  • I love The Conduit, it is a very standard FPS. However their Gladiator A.D. game is must horrible.

  • I hated the Conduit, so flawed and also I hate to use the word clone- but essencially a "Halo" Clone, meaning it takes all the crap Halo "revolutionised" and makes it into a game. I was kind of interested in The Grinder, but I think the Console version is better then the Wii one. Top down shooter like Alien Swarm.
