Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine
Release Date: 5 September 2011

Strengths:
-Good story and atmosphere like all Warhammer 40k games
-Shoot! Shoot! Shoot!.....Reload! Shoot! Shoot! Shoot!...... (lots and lots of shooting!)
-Intense action, violence and gore. Massive hordes of Enemy to kill or be killed!
-Great voice acting and story driven gameplay
-Good Multiplayer Mode with reasonably good customization and level system

Limitations:
-Doesn't have other DoW heroes and factions- only Space Marines, Orks and Chaos. Only 1 hero.
-Limited players online for the multiplayer

Conclusion:
Space Marine is a third person shooter version of the popular Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War Series Games which already made a name for themselves with great realistic graphics and pioneering gameplay that set a new benchmark in the RTS gaming world. But unlike other titles in the series which are RTS games this version lets you play as a 'Space Marine' Commander and experience the on-ground and upclose epic battles with the enemy faction i.e. the Orks and Chaos while preserving the tense atmosphere and story of the DoW games. The best thing about this game is the intense fights against the hordes of Orks with a great roster of firearms, melee weapons and special abilities experienced combined with excellent sound and graphics that makes it stand out from any other similar game. Gameplay is story driven with great voice acting which is what I like about Warhammer games. The only limitation of the game is that there is only one single campaign and one hero and only two enemy factions. It's like going through a movie but is better than that because you actually get to fight and perform as the story unfolds. Every single battle is intense and brutal with blood, explosions and bullets flying almost everywhere. Multiplayer is awesome and you can choose from a number of characters and your character's level and abilities increase after every battle! If you like action and shooting then this game is a definite buy. If you like story driven gameplay then this game is for you. You will not regret it.


Gameplay: 10/10
Replayability: 8/10
Story: 8/10
Sound: 8/10
Level Design: 8/10

Overall rating is 8.4/10
