Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine is a game, unfortunately

AWESOMEoutof10 writer Fraser Brown finally gets round to playing Warhammer 40K: Space Marine. It makes him see red, not just because of all the blood.

wow what a weird article. Theres so many other games that might fit his descriptions and even then this is excessive. Space Marine is a great game thats good old fun it reminded me of how I loved last gens simplicity. It seems hes trying to quit smoking which might be a reason for this which is stupid and unprofessional. In the end never mind this rant or "fit" if I may because Space marine is a great game...

In this day and age of imitation cover shooters, Space Marine eschews all of that in favor of faithfulness to the canon as players are encouraged to wade into the enemy shooting and hewing down a horde. Dawn of War players readily see an iconic creation brought to life with remarkable voice work by the actor Mark Strong.

I have to agree. This poor writing attempt could have used a few dozen nicotine patches.

Unfortunately you are correct about one thing, this rant can be applied to a worryingly large number of inexplicably popular horribly dull games.

mafiahajeri4364d ago

I agree but Space marine isnt one of those games by a longshot. Also its not that popular if anything I would call it a hidden gem or sleeper hit much like Transformers war for cybertron but each to his own I guess.

Loved this game, I have no idea what he' talking about.

bumnut4364d ago

Me too, sure its not the greatest game ever made but it didn't claim to be.

It is good old school fun imo, and the high level of violence also helps :)

I thought it had a Darksiders feel to it but a shooter.. Decent game. I'd say 7/10.

Space marine was a little brown and the mutiplayer sufferred a fair amount of lag... but my god was it fun. I picked it up new for a tenner and played the crap out of it. With a bit of polish it could be an excellent game.

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine came out more than a decade ago – a retrospective

Bits & Pieces asks: Releasing in 2011, there's a sequel on the horizon for Warhammer 40,0000: Space Marine. Relic’s third person hacker-shooter is older than the average Twitch chatter – how does it hold up?

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.

NecrumOddBoy400d ago

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

REDGUM400d ago

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

Sciurus_vulgaris400d ago (Edited 400d 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
