I will most likely jump into MP first and switch to SP if/when I get bored.

The question isn't why do I kill. The question is, why I don't kill everybody.

I don't like the second sentence (what. just what.) but I concur.

Call my friends. If they're at work or in class, the campaign. Otherwise, MP it is!

Start with MP, then finish the SP in, ideally, one sitting.

Sounds insane, I know, but I find I enjoy the game the most that way.

I can't wait for multiplayer, but wading countless Orks in the campaign is going to be sooooo awesome

In every game I've ever played, Singleplayer first to get the controls down, maybe Coop campaign if whatever game I'm playing supports it, but no Multiplayer until Singleplayer is complete.

Probably Multiplayer just because i want to be one of the first to 41(within a month i hope) along with every single achievment by the end of the year. The single campaign looks amazing and the demo left me with a serious amount of questions.

Yes. It's available for pre-loading (on Steam) now if you want to get a head start.

Or for purchase if your name is BrookM.

I am making a beeline for the "make your own marine" option. Then single player.

I like to imagine the Emperor kills so many Orks that he ends up half buried beneath a pile of corpses, with only his head sticking out. A lone grot stumbles across him, and starts choking him.

Then Horus comes across the lone grot, somehow managing to kill the Emperor, and punts it into space.

EDIT: Nevermind

RE: TOPIC

I usually play singleplayer first using it as a sort of tutorial and warmup, then I play multiplayer... probably the only game I haven't done that on so far is Black Ops.... but then again... its Black Ops.
