- Mr. Ford/Prometheus relationship compared to Michael Knight and KITT from Knight Rider - Ford’s voice acting isn’t great - Ford’s delivery makes one-liners feel extra cheesy - Solid gameplay - There are some great moments, such as the ending - Reviewer would have liked the set pieces to be as thrilling as the ones in recent Wii first-person shooters - [...]

We don’t have all the details, but here is some more information for the 7.

What is the Conduit 2? A sequel to 2009's Conduit, this first-person shooter is aiming to deliver on areas where the original fell short, namely the level design, art style and story. High Voltage Software seems to be paying attention to the criticism leveled at The Conduit, and intends to make Con...

Where do you think Conduit 2 will take you? Wherever the bad guys are, we're sure -- but those alien creeps aren't located in one convenient place. They're scattered all across the globe, in places like China, the Bermuda Triangle, the Siberian tundra and the rainforests of the Amazon.

Fans of the first game might recognize these first couple of weapons. First up is the TPC Launcher, a dangerous Trust weapon. In The Conduit its only function was to fire off energy grenades. It was a pretty powerful weapon and a fun gun to use online. For Conduit 2 we amped it up a [...]

Sure, sure, the Conduit 2 trailer does a great job of showing off the different modes included in the title's 8-person multiplayer -- but we're more intrigued by how every player is named after a US president. We just can't wait to trade shots with "Mr.Roosevelt" and "Mr.Polk."

#bossbattles I wasn't sure I heard David Pellas correctly. We were standing in a noisy room. He was playing a video game called The Conduit 2 that he helped make. He was fulfilling my request by showing me what he considered to be one of the most impressive things in the game. More »

Sequels aren't always guaranteed to be better than their predecessors, but they'll always be bigger. David Pellas, designer director of High Voltage's Conduit 2, broke down many of the new features included in the Wii-exclusive shooter. Some of the additions rectify surprising omissions from the first game: the ability to sprint, alternate fire for weapons, and a proper sniper rifle. Embarassingly, the first game missed any female NPC skins for multiplayer -- an issue that has been rectified in Conduit 2.

Some of the added features are far more significant: the addition of split-screen multiplayer (with a brand new Horde-inspired co-op mode!), for example. The experience is fleshed out with an in-game store system that allows you to purchase new weapons and don new perks with a persistent character across both single and multiplayer. Finally, the campaign adds a feature most FPS games are missing today: boss battles.

Does all this newness amount to a better game? That's up to debate, of course. But no one can argue that Conduit 2 -- when broken down into numbers -- is a far more significant game than its predecessor.
