Dispite saying i wouldn't pick it up i did yesterday while doing the food shopping at Tesco got it for £20 thanks to some vouchers i had.

Anyway so far it's ace absolutely loving it and Dead Island hasn't had a look in since i got it.

Had a quick go on MP last night and i can see me playing that for a while at least.

Multiplayer could do with a few new maps and new gameplay modes, only having domination and deathmatch types of gameplay gets old fast. I have dragged my character up to level 18 this evening ... it is fun, usually, but the lack of variation makes it repetitive.

Single player is great fun thus far, top class voice acting.

yea im up to about lvl 19, the "auto on voice" thing is fucking annoying. SM, Dead Island, etc, it seems to be the norm now :\

they are patching it "soon" but still :(

also, Devastator/Havoc all the way :D

Just finished the game.

Bah, the ending is 4 waves (3 of which are pretty damn hard) followed by a QTE boss!

Still not on Steam. I chuckled :D

There's still an ad for it but the link it takes you to is dead. I wonder if behind the scenes Steam are pissed they didn't get the pre-order in the UK and are being churlish about it.

download:
Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine - Buy and download on GamersGate

otherwise get a box

the CD keys should work on steam as its the "DRM" for it ;)

i have a CE box and it installs steam so its a safe bet :p

as for the ending, er what were u expecting ?

your a space marine captain, ok, but hes a terminator chaos lord, thats an entirely different level of face stomping

QTEs are just such a cheap and irritating way of doing anything in a game and to have them for the last boss when they've never occurred in the game before is doubly so

Couldn't they have just had it as a tough fight? Perhaps multiple phases or something, ANYTHING other than "press x to not die"

Fun game otherwise, can't wait for the Coop

I wouldn't have minded it so much of QTE was really used anywhere else in the game! Well, apart from the health regen mechanic.
