Heads up, Wii owners. A new first-person shooter will be heading down Nintendo's alley in a couple of months as High Voltage Software and Sega's The Conduit moves from its vague Summer 2009 release date to a much more precise June 23 launch.

The Conduit takes place in a near future where Washington, D.C. has been overrun by alien invaders (the extraterrestrial kind, not the kind without green cards) thanks to portal-like devices called Conduits. It's up to newly-inducted agent Michael Ford to infiltrate the are and discover the invaders' motivations.
