    I just played the demo. Amazing game, and very smooth with the amount of enemies on screen at one time. Its not like God of war and its not like gears. Its better then both of them. Feels like a brawler/shooter in one.

    Sentura watch this video. It will give u all the details.

    my god does he get a nerdgasm 2/3rds into the video or what is wrong with him

    i see now what you mean with it being a brawler, but if it's just shooting, then cleaving, repeat, it's probably going the one sided gameplay way. as in, it will just be brawling/shooting.

    Despite the fact that this game will most likely only allow you to shoot (with a bolter, Heavy bolter, plasma gun, plasma cannon, lascannon, sniper bolter, vengeance cannon, bolt pistol) and will only let you cleave (chainsword, power axe, thunderhammer, combat knife) and then you have to repeat it (without a jump pack, with a jump pack, against orks, then chaos cultists, then chaos marines, then chaos demons) along the levels (mostly brown and grey.... and bright blue, orange, green, red, purple, yellow)... I still am looking forward to it, especially if becomes mildly popular and I can finally impress others with the sheer ammount of information I have on the lore of the franchise.

    I'm sorry you cannot be entertained by just that. But its still a cool action game and that's what matters

    i'd still say it's above killzone/halo/resistance/gears. i mean those are cover based only, this at least has the brawling aspect, but i'm just wondering how long itll take before the executions get old.

    its however you want it to be. They give u the tools and its loads of fun. The mission structures change up the pace. From what I have seen there will be a lot of cool stuff.

    Yeah. The 40K fan in me wants so bad for it to be good, but I have to wait for the full game to see if the level design holds the game up from repetition. But I trust my relics (despite this being their first action title).

    Anyway... gonna play Deus Ex now =P

    THQ fucked it up I had to go searching how to get it. They consider the UK not part of the world or something, have to do some fancy bollocks to get it to work. Ugh.

    It was fun to hop around and slash things for the duration of the demo (especially in the jump pack).

    I don't think it can be stretched out to a full game though. But I may be wrong.

    That's like saying; It was fun to run around and shoot things in ever other game, but I don't think it could be stretched out into a full game. For me I couldn't get enough of the gameplay in that demo. However they are going to mix up the gameplay more than you think but I do wish you could play some other characters with different abilities from the universe.

    I'm just suspecting that thing will get repetitive in this particular game. Different games show different levels of promise in their demos/previews and whilst the game seemed fun, I'm just wondering how long it'll last.

    Relic games are made up of a lot of super Warhammer nerds, so if DOW is anything to go by then this should be epic.

    Waiting for the Space Hulk game btw

    Judging from the demo, I somehow doubt this will be the case, unless you're the kind of person who got tired of eviscerating minotaurs and gorgons halfway through God of War.

    I'm a PC gamer so I wouldn't know

    Thing is, I just think the melee combat lacked some finesse, like that found in for example Arkham Asylum. At most times I was just spamming my way through the fights and the game didn't really punish me for it...
