Plus, Space Marines are orders of magnitude more badass. I mean seriously, they never lose. If they are coming close to losing, they destroy the entire planet, which is a win.
Gears of War spends three games looking at one skirmish on a backwater, nothing planet involving hundreds of combatants. Meanwhile over here in the 40k universe, millions are killed every minute in a pan-galactic everwar with utterly no end in sight.
Pan-galactic Everwar sounds like a prog concept album.
Also it's refreshing to see a sensibly dressed and groomed female soldier in a videogame.
Personally I'm not fussed about single player skins and will still just be waiting for reviews rather than pre-ordering. Currently we know it looks awesome but I need to hear more impressions on how it plays before they get my cash.
I like that you never see a young space marine. What's the deal there? Are they in training for the first 40 years of their life, or does the darkly grimness of their existence just age them rapidly?

Most chapters recruit battle hardened badasses from feral planets in their sectors in space and then put those badasses through training and body enhancements which, in time, will turn them into scouts which in turn will turn them into space marines

Pretty much the first thing. Young Marines are Scouts. They need to earn that power armour!

Important to note that a Dreadnought is basically a walking cybernetic sarcophagus reserved for mortally wounded Space Marines. They basically stuff the remains of a mostly dead space marine hero in there, put some cables in his brain and store him away in some vault until he's needed for a greater war effort. Some dreadnoughts are many thousands of years old. I think the oldest one is well over 10.000 years old now and actually fought in the Horus Heresy when the Emperor was still alive
Bonus fluff:
Ten thousand years ago, before his internment within a Dreadnought, Bjorn fought alongside Primarch Leman Russ of the Space Wolves Legion during the Horus Heresy and saw the Emperor before he was interred in the Golden Throne. During the aftermath of the Horus Heresy, Bjorn sought to rebuild the Imperium with such conviction that Leman Russ elevated him to become a member of his personal retinue. He was the only member of Leman Russ's personal Wolf Guard that was left behind when Russ departed for the Eye of Terror. This deed left Bjorn harboring intense feelings of rejection and bitterness to this very day.
After Russ' disappearance, Bjorn assumed the Primarch's leadership of the Space Wolves, becoming the Chapter's first Great Wolf. His heroic career at the head of the Space Wolves ended during a raid against a fortress in the 31st Millennium, when he was so severely wounded and crippled that he was beyond the aid of the Chapter's Apothecaries. To preserve Bjorn's life, his paralyzed body was transplanted within a Space Wolf Dreadnought. Over the following five hundred years, he remained at the forefront of battle. Eventually the long years took their toll on the warrior, and he began spending longer and longer periods dormant in stasis sleep. Now he is only awakened once every thousand years, or when the Chapter has the greatest need of his potent skills and wisdom. He is also awakened at the dawn of each new century to hold court at the Great Feast, where he recounts elements from his own saga to his Battle-Brothers. He represents the Chapter's link to the past, and is revered by the Space Wolves as a hero almost as great as Leman Russ.

Does anyone know the system requirements of it for the PC? I want to know if my crappy 9500 GT will run it at least on medium settings.
On a better side note, 40k is indeed a wonderful and fascinating universe to get into story wise. I've never played the TT game and yet I probably know a good decent amount of it since I was introduced in 2005. Dawn of War was to thank for that.
The setting is set up in a way that you can have hundreds and hundreds of battles in a single sub-sector of the galaxy and the greater whole will not be affected whatsoever.
I'm not the biggest fan of the Imperium as a whole, but I'm still excited as hell for this game. Likewise, Space Marine wise I don't like the Black Templars a shit bunch, but I'd be stupid not to admit I'm in love with that skin.
It's a shame then that I'll probably be pre-ordering from Steam. But the Blood Ravens are close to my heart since they're literally the first actual exposure I have with 40k, so consequently they're still one of my favorite chapters. I just wish the Skin had a little more detail than being a standard power armor.

He sent you to the wrong place. Lexicanum is where you want to go to learn up on the lore. Let's start you off with the article for Space Marines and you'll have a half dozen tabs open by half way down the page.
I read up on Lexicanum on a daily basis, even though I'm positive I've read 90% of all the articles.

20 years of gaming and I don't think I've ever pre-ordered anything. That I am so tempted by something so trivial a single skin is unexpected.
The Takahashi preview thing, I like how when he raises his inane questions with Relic, and they quickly and easily answer them with the equivalent of "don't be so stupid", he somehow takes this as validating his point because they were prepared for his ridiculous questions.
Like, I mean, there was a sketch on this Chris Morris TV show 'Jam', where they propsed the ideas of having employable idiots to argue your case, because it's simply impossible to argue and defeat someone so incomprehensibly thick. There's like a whole, other baffling layer of stupidity that the average person simply can't even begin to fathom, where it's impossible to argue because you can't even grasp the basic physical mechanics of their crazy dreamworld.

Lexicanum is good for lore, but to try and get an idea of the flavor of the 40k universe the Tropes are a good way to go.
And to be somewhat on-topic, I pre-ordered the collector's edition. I'm weak.

This will be a steamworks game so no matter where you get it from, you'll be able to put it on steam. Apparently the reason it's not available at the Best Buy online store was the pre-orders were sold out or something. I had to go to the store itself and they're going to ship it to my house. Crazy.

I'm pretty sure no Ecclesiarch or Inquisitor would be insane enough to piss off the Ultramarines like that. Most Inquisitors try not to piss off random successor chapters, the Ultramarines have pretty much their own empire, and most of their successor chapters are basically part of that empire :P

it's a shame the Ultramarines CGI movie was so bad
There's a reason Cortana is a woman. There's a reason Anya is a woman. There's a reason in the real world the warming messages in fighter-jet cockpits are all spoken by a female voice.
"In a mixed ship, the last thing a trooper hears before a drop (maybe the last word he ever hears) is a woman's voice, wishing him luck. If you don't think this is important, you've probably resigned from the human race."
I like that you never see a young space marine. What's the deal there? Are they in training for the first 40 years of their life, or does the darkly grimness of their existence just age them rapidly?
The ones who aren't all grizzled and scarred and awesome have their helmets closed.
Only when your aura of badass reaches a point where it can substitute for a full helmet with integrated HUD, coms, and environmental controls do you get to take it off.

It's mostly the same footage but they confirm that TITANS will be part of the story. I would love to see an actual titan ruining shit in a 40K game
