There really must be a design document somewhere at Relic’s Vancouver HQ titled ‘How to make the perfect 40k game for David Hollingworth’. I’d be curious to see it next time I visit, too, but in all honesty, I already feel I know what it would say, an...
Another solid 40k outing from Relic, that will only get better with added co-op...

TOOLS YOU CAN USE advertisementIf you've ever played the Warhammer tabletop game, you're going to be intrigued by this video game version. And even if you haven't, if you enjoy military games with more to do than just kill people, you'll find that Warh...

Champions of CarnageIn part one of the review I focused on the campaign side of the game, this was in part because I love a good story, but also in part because there is plenty to talk about on the multiplayer side as well. This should be good news for...
Gone is the healing mechanic used in the campaign. Stuns occur but on a much reduced time frame which further increased the already fast pace play, and I have yet to see a campaign style execution, though I experienced firsthand plenty of ‘normal’ ones...

When the idea of a space marine is presented, there are many images that might fill our minds. Space marines have been warriors that have manifested in popular movies, literature, tabletop games, graphic novels, and video games. When someone says the...
Overall, things could have been a whole lot better with Space Marine, but that doesnt mean its totally lost or broken. Mostly the letdowns are seen by the fan who knows more than the game allows a player to see, and the rest of the disappointments ar...

Growing up it was almost impossible for me to not hear about Warhammer 40k. Between the novels and more importantly the tabletop games, I’ve always loved the whole idea and scale behind the Warhammer 40k universe. The transition from tabletop to video...

If you are a fan of Warhammer 40k, or of Relic's acclaimed Dawn of War RTS series, you no doubt have been salivating at the prospect of getting up close and personal with a power-hammer and some squishy Orks. Relic has finally brought us a third-person...

Anyone who knows anything about the Warhammer world knows that the Ultramarines are the near immortal destroyers of Chaos. When things get too nasty and platoons are getting wiped out you call in a handful of Space Marines and watch them even the odds...

Videogames owe Games Workshop more than they're ever likely to admit - the archetype of the power-armoured sci-fi man-mountain has at least some of its origins in decades-old tabletop game Warhammer 40,000 (aka 40K). It's taken an awfully long time, b...
Space Marine lays some excellent ground work for a Warhammer 40,000 shooter and offers some of gaming's most spectacular fights. It's too thin on the content to feel like the definitive 40K action game, however...

It's so easy to forget Space Marine's tabletop roots. As an adaptation, this title does an admirable job of bringing the battles of Warhammer 40,000 to life, exciting real-world players and enticing newcomers alike. The brutal encounters may shock thos...

War, death, and demons are just a way of life in the Warhammer 40k universe. It's a crappy place to live, but makes an awesome setting for the third-person action game, Space Marine. Developer Relic Entertainment does the 40k franchise justice, telling...
Space Marine may stumble here and there, but manages to remain entertaining from start to finish. For every moment where a character gets stuck on part of the environment, has an animation that breaks, or just randomly pops into the world, I’m left rem...

I love my thunder hammer. I love the crackle of blue energy dancing across the weight on the end as my Space Marine – Ultramarines Captain Titus – hefts it backwards. I love swinging into the gurning face of an ork. I love chaining together three stan...
Space Marine is just endless war. Thanks to powerful weapons and excellent pacing, that war is pretty damn fun...

THQ has been churning out Warhammer 40K titles at the rate of one per year since 2003. And even though many of these titles were well received by the community, nearly all of them have been relegated to the RTS genre. But with Warhammer 40,000: Space M...
