I guess if you're a fan of Gears of War. I wasn't too impressed with the demo, but it's unlocked on my OnLive account now so I'll probably check it out this weekend.

Huge fan of Gears, also a fan of Warhammer 40k... guess both those help.

I'm gonna check it out this weekend. Too many people have been saying that it's surprisingly very good.

Reddit also worships Terraria, which is boring as balls to me, so take that for what you will.

I couldn't figure out Terraria. I mean, I get Minecraft but Terraria was just odd to me?

I played the first hour or so of Space Marine over the weekend. While it's not as bad as I'd've imagined, it's still pretty much gears with a little more focus on melee combat. I'll probably play more of it, but probably not until I've got less stuff to play (which is definitely NOT happening any time soon).

I think that is why I like it. There are times, especially in Hard, where you need to make use of ranged more... but its pretty much a straight up Ork bashing gore fest.

It looks pretty cool and very similar to Gears (which I like). I also painted the Warhammer 40k models way back in the day, though I never actually played the game, so I know a bit about the universe. Might have to give this a shot.
