The Conduit controls work very well but between it and Metroid Prime or even Ghostbusters for that matter I didn't find it to be all that much better to be deemed revolutionary.
As for the game itself. It's a first person shooter. The graphics reminded me a little bit of Halo. You move forward kill everything in sight and keep moving forward. While the controls do work well and in some ways I can see them replacing keyboard mouse (but I said the same about Metroid Prime, which is a vastly better game overall). The game itself doesn't really bring anything new to the table.
I should say I'm not a huge FPS fan to start out with so for me to stay entertained in an FPS, it's got to be something special. In the Conduit I didn't find anything specail. Good controlls, good graphics but just run-of-the-mill everything else. If you really love FPS games then it could be worth while for you, otherwise rent it.
One nice thing is that the Multi-Player works pretty well. It's very easy to jump into a random person match, set parameters etc.... If you want to do only friends. Well it's the same freind code crap you have to do with other Wii games. I played a few 9 player games and didn't find the lag to be noticable and the maps were well sized for the action.
