warhammer 40k shooter in the works
After playing a few hours with Gears of War II, the whole underlying engine and graphical work ROARS for Warhammer 40K – you could mix a pretty-well designed shooter/action with tactical and RPG elements, even some MMO elements via Live. You could do solo runs (or AI-based supporters, hirelings, whatever) when you feel like doing some smaller jobs for the Emperor and team up with friends and do a huge sweep on an Orc camp. Takes a lot of effort, takes a lot of time and it could be wonderful. Space Marine is just a forerunner of that and a techdemo – and if you’re a Warhammer 40K devout fan and you’re about modeling this world as real as it gets – it’s going to be appalling for you, unreal, as marines aren’t exactly awe-inspiring, bullets are not threats to avoid and the skies are not filled with the spawns of Chaos. Still, makes you hope. (And I’m so waiting for the 40K MMO.)

i’m left far behind with games’ news… but this 40k shit is promising!
btw, i head a quick run with wh40k: squad command on nds. and it was quite a teaser! runs on psp, too.

i’m not spending money on a new gaming platform any time soon, so let them just port it to the iphone, not and not and definitely not buying nds!
d4m: I can lend one. ;]
your choice, but it’s a fuckin’ drug.
(and again, thanks to houruck for the tutorials! 
)
oizys: since when have you been roughing out with nds?
i’ve had one for like 3 years in the deep of the closet. i dug it up a few months ago, to check on it, and it rocks. the point is to find the appropriate apps and games. there are the dumb adaptation ones (like nfs series), which try to be the same as the pc version with stupid sega-like graphics. these suck. and there are the other ones developed specifically for nds, which try to do the best possible with the given platform. these are the real rockers. like wh40k squad command, mystery case files, or lego batman (for real!:).
haven’t tried any lego games, man. same with the 360.. you really need to decide on what to have and if you’re a little over the NFS/NHL/NBA game tsunami, then it’s pretty much obvious what you gonna have. Still, NDS and not PSP? I thought you were the PSP kind of person
by default i’m a no-consol person (except for ps2 with tekken 3), but the nds came for free. that’s the secret.
so that i have it, i like it. but to be honest, i wouldn’t have bought one for money.
