"Can't wait to get this one"
Version: Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War demo
Summary
The immersion of this game is intense, and seeing orks fly across your screen when your Dreadnaught throws them never gets old. Wish the demo had more than just Space Marines, but IÂ’ll be buying the game as soon as it comes out anyway. AND, itÂ’s very nice not to have to worry about sending your peasants to mine gold and harvest lumber. Always a plus.

"Awsome!"
Version: Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War demo
Summary
Thought I'd give it a try on Saturday morning for something to pass away an hour or two - big mistake! What a game - easy to get to grips with, fast paced and totally indulging! The navigation around the screen was a little tricky at first and the unit limit is a bit of a pain until you get used to it and set up a balanced force but on reflection is a good feature. The graphics are fantastic - if only I could get a screen shot (maybe in the replay in the full version?) - could go on for ages which for someone who rarely plays games like this is something - my better half has hardly seen me when I have had some free time since - this game should come with an addiction warning! Whatever will it be like when the full version with multiplayer hits the shelves?

"The best squad level RTS, and it's only the Demo!"
Version: Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War demo
Summary
After going both through the multiplayer Beta and this demo, I can safely say that this game will revolutionize small scale fast-paced strategy games on the computer, and it's really due to the fact that it stays so faithful to the original Warhammer 40,000 rules, and the spirit of the game. Bravo. I recommend people buy this when it comes out, it could be the next huge game. Fans of Starcraft especuially will love this.

"GR8!!! 100% 10/10"
Version: Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War demo
Summary
i think that warhammer 40k DOW (dawn of war) IS the BEST RST out on the markit at the time but closey followed by games like AOM and C&C, but yeh over all after playing the beta and the demo i think this game will be the next big thing. hopefuly it will not be sold ou tof shops on the first day. i also like the fact that the player can change the teams colours and flags to personlize it, makes it feel like you are apart of the programing. internet play looks gr8 but i hope i wont be laggy like on games like halo and SOF2. over all 10/10 couldn't of done a better job

"Sweeeeet"
Version: Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War demo
Summary
Warhammer 40k has always held a fascination for me, and this demo seems to indicate that they've really pulled off the atmosphere of the game universe.
Definitely will buy this. -
"Just. Plain. Awesome"
Version: Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War demo
Summary
Though I did have some trouble initially with getting this thing to install, once I did, I was in heaven. I play Warhammer 40k, and to see those Space Marines in action was a real treat for me. Unfortunately, you can only utilise the Space Marines in this demo, but I still recommend downloading it.

"Fantastic"
Version: Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War demo
Summary
This game is gonna blow you away, and im sure it will appeal to RTS fans who have not heard of Warhammer, as well as those who have.
I have been lucky enough to be on the beta testing for this game, so i kinda knew what to expect, but the single player demo gives a decent taste of what to expect, i couldnt reccoment it more.
