Has anyone played this game?
I've seen previews for it on TV and a lot of people talking about it but does it live up to the hype?

I'm wondering this too, if anyone has played it, a small review or a post of what your opinion is would be nice.

No. It's worth renting...maybe... the campaign is definitely fun but it is pretty short, beatable in a few hours.
The online play is laggy as hell... HORRIBLE. Lags worse than Madden 08, lol. And trust me, the lag isn't just me... EVERYONE complains about the lag and it really ruins online play.
I have the game and I played for a week or so until the lag was getting to me... and if you remember when I was in the league for Madden 08 I had connection problems... I have a lot of trouble connecting and getting into games.
The wii speak is cool though, being able to talk to people is fun (with friend codes, ugh)
I suppose it's worth a rent if you want to try out the campaign... but I would buy the Metroid games for wii if u wanna play a fun campaign, the campaign in those is much better. If you are worried about online play, wait for CoD Modern Warfare for wii, or get CoD World At War. WaW has less online game modes but the online is smoother (not perfect, however) and much more enjoyable.

I'm sad to hear that! However...I think this game was made by an indy developer instead of a giant one. Online looks so cool but if it's as laggy or worse than Madden '08 then damn...that'd bad. lol

I bought The Conduit a couple of weeks ago on sale at Fry's. I mostly like it, I wish the levels in the single player mode weren't so obvious & you have to go the 1 path.
Online play for me so far has been good but every now and then I run into someone playing via a cheat so they are essentially in god mode. But the few online maps I played were good enough to make it interesting.
Also, I don't have a Wii Speak, I can't justify it. Not enought games use it, maybe if EA starts putting it into Madden & Tiger. Besides, I have a speaker phone near my Wii and I can call anywhere in the US & most of the world via Vonage & Google Voice.

This game looked soo cool! I guess it is just an average shooter game..... Well I mostly buy games because they have online play.... If it's super laggy then it's not worth it to me.........

I have yet to have lag issues when playing it. It was $25 at Fry's Electeonics when I got it, I think its worth that.

I got this game on sale for $30 at Target (Buy 2, Get 1 free with a $10 off coupon). Haven't played it yet. I'm too busy playing CofD Modern Warfare Reflex Edition (which I got in the deal also with Grand Slam Tennis). I'm not sure The Conduit can beat its campaign mode. But I haven't played online yet.

I can't even connect to games online any more, it takes forever! And then, when I do get in, I get disconnected frequently or lag like crazy.
