Space Marine unleashes gorgeous violence
Just played the demo of the new PS3 game, Space Marine. Sweet.
I remember seeing my cousin’s painted miniatures years ago and falling in love with the Warhammer 40K universe. I could almost hear the gunfire as legions of Space Marines, Orcs, Eldars and more clashed in mortal combat across table tops. I always wished there were a movie or something to do this awesome, violent universe justice. There was a PC game called Space Hulk that was a lot of fun, but hard to beat or play very long because it was so frustrating. Still, it gave a window to this universe that was very rare.
This recent demo showcased the best Warhammer has to offer, and that’s chaotic violence. A big box board game that came out recently, Horus Heresy, also gave a chance to get into that universe.
Remember, somewhere a table is empty.
