It is short! It took me 5 hours and 17 minutes to complete. While I consider myself an above average gamer, I'm sure hardcore gamers can do it faster on their first try. Once I beat the game, I unlocked the "unlimited ammo" and "one shot kill" cheats. So I decided to play another campaign and it took under 3 hours to complete. It's like playing Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition with the Chicago Typewriter - it's just way too easy. Everything, I mean everything, dies in one shot. Even the huge gigantic alien bosses that used to take 6-7 radiation grenades.
With that said though, this is still a fun game, and it does have some pretty tough moments. I think there are plenty of different weapons to try and use, including some that allow you to snipe from far away. There is no roaming the environment so you are pretty much stuck on your path to complete the next objective. I did find some of the data disks and hidden messages within the missions, but I don't really think it's worth trying to spend the time to find them all only to unlock the "firey death" cheat. Which basically means when you kill and enemy, they burn to the ground. Big deal?
Overall, I would recommend this game if you are into first or third person shooters. It would be a great game to get while waiting for that next big game to come out and kill some time. It's pretty cheap, short, and it is fun. Actually, it might be better to rent this game instead of buying it as I have put about 8-9 hours into it and beat it twice already! And I don't think I'm going to play it again.
This game reminds me of 007 Quantum Of Solace as it's cheap, fun, short, and easy with some tough moments and not much replay to it. I would still recommend this game for Wii owners since there aren't many great games for this system. Enjoy!!
Of course, there has not been much in the first-person shooter fare and then The Conduit came out. What an awesome game! All of the Wii remote buttons and Nunchuck buttons are utilized to make you jump, run, strafe, change weapons, activate the All-Seeing Eye (a very cool feature that other reviewers cover here), chuck grenades, change grenade types, activate weapon scopes, etc.
My only gripe about The Conduit was that it was SHORT. But being that the game's duration is by far my only complaint, it's minor to say the least. The multi-player aspect (up to 12 online) coupled with the ability to use Wii Speak (communicate with your teammates without a headset) if phenomenal and makes up for the short campaign.
Some have complained that there isn't much to the story (and not original at that - alien invasion?), but I didn't feel that it detracted from the experience all that much. It drops you right into the middle of the action and it never lets up one bit. It has the qualities for a first-person shooter with the quick hard-hitting action that you might see in a light-gun arcade game. It's an awesome blend with a music track that will keep you tense. Some of the story elements were pretty cool especially with aliens using Conduits to bridge their world to ours through walls, etc. And the hatchery concept was cool as well - you need to destroy them or aliens will keep coming through indefinitely.
While another cool aspect of the game centers around humans being subjected to mind-control, it somewhat falls flat because there aren't any other humans around who are not under control. Wouldn't it really have ratcheted up the tension to have humans in a room and you're not sure who's ok and who's under mind control until they pull a gun on you? Unfortunately, you're safe to assume that EVERYONE is a bad guy...so the paranoia route is sadly unexploited.
Despite the shortcomings in story and concept, the action is great and the Wii graphics are well-utilized and it doesn't look like a half-baked job. Also, the degree of control customization is almost to the PC degree in terms of adjusting how fast you want your character to move at full bore, changing button commands, etc. FANTASTIC!
Buy The Conduit and you will NOT be disappointed. Buy this and send the message to 3rd party software developers...WE...WANT...MORE!!!!
