Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine

I am giddy with anticipation. Absolutely giddy I tell you.

I am a longtime Warhammer 40k fanboi. This is nirvana for me. Relic is doing such wonderful things with the 40k license. Remember, there's also a MMO that has been in the works for almost 2 years as well.

Here is an alpha build that was leaked on youtube last year. At the time, Relic denied that the video was thiers. They have since admitted it was, but stressed in was merely a pre-alpha/proof of concept build. Keeping that in mind, check out some of the ideas they showed off.

Rumors are flying already. I read a review where the guy claimed to have seen a Carnifex in the background of one of the gameplay montages he saw. The same guy says there was a titan in a shot too. I read how some thought there may be 4 player campaign co-op. I can't wait until E3 where hopefully lots of clarification and new information will be released.

I'm probably just reading this wrong, but you're not talking about Warhammer Online are you? You know that's out, right?

Get that shit out of here!

The MMO I am referring to is completely different, from developer to setting.

Okay, good, I just wanted to make sure. I'm unaware of the other one.

2.5 years after it was first announced, and that is all we have to go on. A single picture of concept art (which was only recently posted!). Rumor is, we're going to get lots of info at E3 this year, but I heard the same rumors the last 2 years and haven't seen shit!

Another good rumor I heard, that I would like to believe, is that the reason they are being so hush hush about the whole project is because it's so fucking awesome and they didn't want anyone stealing their ideas. I also remember an interview where someone stated that it was kind of pointless to release anything against WoW at the time and they were waiting for a down swing in it's popularity before they were really going to push this MMO.
