Right on the front of the box is a quote from IGN claiming that this is "the best shooting game on the Wii" so I had no choice but to buy it and give it a go! Two and a half hours later and I was still playing it so I guess they could be right!
I've played games such as Call of Duty on the Wii (I still own one of them) but to be honest, for me their too realistic as the wars they are set in are still in 'recent' history so I find them a little bit disrespectful/distasteful and that puts me off playing them.
The Conduit reminds of the good old days before such COD type games existed and you have missions to go on that involve blowing the brains out of aliens and such like as you progress through the many different levels - a 'Doom Style' game (as I call them) and it's absolutely fantastic! The graphics and gameplay are brilliant and there's plenty of different weapons to get to grips with, but be careful if you have an itch as when I scratched my head with my hand that had the nun-chuck in a inadvertently threw a grenade and blew myself up!
Wii Mans Game Rating
Fun Factor: 8/10 – First person shoot 'em ups don't come much finer than this!
Playability: 9/10 – Wii Controller & Nun-chuck required - don't scratch you head else you might throw a grenade though...
Gameplay: 8/10 – The first time I put in the disk I spent hours playing this game so it must be good!
Graphics: 6/10 – The graphics are just as good as any other Wii game out there with nothing outstanding to give it a higher rating
Sound/Music: 8/10 – Atmospheric sound(s) in this game increase the overall gaming experience and help make this game fantastic!
All-in-all a great game, but there's still something missing that I cant quite put my finger on as yet that would make this game so much better.
Overall 39/50
