Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine - Anniversary Edition

"BROTHERS! There is no time for hesitation!" The Emperor protects... and this game proves why the original Space Marine is still worthy of His blessing. Sure, it shows its age in a few places, but watching Captain Titus solve every problem with a chainsword and a bolter is a timeless experience. No unnecessary complications, no endless crafting menus—just glorious service to the Imperium and enough Orks to make the Codex Astartes proud. The combat is brutal, satisfying, and somehow still makes charging headfirst into impossible odds feel like the correct tactical decision. (It probably isn't, but that's what faith in the Emperor is for.) The Anniversary Edition is a fantastic way to revisit this classic before jumping into Space Marine 2. If you've never played it before, consider this your official summons to the Ultramarines. The Emperor approves. The Orks definitely do not. 9/10.

This game was my entry point into the Warhammer 40K universe, and overall, I can say I’m pretty happy with that. The game definitely shows its age in some places, but it is still very playable and fun today. The combat is solid, the story was interesting enough, and the enemy variety is actually pretty good. That said, near the end, the game starts throwing the strongest and most annoying enemies at you a bit too often, which got tiring after a while. It didn’t ruin the game, but it did make some sections feel more exhausting than exciting. The jetpack parts, though, were incredibly fun and easily one of the highlights. The boss fights were probably the weakest part for me. The bosses themselves are not really hard, and most of the difficulty comes from the game dumping a million minions into the arena. The final boss especially was pretty bad. QTE bosses are definitely something I’m glad we mostly left in the past. Some parts also felt a little too dependent on just sending more and more enemies at you. For such a linear, action-heavy game, I would have liked a few more creative action sequences outside of regular combat. Still, even with those issues, I had a good time with it. It’s not amazing, but it was a fun and satisfying introduction to the universe. 7/10 - A good game.

Muy buen juego infravalorado con una buena dificultad

I'm a huge (new) fan of 40k and I really enjoyed Space Marine. Total power fantasy of playing an Ultramarine and killing innumerable number of orks and beasties! Very linear and straightforward, but its a fun ride from start to finish (with a couple of rather big difficulty spike throughout)! Highly recommend!

UFF que juego muy entretenido, !! valio cada maldito centavo !!

Pinshi juego Vergas, puro imperio y no M4madas

the emperor protects

Если хотите пройти эту часть перед второй - не надо. Игра не гримдарковая, кривая, я бы даже сказал неинтересная. Озвучка плохого качества, локации пустые, бои недрайвовые (особенно на высокой сложности), импакт у болтеров минимальный, при этом игра ближний бой вообще никак не поощряет. В общем, 6 часов тупой боли ради возможности пройти сюжет самостоятельно за 300 рублей. Даже для 2010 года игра 6/10.

GREAT

Still works great running on Windows 11, Ryzen 7 5800X3D, RTX 3090, 64GB of DDR4 3200 CL 16. You'll need to either use MSCONFIG to change the number of CPU Cores available to 8 total or, a far better option is to download and install the Windows ADK Compatibility Administrator. Only tick the first box of the installer, untick the rest. Once installed, open the 32-bit version of the Compatibility Administrator, then click on the "new database" under the Custom Databse tab and click menu for "Database > Create New > Application Fix". Next, you need to select the game application file either through "Browse" or by typing the full address in. For most people, that will be this: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Warhammer 40,000 Space Marine\SpaceMarine.exe" Click next, click next to skip Compatibility Mode stuff, and on the Compatibility Fixes menu scroll down to the "P" section. If you are running a Ryzen CPU, you need to tick "ProcessorCountLie". For an Intel CPU with Efficiency Cores, you need to tick "ProcessorCountLieForHybridCPU". With the correct one selected, click "Parameters" and put "8" in the command line, and click "Okay". You can go ahead and click "Test Run" to make sure it works and change to the other option if you got it wrong, then click "Next", and click "Finish. Now, click "Save" and Name the database, then save it to disk somewhere you'll find it.
