Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine Embraces Yet Another New Genre

In the wise words of Four Leaf Tayback from Tropic Thunder, “You must put those boys in the s**t.”  Well ladies and gentlemen, that’s the idea behind THQ and Relic Entertainment’s Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine. 
No longer will you be able to play the role of armchair general from
your comfortable view atop the battlefield, nor will you be able to hide
behind the barrel of a gun.  Instead, in this expansion into yet
another new genre for the “Warhammer 40K” franchise, you will take on
the role of Captain Titus, a Space Marine of the Ultramarines chapter. 

T.E.C. 3001 Review

When attempting to visualize Phoenix Game Studio’s T.E.C. 3001, think Sonic the Hedgehog meets The Terminator. That was my first impression of the game upon starting, and it stayed with me for the entire time.

Why this mash-up, you ask? For starters, the android that you control, called a T.E.C. (Tesla Energy Collector), looks eerily similar to the T-800s from the Terminator series. From the metallic sliver finish of the android to its human form, comparisons to the T-800 can be easily made.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution – Review (Xbox)

My Adam Jensen is cooler than your Adam Jensen.  My Adam is silent, fast and invisible.  He can run past you without you knowing he was there at all.  If he feels like killing you, his pistol is so silent that you’ll never hear it even as your friends start dropping all around you.  If you’re wearing a lot of armor, that’s not a problem for his revolver.  It isn’t silenced, but it’ll be the last thing you ever hear.

Mass Effect 3 Heats Up (Cosmetically), Ends Shepard’s Story

The votes have been cast, and the winner is…the redhead!  The Mass Effect community
selected the new female Commander Shepard pictured below in a contest
to choose the look of their new playable heroine (you can thank concept
artist Patryk Olejniczak for the fiery vixen).  Unfortunately for her,
her only entry in the franchise’s trilogy will be her last, as BioWare
has recently confirmed that the upcoming Mass Effect 3 will “complete” Commander Shepard’s story.

At an event hosted by
343 Industries, developer Turn 10 announced that the Warthog from Halo 4 will be featured in Forza Motorsport 4. Before anyone starts

confirmed that the Warthog will not be drivable. Instead, it will be available

Autovista mode, which lets players admire their vehicles using the Kinect for a
virtual walk-around.
