Single Player Campaign

What most Wii First-Person-Shooters lack is a Hardcore and interesting Single Player Campaign. Not one First-Person-Shooter for the Wii so far has impressed me with their single player. However, The Conduit is coming fairly soon.

Even though I have yet to play this game like video game developers and analysts have had the chance to do, I can already tell from reading multiple reviews and seeing many video previews that this is going to be non-stop action packed.

The first thing I noticed which will interest me is a Drudge object found by Mr. Ford (The main character) called the All Seeing Eye (ASE). The All Seeing Eye in this game is used to de-code Drudge language written around various places to help you beast through Campaign and help the world come to safety. It is also used for different puzzles which are placed around the game. This will definately keep me into the game. It's not just shooting objectives, it's also solving puzzles, as well as finding your best way to defeat the Drudge and the conduits (portals) which exist around the maps.

The second thing I noticed was the intelligent AI. I noticed that while attacking them, they respond intelligently by taking cover behind objects and choosing the best times to pop out and attack you. This is very different from past FPS' on the Wii where the enemies just stand still in the middle of the area firing three-burst-shots. This will keep the game challenging.

Also from what I have heard (credit DarkShadowRage), Headshots as well as kills for each weapon will be tallied and recorded throughout single player. It is also rumored that these single player stats will be used to unlock certain bonuses in online gameplay. Stay tuned to this post to see if this is ever confirmed.

Overall, The Conduit Single player has recieved many awards for the Wii because of it's XBOX 360-type graphics, and many other aspects. What is keeping me interested the most though is the setting of the game - Washington D.C. It will be very hardcore and exciting playing in a real-life setting.
