I've read through some game magazines and heard people syaing stuff about 40k and Dawn of War being rip offs of starcraft with characters and race.

So I'm wondering if people have heard of these stories also.

Please don't try and inform me on that 40K has been around longer then starcraft.

I know full well thats the case and glad of it.

This topic has been talked to death already.

really I never saw it do you possibly have a link?

Not just on Dakka. Idiotic gamers bring it up all the time, especially Blizzard fanboys.

I think its pretty clear here, that 40k ripped off starcraft.



(sarcasm intended)

I suspect Starship Troopers inspired the whole lot as well!
