Looks awesome. I continue to be impressed by 40k video games.

**Necros**

do they have a web page with info so I don't have to watch a movie at work?

Not really much besides the video and some screenshots so far. I'm sure their plan is to release this a bit before Space Marine... gotta get that hype train rollin!

**BrookM**

Quick cash in or a fun game to play? Hmmm.

**The Decapitator**

Sweeeeeeeeeet!!!

**htj**

Is it just on the Kersbla? Or is it likely to be on Steam as well? (Hope hope)

**Swordwind**

Now that is awesome.

Wish the xenos were something other then Orks though. Killing Tau would be very nice.

It didn't list PC on the screen at the end of the video, so no PC release at launch at least it appears, bleh.

Aw. All I have is a PC. :(
*twiddles thumbs for Space Marine*

**daedalus-templarius**

I imagine it will just be for XBLA and PSN, although I wouldn't be surprised if they did something for PC eventually.

**BrookM**

So far it's only for XBLA and PSN according to official announcements.

**Necros**

Hopefully PSN will be back to normal by then... last I checked a few nights ago the PSN store was still dead.

**sarpedons-right-hand**

Looks awesome! Anyone know if its coming to PS3? Or did I miss that?

Righteous! Love me any and all arcade run-n-guns, the fact that it involves space marians is just the dab of icing on the top

If GW doesn't change their policies anytime in the distant future, the 40k IP will live on in Black Library and video games. Both mediums represent the IP far far better than the tabletop game ever will.

**Kingsley**

Looks like great old-school arcadey fun.

**Kirasu**

Looks cool.. have to wait for review tho

**htj**

Ah, might pick it up for my PS3 then.

**DrownedRat117**

Why would I want the power sword? I can have a THUNDA HAMMA!

**NoBaconz4You**

Any form of release date mentioned yet?

Summer is all they have said.

Cool! I hope that sword promo is just cosmetic though.

I don't.

There's no power sword in game, which irks me, simply a chainsword and 2h power axe/thunder hammer. I wants a sword/pistol, dangnabbit!

It likely is "Perform X achievement and Y is unlocked in Space Marine". Not a bad way to do it, similar to how a lot of Steam games now have achievements in indie games that unlock hats for TF2.

There's also a power sword (blinged out in gold IIRC) that is a preorder bonus in case you missed that announcement last week. I wholeheartedly support tie ins with other games (I wish xbox games had more unlocks in new sequels for having previous games in the title completed but that is rarely the case) but I'm not a fan of ones that give you a multiplayer benefit.

It's a chainsword that's gold, not a power sword.

Amazon's preorder bonus.

**Samus_aran115**

Holy crap! freaking awesome! It's gauntlet with 40k mixed in

**Alpharius**

Power Axes rule!

Hadn't heard of this until now, so thank you for sharing!

Same here! This will definitely be getting a purchase, from me, whenever it comes out.
