Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine PS3 Game

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine is a third-person action video game developed by Relic Entertainment and published by THQ. It was released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on September 6, 2011 in North America and September 9, 2011 in Europe.

Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine takes place in Games Workshop’s Warhammer 40,000 universe and features the Ultramarines chapter. The title's gameplay focuses on a hybrid shooting and melee combat model.


n Space Marine the player engages enemies through a third-person view with both melee and ranged attacks. The player-character, Titus, is given enhanced regenerative abilities and an Iron Halo, after progress has been made further into the story. When health gets low, performing executions can allow Titus to get a portion of his health back. Titus is accompanied by Sidonus and Leandros for most of the missions, though in some instances missions are performed solo. The game features a fury system that, when filled up, allows the player to either slow time for aiming or perform devastating melee attacks.

The starting weapons include a combat knife and a pistol, though the player can acquire other weapons. The game includes a new weapon not featured in the actual table-top game known as the Vengeance Launcher, which can shoot sticky grenades.

The main antagonists the player must fight are the Orks and the Forces of Chaos. The Orks are an alien race whose sheer numbers and brutish warriors make a devastating opponent. The Forces of Chaos on the other hand are a far more serious threat who can extinguish the life of whole star systems by summoning nearly limitless amounts of horrors that flourish in a parallel universe known as The Warp. Portals conjured by the Traitor Legions - renegade Space Marines - allow the daemons to cross over into real-space.
