  On a visit to GameStop to 'browse' the latest games I noticed one last copy of the Conduit on the shelf... after debating wether to buy it for about an hour I took the 54.99$ plunge, and here are my VERY early impressions.

Graphics: Where to start... best on Wii? No, not even close, sure the effects are pretty, but I own Gamecube games that look better then this, some things like the gun details, character models are fine but the enviroments... where are the details? everything is gray or a shade of orange. But that might fall into art direction.

so grpahics Ill give it 2.5 / 5

 

Gameplay: Go to point A shoot 5-7 enemis go to point B shoot 5-7 enemies, lather rinse repeat.

2 / 5

Controls: Fantastic, almost as good as Metroid Prime 3, and the customisable controls are so detailed that it makes the Conduit play like one of Wii's finest.

4 / 5

Online: Stay tuned

So thats it, so far its pretty underwhelming, sure the controls are great, but the real punch to the gut is thr gameplay is so darn boring. Sure Im not very far into the game, but from what I can tell... (sigh)

 

You reviewed the graphics too early.  It's better later in the game.  Granted, there is little excuse for it not to be consistantly good... but it does deserve at least a 3-4 overall as there are some parts that are 4-5/5.

Gameplay also improves later in the game, but not as much as the graphics.
