I had to play through most of this game twice since I accidentally deleted my save file when trying to load it. I feel like that's more times than most people in the world have played this game.

Aiming is a bit sensitive, level design is repetitive, and the story is very weak. I especially didn't like the parts of levels that made you scrape your face against walls until you found the hidden scan points to unlock doors, some being arenas with respawning enemies that keep nipping at you.

I did like the secret rooms you could find by solving circle puzzles that gave you OP guns, but most of them had such low ammo that I'd end up holding onto them and ending up only having 1 weapon to use. I also liked the alien guns a lot more than the human guns.

To be fair to The Conduit though, I didn't hate playing the game, but I definitely wasn't really paying attention to it while I played it. I'm glad to have it in my Wii library, but 1 and 7/9ths of a playthrough is enough for me for a while.
