Space Marine release date?

[Darkseer]

I've been watching the Space Marine trailer again and getting all excited in the hope that you can play it with a mate in the same room like Gears of War.

But, do we have a scheduled release date?

[Bigred]

Nothing official, THQ is being tight lipped. The E3 demo had little to no gameplay, so I'm guessing it will be a while. Probably middle of next year.

[wittdooley]

Not soon enough is my take.

[Big Jim]

I am really looking forward to this one! It looks too cool!

[Blight]

Anyone know what console?

[NecronAbyss]

PS3 and 360

[Inquisitor McSagington]

It's changed a fair bit though hasn't it? Started off as Gears of War lite now tactical RPG style.
Still wouldn't mind a 40k Gears esque game-maybe with Stormtroopers instead of Marines.

[AsgeirArnald]

Gears style would be cool but I'm a big fan of tactical RPGs so I'm quite happy.

[Andrew283]

Try wikipedia for both European and American launch dates. Thats my first stop for finding out things

Yea it has, THQ actually described the initial idea is a whole other project which was canceled and re-proposed as its current build.




I cant wait for it. I hope the characters are fully customizable, including name and chapter.

PS3 and 360

pc as well i think. it does look pretty cool.

For now they don't have any plans for a PC release.

[The Imperator]

I really hope there will be some form of multiplayer

Just so you all know, I believe Half Life II has enough mods to be a space marine, terminator, chaplain, grey knight, grey knight terminator, and others, and you can have the enemies be either orks, tyrnids, or necrons.

Why bother when we just buy the one 40k game we haven't experienced yet?
i can't wait, hopefully it comes out before chrissy

i basically bought a ps3 in anticipation for this game.....and CoD

[Ragan]

Everything I have read, says the release date is TBA that they arnt even done with the build yet.

[Randl]

I will have to wait to see if there is any special PS3 or 360 specific content before I decide which version I want.

It looks like it will be that way, after all Warhammer is 1/3 painting and modeling but we probably won't get the customization options of dawn of war 1.

[WolfAramis]

I'm interested in how this pans out, and agree that it sucks the way the initial concept disappeared...man that had some potential!!! D'no, this is starting to look like every other fight-style game out there...

[BloodDemon]

This game is going to be amazing! They said in an intrview at E3 that the whole squad will be customizable from armour to weapons. Probably skill sets to.

[Selorian]

As someone previoulsy mentioned, I really hope that they have a multiplayer option which extends further than a co-op mode.

[Cyberscape7]

Is the game rated 16 or 18. I want to know so that I could maybe buy it in the shops on my own.

[Akimbo Lizard]

I'm not sure about it being on PS3, I mean if all the people in the PSCommunity are playing in the same game something terrible is bound to happen:D

yeah one huge ginormus game where every one plays on the same map }:)

[Cyberscape7]

I take offence to ps3 abuse. :(
However I DO know what you mean. Online shooters. The LAG.... The LAG...!

[musical-fool]

I came across a date for March 20(!!!) on this site

http://uk.xbox360.ign.com/index/release.html

no idea how viable this is it seems very unlikely to me but thought i might share with all ;)

[AirHorse]

I think the game was originaly slated for a first quarter of 2010 release, but thats clearly not on the cards anymore. As long as they dont rush the game I can wait forever :) I just dont want to see another warhammer online happen, I had such high hopes for that game :(

[Duke]

I also was really disappointed in WAR... I would love to see this game drop in March, but I can wait for an excellent.

Duke

[Melissia]

I actually liked WAR, though I can't honestly say I care about this game. At most I might rent it if it comes out on ps3.

[odinsgrandson]

Hm... that March 20th release date is comming up. Is there any chance of it actually happening?

At any rate, GW videogames have all had tons of hype, and most of them have been fairly lousy. I remember back when Shadow of the Horned Rat was praised up and down in White Dwarf...

[Duke]

You thought Dawn of War I and II were lousy? Interesting, do explain please.

Space Marine officialy comes out on September 6th 2011 for 360,PS3 and PC
