First-person shooters are probably the best genre for allowing the Wii to flex its motion-based gameplay muscles. The Wii’s pointer functionality basically turns every Wiimote into a gun way more sensitive than any light gun you have used before. Recently, we have only been seeing unfortunate uses of the Wii pointer technology in the shooter genre, with Red Steel being one of the only FPS games for the Wii, which itself got a lukewarm reception even though it was a launch title. The Conduit, however, was designed from the ground up for the Wii, and this isn’t some happy-go-lucky monkey-shooting-bananas FPS, this is you facing off against Aliens to decide the fate of humanity. Now that is hardcore.
