands up to this oversight. I've brought shame on Nintendo Life! hehe

And all I got was a lousy e-comic.

@Sean_Aaron Ah, I did not realise that. Just had another look and seen it comes with a bit more. I thought the unlockable stuff was a pre-order thing not a special edition thing. My bad.

15. Sean Aaron United Kingdom 30 Jun 2009, 17:08 BST

It's just some codes. I think some spoiler-prone kid has posted them in a thread in our own forums -- the shame of it!

I do like the slipcover and the artbook/guide though.

Very nice pre-order. Me wants...but me likely never gets.

This game is a joke, I would only recommend renting it (if at all). I am still hopeful that Red Steel 2 will be a good shooter for the Wii.

Is corbie or any of nintendo life's american connections going to have a conduit review out soon?

Mickeymac

19. Mickeymac United States 30 Jun 2009, 21:44 BST

Damn, why didn't they have this bonus when it was coming out in NA?:( All we got was a lousy cover.:P

PHANTOM93

20. PHANTOM93 United States 30 Jun 2009, 21:48 BST

Wow, that's a nice preorder bonus.

@NintendoLife staff: Are you guys going to review the game once it's out in Europe, or have you just been busy?

21. KrazyKain Malta 30 Jun 2009, 23:50 BST

well I already pre-orderd from GAME, i'd have loved those speakers even if only because they are shaped like an ASE

22. Tony United States 01 Jul 2009, 02:35 BST

I have to try this game! I think I will rent first. But it looks awesome

Cool, now I know what to get AlexSays for his birthday!;)

It is getting mixed reviews saying the Al was terrible and it's too bland of a shooter just shooting in corridor after corridor i'll still get it but my Quantum of Solace is the best game

Pablo17

25. Pablo17 United States 01 Jul 2009, 16:21 BST

This is a good game, just not as good as I had hoped. There are a lot of online issues right now.

@ MickEiA
quake was shooting in corridors after corridors and it was awesome! I can deal with it.... I guess the multiplayer is where the fun is at.

Mickeymac

27. Mickeymac United States 02 Jul 2009, 05:19 BST

I love shooting in corridors, so no problem here. And terrible AI just means an easier run-through for me, so again, no problem. I think I'll actually like this one.
