A brilliantly brutal game that can satisfy anybody with the need to kill something!

A short and sweet review here. Having played alot of dawn of war 1 and 2 I naturally wanted to step into the boots of a space marine and this game gives you that chance.

You definantly feel like you are one of the emperor's elite space marines in this game combating dangerous enemies who will do what it takes to kill you, since is proved alot since they do not fight fair by attacking in mobs during the campaign but its all part of the fun.

Your weapon arsenal is as brutal as the franchise itself with weapons ranging from chainsaw swords to melta cannons that vaporize ANYTHING that gets close. The visuals are very impressive aswell with alot of detail in the game, just a shame that there is alot of brown and grey to look at aswell.

The campaign itself is very good but it lacks ambition the developer truly played it safe with this one which is all fine since it gives out a decent story with alot of violent gameplay for you to make use of most of the time.

And finally the multiplayer launching with only two modes capture the points and team deathmatch the game feels a little rushed on this part especially with only 5 maps to play on at launch, maybe DLC will cure this. But do not let that discourage you, the maps are decently sized and varied although the colors are not.

The level of customisation in the multiplayer rivals that of saints row you can makes any marine you wish ranging from a legionaire of chaos to a pink marine proving his comfort with his sexuality as he does battle.

In conclusion a very good title for when you just want to kill things fun multiplayer a decent story and lovely visuals when they aren't grey or brown. 8/10, I took two away for a lack of risk taken by the developers.
