WARHAMMER 40,000: SPACE MARINE

This month’s theme, apparently, is ‘games that could be ’90s thrashcould only be more metal if it swapped out the Ultramarines – the Adeptus Astartes equivalent of stonewashed jeans – for the Dark Angels, a chapter that’s so metal it’s screamwanking to Obituary in a coffin. But really: who cares? This is still a game where you control a seven-foot, xenophobic anvil voiced by Mark Strong, as you stamp, cut, smash, crush, and chainsword your way through legions of expendable orks. It’s also something of an anomaly, because it’s a 40K game that’s actually good.
