Abstract: THQ has been churning out Warhammer 40K titles at the rate of one per year since 2003. And even though many of these titles were well received by the community, nearly all of them have been relegated to the RTS genre. But with Warhammer 40,000: Space M...

Abstract: Take two staple ingredients of fantasy and science fiction, namely orks and space respectively, mix in a ten foot super soldier named Titus and some bone-crushing, brutally satisfying combat with both melee weapons and guns, and you have Warhammer 40 0...
