Yeah!.. the dropship has arrived!...

Dawn of War II its finally here!..

I've gotten the Collector's Edition, the steelbook case looks awesome!

The only setback it doesn't comes with poster.. instead it comes with a newsletter which promotes the game itself..

SinglePlayer :-
==========
1st impression of the game, solid feeling esp. its new updated engine.

Sound, excellent as usual from music to dialogs with its surroundsound capability.

Graphics, solid as i stated earlier on, and very detailed units esp. animations (nuthin beats Relic.. well so far.. heh) which its expected from Relic.

Gameplay, yes!.. finally got to play its singleplayer campaigns. I gotta say pretty cool, has RPG elements in a RTS game.. altho doesn't really feels like RTS game as it doesn't have much building production and its limited units.

A unique gameplay i shld say... after a few missions i like it, not yer typical game genre which its pretty good as a fresh feeling to it.

The RPG elements pretty cool (add attributes), as it has BOSS level (like Diablo..lol)... cool2.gif ... crazy man... the BOSS... can do massive powers and etc., as my hero kana whack till fly here fly there.. lol...

All and all.. i feel that this time Relic really concentrate on its singleplayer which has better storytelling as it has proper cutscenes this time.

Talking abt its cutscenes, Relic's trademark its back!.. w00t!.. as the cutscenes its like the ones in HomeWorld series... 2d/3d concept... looks great thumbup.gif

So far the cons for its :-
================
1. can savegame anywhere.. it saves like Diablo does.. save and exit.. kinda way... darnit
2. theres no restart mission, as sometimes i wanna try different strategies.

Hopefully these options will be added in upcoming patch.

Just a short playing time.. i'll rate this game..

89/100 tomatoez wink.gif (i gave most of the points to the singleplayer campaigns).

Cheers
