Has Gamespot become bizzaro world or something? Why are people defending this game? This must be some kind of joke.

Why on earth did Gamespot give this game a 9.5? What's going on? Why did Gamespot do this?

What the heck? Is this some kind of joke? How can anyone take Gamespot reviews seriously after this?

What's next? Does a remake of "Pong" get a score of 10? Gamespot reviews have become pathetic.

The combat in WH40k Space Marine is way more brutal than Gears of War. Check out this video: LINK

What is all this nonsense about "experience with shooters" some of you are talking about? What a completely illogical argument against Relic. Relic's game "The Outfit" was Tactical Shooter! And it was a solid game. Maybe it wasn't the best game ever, but it was still a solid game.

Nevertheless, Relic knows how to make great games, period! Their Homeworld series, WH40k: Dawn of War series, and Company of Heroes series were all awesome!

On the other hand, id Software's games are kind of hit and miss, some are good and some are junk.

Quake III and Quake IV were crap. However, Rage does look quite good. That being said, I think WH40k Space Marine will be better because of the Warhammer universe alone. The Warhammer universe is just awesome and very interesting with a great amount of lore to it. It is extremely unlikely that id Software can think of a better setting than the Warhammer universe. Also, the gameplay for WH40k Space Marine simply looks better than Rage.

I think it will most likely end up like this:

WH40k Space Marine = great graphics, awesome gameplay

Rage = awesome graphics, decent gameplay

I predict a score of 9.0 or higher for WH40k Space Marine.

I predict a score of 8.0 for Rage.

In my opinion, Relic Entertainment is simply a better game developer than id Software.

I think Space Marine will get about 7.0 scores, while Rage 8.5 scores.

Anyone who thinks Space Marines are anything like those cheesy Gears of War characters, needs to read this webpage:LINK

The Gears of War crew are nothing in comparison.
