The Conduit

I'm surprised that no one has made a topic for this yet. Anyways, if anyone has a Wii, and likes/loves shooters, then you should get this game.
The graphics are really amazing, with bump-mapping and all the likes, clever AI that actually, based on HV interviews, will change their current action depending on the player, like when you are falling back they will advance, or if you're blasting their postion like crazy they'll take the closest cover.
The weapons are also cool. You have, of course, your basic human weapons like pistols, assault rifles and shotguns, to Drudge(the name of the aliens, or so you think) weapons that have creative abilities. One called the shrieker fires a explosive round that follows your Wii remotes cursor, to the Hive Cannon that you can switch it's fire mode by twisting your Wii remote.
There's also a third faction called The Trust, a secret government agency that has been safeguarding America for over 200 years, that have their weapons. Some charge up to fire three shots which anchor around objects or other people until they explode, and another fires a beam that heats up the target until it melts.
The story is unique as well. Taking place in Washington D.C., which has been plagued with several events like a bug outbreak, assassinations, and bombings, is now being invaded by the Drudge who just come out of no where. As you go through the game, you'll find out that the invasion is not what it seems, and you soon uncover a large conspiracy.
Of course, there's online multi-player (no split screen since HV says that the Wii can't handle it) that supports up to 12 players! And also supports Wii speak. If anyone has Wii and likes shooters, then you should get this game. One more thing, at the end of the game it highly suggested a sequel.
