I'm a newbie to the Space Hulk series, having only played a short section of the original DOS game. There are several great things about this game. Firstly it's based on a board game, a very tactical one at that. You have two completely different factions at war. The slow-moving gun-toting Terminators and the vicious Genestealers. The main campaign is composed of a series of missions, each one with different objectives. There are many classes of Terminators which serve to spice up the gameplay such as the melee-crazed ones and those with a flamethrower.

The drawbacks are mainly with regards to animation, there are a few clipping issues and generally it doesn't hold up with games such as XCom or Fallout. Graphics are servicable but won't really require a lot of processing power, on the other hand of course it will run on decent laptops. I bought this while it was on a sale and if you like the concept, it may be worth picking up.
