I've put a lot of hours into Warhammer 40k/Chaos Rising on PC so I'm pretty excited to finally play one on the 360 that has a different feel/play style. I heard this one will have coop as well as multiplayer too so I'm down for it

In the early 90's, I painted miniatures for a gaming shop in Bellevue WA. I never really played the game, but I loved to watch the game itself being played out on a table-top. From what I have seen in the past, WH40K is more of a RTS game, which I really don't care for. Bummer, really. I thought it would have been better suited if it was an RPG.

I collected a few of the mini's and painted them, though I only played the game itself a couple times with friends.
Anyway, I am very excited for this game. I have wanted an action-based, "next gen" 40k game for a long time. I played Dawn of War like a maniac, and Warhammer does work very wel as an RTS, but the Space Marines themselves should also be really good in an action game.
I just wish it was a better chapter than the boyscout Ultrasmurfs. Like Black Templar or Flesh Tearers, or maybe even let you choose a chapter.

I just scooped Dawn of War 2 for PC at Best Buy for $12. The Chaos Rising disc is another $20, so I'll just watch for it t hit the clearance shelf like this one did.

No dawn of war 2 is only worth 1K with chaos rising it's 2K just for clearification.

When I saw this thread I had to look to see if it was posted by sithlord and I was right
On topic, haven't played much Dawn of War. I'll probably ended up at least playing a bit of this one.

Half.com has Chaos Rising for under $10.00. Shipping will probably take it to $15.00.
