Katharine of Play:Digital look the Space Marine v. Chaos game, Warhammer 40K: Squad Command for DS. It's not a bad small scale, turn-based rendition of the epic table top strategy game, although the graphics do leave a lot to be desired.
Rating: 3 stars (out of 5)
GameXplain: "This week is huge in terms of game releases. I'm not sure if I can remember the last time so many great titles were released at the same time. Between Dead Island, Disgaea 4, Driver: San Francisco, and Resistance 3, fans of just about every genre were covered. And yet, I can't help but wonder if one other game is getting wrongly overlooked. Warhammer 40000: Space Marine is a hyper violent action shooter that takes place within the tabletop game's universe, something that most gamers just aren't familiar with. And that's a shame because Warhammer 40000 has proved influential to gaming culture over the years."
Great article! I love the Warhammer 40K universe and Dawn of War is a great series.
Terminator Squadron!!
I have both (collectors ed too btw), both are interesting AND fun, I'm new to the warhammer universe and these games caught me by surprise.....great lore and story and the action in these games is non-stop. I highly recommend to anyone into Gears, Unreal, Killzone, Vanquish, etc... a gem that should not be passed up.
Following the successful launch of the PSP Essentials range back in May last year, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) has revealed a number of titles that are set to benefit from an even greater price reduction. Originally launched as a wallet-friendly £9.99 range, a selection of PSP Essentials titles are now available from only £6.99 on PlayStation Network.
For a second I thought it said PSP Price Drop Revealed.
Nonetheless any price drops is a great thing.
Warhammer is a pretty rich, if not over the top universe, that is actually full of extremely interesting lore on par with universes such as those created by Blizzard, however, where Warhammer has a stranglehold on the Tabletop gaming industry, Blizzard knows perfectly well how to make exceptional gaming experiences. And while we all love a great story, sometimes an uneven balance or really not paying any mind to a balance in the first place can see a potentially great game wind up at the bottom of a gaming pile never to be seen or heard from the game - such is the case with Warhammer 40,000: Squad Command.
