SPACE HULK

The Languish response seems underwhelming.

I loved the earlier PC attempts at Space Hulk. This one looks neat but is unlikely to run on my computer.

The Languish response seems underwhelming.

I want to see how much they fuck up the WH40K lore.  Space Hulks hold a particularly special meaning in the world of the Space Marine, and I don't want them to trivialize its importance.
Reading the interview, it sounds like they're on the right track.

I own the latest board version. I also played the 90s PC version.

The 90's game was fun. It had one of the best arguments against customised squads ever.

Space Hulk Ascension is out and looks like what I had hoped the original release to be.

Set in the isolated corridors and tomb-like chambers of ancient vessels lost in the graveyard of space, players lead a small force of fearless Space Marine Terminators in a ferocious fight for survival against hordes of predatory, alien Genestealers.

The standalone sequel to Space Hulk brings an all new and improved single-player experience for the turn-based strategy game.

New Ultramarines Chapter
An all new Space Marine chapter, including a Terminator armed with Cyclone missile launcher.

Terminator Progression and Customisation
Earn XP during missions and level up attributes and skills, and give your Terminators a personal touch by customising their names, weapon loadout and appearance.

Campaigns and Missions
100+ missions spread out over 3 complete campaigns, and all new flash missions. These are opportunistic mini-missions encountered as you explore the deep unknowns of the Space Hulk that can yield a tactical advantage or be a deadly trap.

Exploration and Discovery
Terminators reveal the layout of the Space Hulk as they venture deep into the darkness.

Additional Weapons, Tactical Options and Game Rules
Game mechanics have been reworked to make Space Hulk Ascension a true video game experience. Combi-weapons (Combi-Melta, Combi-Plasma and a Combi-Flamer) have been added to the game as well different firing modes like aimed shots and alternate flamer patterns.

Genestealer Variations
Genestealers with Fleshhook, Feeder Tendril and Acid Maw biomorphs have been added to the game, each with their own special game mechanics. You can also encounter biomorphs with scythes that have multiple attacks or carapace for increased armor.

And it's only 27.99! Oh, and I get a 25% discount.

Well, fuck you, I will pick it up when it's down 75% minimum, to recoup some of the entertainment value vs. investment that I was originally expecting.
