"Space Marine provides a greater understanding than a strategy game could ever give you of the life of a lone space marine and his partners as they fight enormous hordes of enemies, and is highly enjoyable to boot."

Real bad time to release a game like this...seriously.

Kantor4609d ago

Early september isn't too bad. They could have done worse and released it alongside Call of Duty.

I mean, within weeks of Gears of War 3? aren't they likely to be easily confused by stupid parents?

Kantor4599d ago

I imagine more kids would ask for Gears 3 than Space Marine, so that can only be a good thing for THQ :P

I've always loved the Warhammer 40k universe from reading all the books, I should give this game a try. Enjoyed the RTS's but like the writer says you don't get as much of a feel for the backstory from that type of game.

GroundsKeeperJimbo4609d ago

I just wish the Dawn of War series would have all the 40k armies. Not sure how much of a balancing nightmare that'd be, but the table-top games lay a great foundation to build on.

ATi_Elite4609d ago

exactly what armies are they missing?

Imperial Guard
Space marines
The chaos marines
The Eldar
The Orks
Necron
Tau
Dark Eldar
Sisters of Battle
Tyranids
are in Dawn of War

@ATi_Elite

Sorry for the late reply, but I should have said "playable armies." Or has Dawn of War II feature all of them as playable?

Only ever had the first one and still had a blast with it.

BeardedGamerShow4609d ago

Ugh, I still think it's just an ugly game from an art direction standpoint.

It is a really solid game with engaging melee combat and shooting mechanics. Also the feeling of power is great! Please, sequel this

Steppenwolfmother1371d ago

Why does he keep calling the Orks Ogres?

FreeckyCake1371d ago

I am sure I called them " Orks, Orcs " countless times in the following paragraphs :) .

Yui_Suzumiya1371d ago

I always wanted a sequel to this. Quite a kick ass game.
