And the point to games like this is that you're playing as one of the Heroes. So, sure, you're one of a handful of marines that can slaughter thousands of enemies during a single campaign. It's what makes you special and the game fun.

It's be a pretty boring single-player game if you couldn't manage to kill more then a few orks before dying.

Aww snap.  WH40K in a Battlefield-style game.  If you get such and such kills and survive long enough, when you die they put you in a Dreadnought and you go to battle once more.

Must admit, I saw the advert and thought: Three Marines / different skills / lost in a strange world:

---> Lost vikings?

Are THQ making a space marine puzzle game?

Essentially. The Dynasty-Warriors-minus-the-army footage IS the Space Marines' idea of a puzzle game.

The Warhammer 40k puzzle game is how to conduct exterminatus without leaving anybody alive.

I want to play that game...

Bumping this to spread the good news:

The game is now officially releasing for PC as well. I'd almost written this one off because I didn't have a console and wouldn't be able to enjoy it. Praise the Emperor...and pass the ammo.
