Purenintendo Review: The Conduit

By  •  Wii

Better late then never for a review right? Kevin and I decided to combine our powers and each to part of the review. Kevin covered the single player and the intro to the review and I covered the online part. I have to say Kevin’s is really good…mine…well sounds like a drunken sailor wrote it.

In April of 2008, The Conduit was announced to the world. As a first person shooter for the Wii, many believed it to be a godsend for hardcore gamers. High Voltage Software, the developer of the game promised unparallel graphics as well as creating a top-notch experience that was truly lacking from the majority of most Wii games. Since then High Voltage has done their best to showcase what can be done on the Wii. Now that the game is out, did The Conduit hold up to the standards HVS promised or does this overhyped game crumble upon gamers’ expectations?

The Conduit- Single Player Campaign

The Conduit begins in what appears to be the aftermath of a subway explosion. Michael Ford, a secret service agent, regains consciousness; he then quickly discovers he must fight his way past waves of aliens, known as “The Drudge,” in order to survive. As he navigates through the subway system, he encounters a giant conduit (alien teleportation devices). As Mr. Ford enters the conduit the story flashes to five days in the past.
