Unlike prior games, here the player will only have control of the leader of a squadron of Space Marines, an elite group of human troops. Using unprecedented graphics with regard to the quality of realism and expressiveness, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine places the player in an environment in which humans are fighting for survival against the orc and chaos warrior forces.īecome a real member of the Space Marines. From what we've seen, there's reason to be excited - but only time will tell what the full game's like.Over the years, there have been many games based on the Warhammer universe created by Games Workshop, both for Warhammer Fantasy as well as for Warhammer 40,000, with even a few games dedicated to the less known “specialist games” like Blood Bowl, and now THQ has decided to launch a game that combines role-playing with third person action games in Space Marine. If you're interested in what you've heard, there's a demo out now on the Xbox 360 and PS3, so you can try it our for yourself. Trying to liven things up a bit, the mode, called Exterminatus, will randomly ask you to complete certain objectives - such as killing 10 Orks in ten seconds - and any experience gained will carry over into competitive multiplayer, too. Rather than letting us play through the game in split-screen with a friend, the co-op mode is instead online only, and seems to be Warhammer's version of Gears of War's 'Horde Morde', where you face off against waves of increasingly tough enemies. In an effort to placate the rabid fans, Relic, the game's developers, have announced that they'll be releasing a co-op mode as a free download over Xbox Live, the Playstation Network, and the PC - although it's not quite what we hoped for. One of the biggest features people were concerned about, though, was notable by its absence from Space Marine - a co-op mode.

Also, have better shoulder pads than Hilary Devey.
