Kill Team

No this isn't a commentary on the riot situation.... Tonight was spent trying out the new PS3 game Warhammer 40K: Kill Team. Have to say that for a cheap download game it is very good. The incentive for playing this is to unlock an item that will then be available in the much awaited Space Marine game (due to be released in the Autumn).

The graphics are very good and represent the 40K universe very well. It is very clear that Games Workshop had a strong controlling hand in the development. The gameplay is also pretty good with simple controls and smooth play and transitions.

I live in some vain hope that they might expand the game at some point to allow the playing of other armies as at the moment you can only be Space Marines. I'd love to see this engine used to create an Eldar or Dark Eldar option. Enemies so far have been Orks and Tyrannids and I'm wondering if there might be some more guest appearances from other races.

Sam and I both give Kill Team a big thumbs up so if you are into Warhammer 40K and have an Xbox or PS3 then you should definitely get this game!
