Space Marine Will Launch With "Elite Pass" System

TSA Writes:

THQ Community Manager, “Sledgehammer” has recently confirmed that Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine will require an “Elite Pass” to access the game’s full multiplayer experience. Each PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 copy of the grim sci-fi shooter will have a unique single-use code printed on the back the instruction manual; those who buy Space Marine pre-owned without the pass will have to purchase it via PSN and XBL at the hefty sum of $10.

Wow that sucks for u thq, you just lost a sale, i always buy 1 new version for me a couple used ones for my poor friends. I'll pay $60 not $180. And i aint playing alone

Chocoboh4652d ago

We can all thank EA for this one.

GhettoBlasStarr4652d ago

I think this will hurt the game sales in the long run. DLC, DRM, Online Passes are killing the gaming industry.

Maybe not killing the industry, but killing my interest in it.

Gaming was always a business... but these days it feels like the hunt for profit has marginalized everything else.

Samus is on the list. Personally I'd swap the Space Marines with either Grey Fox from MGS or the COG armor from Gears of War.

NecrumOddBoy374d ago

You’re right. Hiding at the bottom so I missed it

REDGUM374d ago

There's no Dead Space listed in here, WTF!

Sciurus_vulgaris374d ago (Edited 374d ago )

I’d take the Space Marine power armour off the list due to it not originating in a video game.

Actually great list TBH I agree with all 10

I hope one day we get some remakes for the following

The saboteur(with a proper remake and quality of life features this game could be great)
Scarface world is yours
Binary domain ( such a great game with great story)
GUN(this needs a remake)
Space marine 40k(such fun time)

Would also like to suggest adding the mercenary series even the 2nd game which is disliked by many is a fun time

I recently finished Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine and found it to be very enjoyable.

The game respected the lore and the gameplay was quite decent.

The color palette was a bit underwhelming (backdrops and setting) and recycled but I think that it deserved better.

Here's hoping for an amazing sequel
