I thought that The Conduit was a big letdown, the campaign was O.K., but the Multiplayer seems too much like CODWA to be original.

I don't own it but plan to, it looks good.
What's CODWA, by the way?

And please elaborate and tell us who Patrick Buchanan is.

I liked it. It gave my wii some more playing time, and it is one of the few fps games on the wii, so I thought it wasn't bad.

I think he means Call of Duty: World At War, but he forgot the "W" at the end. I'm not sure though.

I haven't played it, but the reviews have been a bit harsh to it. It's not selling very well where I work, at any rate.

Is it true that the controls were really good as well? I heard they were fully customisable, what every Wii (heck, console) game should have. If that's true, I hope that The Conduit is the start of a new trend. It would greatly improve Wii games.

Personally, I loved the controls.

What could you compare it to, Red Steel?

The controls worked like a charm. Online multiplayer is awesome and will keep you busy for a while. A nice addition to the Wii's lineup

I haven't bought it yet, but according to all my friends who purchased the game, the only good things about The Conduit are its graphics and amazing level of customization in the controls that would shame any FPS. Other than that, though, they found the story to be bland, and were never even able to get into a working Wi-Fi match.

I'm not really interested in it (I can't get online, and I don't find most FPS games appealing anyway), but going by most reviews, I think High Voltage Software did a good job with it. Yes, it's not really innovative, and it would be forgettable and mediocre on any other console, but the fact that it's a fully functional shooter with good graphics on the Wii really shows that the system is capable of loads more than what is currently being put on it. I hope there's more games like this in the future for the Wii, and I really hope HVS's other titles (Gladiator A.D. and The Grinder) also turn out great.

That being said, I am not looking forward to these message boards on the day the Zero Punctuation review of it is posted.

Personally, I'm not looking forward to the internet when Chuck Norris dies of old age.

Don't worry, that's never gonna happen. Chuck Norris roundhouse-kicked the living crap out of old age when he challenged it to a match.

I'm neutral on the subject, but my friend has a few words to say, since a picture is worth a thousand words.

It's a sad day in Nintendo-land when the conduit (i mean really?!) is the most acclaimed fps for their system. Come to think of it its the only acclaimed fps that I've heard of for the Wii.

You've got the upcoming dead space. That will certainly beat the conduit.

I still plan to get it since I've heard enough good things about it to think it's worth my time and money (when i have money)

also the "Pat Buchanan" poll choice is a reference to Florida in the 2000 US Presidential Elections, a moment that by now is probably obscure.
