Dawn of War 2 £22.99 (preorder) @Shopto.net
£22.99
This is actually the second cheapest I could find it. It was £21.90 at pure-games.co.uk (http://pure-games.co.uk/products/Dawn_of_War_II_PC_16-382-0.html) but as I had never heard of this company I decided to post the Shopto deal. If you fancy a punt on the other go for it but for a quid more you can stick with the tried and trusted Shopto. Yp to you I guess.
If you've played any of the previous games in this series then you'll no doubt be looking forward to this. At this price it seems well worth it.
Developed by award winning Relic Entertainment, Dawn of War II ushers in a new chapter in the acclaimed RTS series - taking players to the brutal frontlines of war to lead an elite strike force on a mission to save the galaxy.
Brutal Frontline Action & Tactics: Get straight into the action and experience intense melee and devastating ranged combat. Use vicious melee sync-kills to obliterate your enemies. Outsmart your opponents using dynamic and destructible environments to suppress, flank and destroy your foes.

Kwokalicious:
is it worth an extra £2/3 for these 'special edition' packages? They may look very nice up close but during a game are you really paying that much attention to such details? Do they confer any special abilities in-game? Also, we have special tactical and assault marines, what about the devastators? Anyone doing specials on them? If they do confer special abilities in game I wouldn't imagine they would be massively significant as you will be able to use them right from the start and consequently this would bring serious imbalance into the game as a whole. In all honesty though I don't know for sure what these features do so pick the one that suits you the best.  |
