Epic OT for a sure-to-be epic game. No seriously, it's laid out really well and clean and not cluttered and is just easy to read and has no fluff info, only the most important stuff. Nice job with the graphics too. I'm getting the PC version @ Best Buy for those sweet purple skins lol 
A bit off-topic but for someone not too familiar with the universe, how would you guys recommend getting into it? Like the lore and back story. Book/movie recommendation? Thanks

Read Dan Abnett books:
Start with The Founding if you want a lot of war and a look at the military side of the universe. Though you only see Space Marines from a distance (if ever?) in this.
Start with Eisenhorn if you want a story that's more like a detective story that let's you see more of Imperial society as a whole.

Yeah, the demo really sold me on the game. It was barely on my radar until I played and was like "okay, this is how you do third person shooters. None of this pansy-ass cover bullshit"

Any chance of the rumored coop modes include slit screen in the PC version? That would be freakin' awesome.

I got the First Edition pre-ordered, don't know if it's EU exclusive but it's got all the skins except for the Blood Ravens. So pumped for this.

Great OT for what looks to be a great game.
Still not sure if I want to get the Collectors edition or not.

I can't wait for the Eisernhorn vs Ravenor/Bequin trilogy.DUFFMCWALIN said:
Awesome OT derFeef!
Can anyone confirm that they're getting the Chaos skins from the Best Buy PC preorder?
The Best Buy site lists the preorder bonus skins for 360 and PS3 versions, but not PC. Was just wondering if anyone's preordered the PC version and got confirmation that the skins will be included with that too.
Everything points in that direction, but it not showing up on the Best Buy preorder site has me a bit worried...

And if you want to read more about the chapter of this game then read Graham McNeill's Ultramarines stuff: http://www.amazon.com/dp/1844164039/?tag=neogaf0e-20

Leunam said:pffffft, Black Templars. They aren't even a founding chapter.
They're no Ultramarines, that's for sure.
But who are?
I can't imagine they have much tolerance for the "werewolf" and "vampire" chapters however.

Flesh Tearers = Blood Angels = vampires = "part of the problem"
Careful sir.

This game already looked sick, but I had no idea there was multiplayer too. Should be fun for a little while.

This seems like one of those titles where the depth will come from your willingness to challenge yourself and explore the mechanics.Keiician said:
But a lot of people are just going to be in it for the spectacle of it all. It starts off over the top and I hope they can keep raising the bar. This is truly the PC's God of War.

Just read a bit on the Space Marines on there. Sure, there's a ton of info on everything, but you can skim some of the intros and get what you need. Past that, its reading novels and codexes.
