The Relic(and its mirror) weapons were preorder bonuses.

They have no impact upon gameplay outside of looking different.

This may be wrong, but after looking over some sources before I bought the game, I believe everything can be obtained in the game except for the power sword. Maybe reaching lvl 41? Not sure.

A nasally British voice sounds way tougher than a nasally American voice though.

My favorite weapon has to be the either the plasma pistol/TH
or the bolter with both perks, feels damn good practically sniping people with my starting weapon

I'm liking the game heaps. You'd think killing waves of enemies over and over would get repetitive but it really doesn't and the weapons are all useful, so you can always mix and match whenever you want and still be successful.

Also it does get difficult towards the middle, the Renegade Guardsman have such a huge volume of fire, I found myself ignoring the CSM half the time and focusing on taking them out, because the volume of fire was insane, it was worse than the Orks with Rokkit launchers easily.

The multiplayer lags for me alot and the mic issue is not helping , but underneath that I can see a really fun time, although I doubt it will live long, most multiplayer modes for shooters dont last long these days. It would have to take real dedication from Relic to keep it alive and I dont think THQ will want to let them try.

No, it just looks like it. For instance, it looks like you get the space wolves preorder armor, but you dont, its only colored that way. The real space wolves pre order armor has special armor plates, fur pelts, etc.

Melta, Heavy Bolter, Thunder Hammer.

Liked the storyboard game, not enjoying the online version. Can't deal with CC and gamers perspective. You go piling in and then find it hard to find the bugger to hit um. Would prefer my view to be first person, but I suppose you then wouldn't get to see you nice shiney customer set up. Game is going to be traded in to offset my purchase of GoW 3.
