Nah, "assimilate or die" is their order of business. I guess it's kind of cool that they give you a choice, but when the other choice is annihilation (or slavery, as is the case with the Vespid), you tend to join their side.
There's no such thing as "good guys," only varying degrees of "less bad."

Eldar are closest, at least they are the only ones not actively seeking to expand,destroy,consume,corrupt everything else. But that is due to them dying as a race more so than them being good.

Hey...let's not get crazy.
I'll order Exterminatus just as quickly as the next Inquisitor.
I can totally be intolerant...I can!

I wouldn't call guys who are willing to let billions of humans die just to save a few hundreds of their own remotely close to "good".

It is weird that there aren't any, but I've played through that demo so many times, and am so hyped. There have been very few times where I've been so convinced a game will be great.

I think S.O.P. these days are embargoes for...everything?
With Gears 3 coming out this month...is it possible that sites/magazines are saving their early review exclusives for that rather than something like Space Marine?
I'm guessing the reviews be generally positive, mostly in the range of 7-8. I can see it getting knocked for "borrowing" from the competition or something like that. Either way it doesn't really matter to me since I've already bought the game. The demo was all the convincing that I needed.

Well, I thought I wouldn't be able to play it at all with my '08 rig (no HD console) but it works like a charm on the highest settings. So PC with 360 controller it is

Nah, no need for an Exterminatus. Just send in the Space Wolves. We'll clean up that Xenos filth in no time flat!

There is only degrees of evil in 40k.
Not everything has to have an absolute "good" side and "bad" side. That's a product of conventional story telling that we're all led to believe that everything has two sides to it.

Holy crap, I have been in the grips of pre-order bonus indecision and have just realized the game releases tomorrow. Probably grabbing the amazon chainsword, since I'll be decorating my multiplayer space marine armor with my college colors anyways.
So pumped for this game. Can't wait to smash chaos marines and have puny imperial guardsmen semi-worshipping me.

It's not only human. Also, the Chaos Gods are inherently evil.

Because Chaos literally eat/feed on the souls of living things.

My copy will arrive a bit later on, having ordered a physical copy on PC from overseas and waiting for the mailman.
All of a sudden also very hyped for the slower-pace of the multiplayer. Like tank warfare or perhaps relegating my need for a new Heavy Gear unnecessary - despite the obvious differences.

keen. And still able to accept Tau as one of the finest additions to the 40K universe. How could you dislike a species with such lovely rifles, let alone a symbiotic concordat with the Kroot!?

I hope the multiplayer will be amazing and have a very long life, but I have my doubts!
Will there be unlockables enough to sustain the game for years and years?

'Chu talkin' 'bout, mang? I think a combat knife in any game is pretty badass. I doubt the footage posted earlier does the knife justice, seeing as the guy playing hardly had a grasp of the 'stun > execute' mechanic. Hopefully there are some truly brutal executions tied to it.

I would call a race that seeks to survive and otherwise avoids conflict to be good in comparison to every other race who actively seeks out to destroy or subjugate everyone else.
