The demo of Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine has been released on Xbox Live today and should arrive for all PS3 and PC gamers shortly. Until you can play it yourself, we have decided to show several videos taken from the two available levels. Let's start with the first part of the Inquisitor level.
Update 3: PC video added.

Thank god they didnt use cover system like other games.
You want to heal? go in like a warrior and kill enemies brutally to gain health!
It encourages you to move constantly, great design choice Relic!
Day 1!!!
PS. I hope Relic decides to make another similair game but this time in a fantasy setting considering they clearly know how to make brutal combat.
Thanks for those vids man.
It's good game but the camera is problematic and ruins half of the fun for me.
I will buy the game at some point, but after Gears3 and the other bigger games.
Although it was a short demo it was a joy to play, definitely getting the full game!
Shooting is damn meaty man, i would say its like Gears.
A regular handgun and a assault rifle pretty much make their heads explode, thats weak to you?

I agree, the camera sometimes gets aweird during finishing moves, but its not a gamebreaker or as bad as say, Ninja Gaiden lol

Fantastic stuff! Imagine using Conan music or something similair during melee with the hordes of orcs, manly! lol
FOR THE EMPEROR!

The music is alright, I personally use custom music, so I use trailer music with epic orchestrals and choir, need to have that epic battle feel lol

You should just try playing the very old WH40k Dawn of War and Winter Assault expansions to get a taste of RTS take, or rather the very brutal take it can be.
But yeah, that is what I mean, Warhammer 40K is fantasy sci fi, but I want the ones that is purely fantasy with no sci fi involved.
And if Relic can make such a setting with the Space Marine melee action, I would be very happy.
And IMO, the most badass "space marines" I seen lol
