News::Space Hulk: Ascension Edition Review - Gamespot

Gamespot: "Space Hulk: Ascension gets it right. Developer Full Control Studios dropped the storm bolter last year in its first shot at adapting this Games Workshop board game classic, sticking too closely to the formula of the 1989 original. The designers have loosened their collars this time around. While they respect the intense Space Marine-versus-Alien duel at the heart of the original experience, more of the Warhammer 40,000 universe has been tossed into the mix, along with many new features that bridge the gap between the old board game and contemporary turn-based strategy gaming. There are still some lingering issues with the insanely punishing difficulty, and some quirks with the visuals and the interface. But this is still a much improved take on Space Hulk that, oddly enough, feels truer to the original game even as it moves farther away from it."
