Name a Space Marine Game.

[sketch_zeppelin]

Ok i'm curios just how unimagintive game designers are, so i want you to name a game that stars or is largely about space marines. Lets see just how long this list gets.

 

[kingcom]

Warhammer 40K

 

[GiantSpiderGoat]

Halo

 

[LANCE420]

doom awesome! they were one of the first too

 

[Nouw]

Space Marines are Marines (ground and water) that can survive in Space. Can Spartans do that? Also, Warhammer 40K isn't a game.

Anyway, Warhammer 40,000 Space Marine.

 

[The Thief]

System Shock 2.

This is kind of a low content thread. You might want to add something to discuss.

 

[Tony2077]

space marines are and will always be a warhammer 40k group

so in that case dawn of war series

 

[Zacharine]

Let's see...
wh40k Chaos Gate
wh40k Dawn of War-series
wh40k Space Marine
Halo-series
Marathon-series
System Shock(s)
really, the list just goes on and on.

I'm pretty sure I've seen Master Chief in space a few times. However, most WH 40k marines don't have a helmet so I dunno how that vacuum is going to work out for them

I'm not sure on that one, but they should be able to. After all, they are Super Humans so I think I should ask an uber-geek

System Shock 2.

Heck I just started some!

 

[Kapol]

Mass Effect series maybe?

 

[Withall]

I'd like to add the progenitor marine to this list. The doom Marine. The Granddad of 'em all.

 

[Good morning blues]

Even though they are technically not in outer space, I think we can all agree that the cast of Gears of War counts.

So you have...

From what little information I've gleaned from WH40K, all realism has been taken out behind the space-shed and disintegrated, so I'm sure the total lack of oxygen, deadly radiation, and blood boiling vacuum of outer-space can be shrugged off effortlessly.

I also would have to respectfully disagree with your definition. I consider any game where you are some kind of soldier in a science fiction setting outside of earth to be a space marine game.

Also, I'll add StarCraft to the list.

 

[Snor]

warhammer 40k for tha emporaaah!?

*instant reflex when hearing space marine*

 

[Canadian Briton]

Turok

seeing as one chapters regular pre exercise warm up is to swim around in a lake of either chlorine or sulpher (I forget which, but hell impressive either way) for a while I don't think Hard Vacuum is really going to bother them all that much.

 

[DarkDain]

Starship Troopers.

So I guess the word Marine has no relation to the actual Military Term "Marine"
Its a sad day

Starship Troopers.

Thank You for pointing out one of the first examples of Space Marine

Wait, so anyone who writes a story about this particular subject is unimaginative?

Here's the deal: war involves marines (or some other equivalent name for a soldier). Sci-fi involves space. So basically the idea here is that anyone who writes a sci-fi war story is immediately considered unimaginative. Am I the only one seeing the immense lack of creative logic here?
