Sega arbitrarily raising the price on such an old game due to the announcement of Space Marine 2 is ridiculous. Game's pretty wonky and its age shows, but on sale it's worth it.

I just saw this game was 60 bucks and was looking for what was added like wtf. It's a good game but I played it on the 360. Laughable it's 60 bucks.

So those waiting for SM2 who went through SM1, a sale time is the perfect time to use the feature to get BoltGun as a top gap tittle that blatantly references how this new hero will finish the work that Captain Titus started, but will sate a bit of a thirst for that wait there still is for SM2 a while longer as of this posting.

Grab it, enjoy it, send thy enemy screaming into the warp by Chainsword and High Calibre Communion.

Then maybe also play a little DarkTide now that it's largely fixed it's self up about a year later from it's first stumbling start.:fist::gh_m_guts::eagle:

PS: Also for some laughs, see what some Ork action looks like in the minds of our green skin counterparts with Shootahs, Blood, and Teef :MMWhataday:

Between the two It's like going in to deal with a true urgent problem turned worse that would contain the threat tot he sector, if not the planet, the hero having to bare the price of suspicion and slip away, at least for the time being, and for what feels like about a decade later, the never forgetting Space Marines have sent more champions down to deal with a residing threat

So much price hiked, well, I guess it depends on how you look at it. But indeed on SALE, it's a steal. And for those like myself who took that journey over a decade ago and then some? Well, it's even more a discount as the complete a collection feature that STEAM blessedly has lets you buy the combo pack at the subtraction of not only the price of what you already own, but then the discount that comes with buying them both in said pack.

So you get that 10 percent off, which stacks on top of any other percentage that comes off via a SALE.

So together with the newer boltgun game boomer shooter, just subtract it's price from what you see next to Space Marine and then you'll see the ACTUAL cost of what you're paying for a classic that is hard to believe has been 12 years ago now. To this day,at least until Space Marine 2 comes out, it's proven to be the best Warhammer 40K action experience to truly grasp the feel of being a boots on the ground Space Marine and in the thick of it.
Eternal Caused was a let down, this was NOT. If you catch this now BUNDLE cost item together on sale, it's not just worth it, it's a 1, 2 punch of brutal fun blasting, both worth their tags in the combo, and both fighters though well equipped, also have their own ways of doing combat in each of the two games, but not so much that it feels any kind of heretical.

From what i can tell at glance it's less a price hike as it is forced into a COMBO pack only. The price next to it in the combo pack is kind of throwing as it's the price of the combo pack it's self it would seem.

Can still understand some frustration not being able to buy the game SOLO...HOWEVER, from what I can tell at this time the review above may not actually be quite on point due to the miss leading price next to it in the pack due to the very fact it can no longer at this time be purchased by its self.

As for wonky, some terrain hang ups now and then? Yes, it's something at that time of gaming was becoming a bit more of an issue popping up in games again, but the game is quite the fun slaughter fest and the only few QuickTime events is like at the final fight where you need to remember not to punch just once, but mash your enemy's face to a pulp.
