Space Hulk 3DO Intro

[@ShadowTheHeavy]

I'm quite amazed, for the age of this game, how accurate the information in this is to the mainstream 40k canon. Many of these games kind of fall off into making generic descriptions for the likes of Terminator armour or the backstory of Genestealers (although they hadn't made their minds up about the Tyranid parts)

[@Theigzorn]

+Yuyuko Saigyouji at the time the first Spacehulk plays there were only whispers of the tyranits, genstealers were seen more of a Mutation or a Sickness because no one (as far as i remember) seen the connection to the hivemind.

[@CrashHeadroom]

@@Theigzorn Old comment, sorry to resurrect it but thought id throw my hat in. Yes and no. Back then tyranids had a very different story but has been changed and messed with as is tradition in warhammer. At THIS POINT in time, they were more a scavenger spieces. They wouldnt infest, they would just raid a world, steal tech and evolve themselves over and over to the best point. They even had other speices in with them, one was called the LAER and would act as faux representitives to open peace / trade talks but really it was just to scout out a new civilisation to own. At this point in time? They had just started to come into the milky way in deserted space hulks.

I am 28 years old and when I played this game mid-way through highschool when it came out it gave me some very awesome and inspiring dreams... all from this stunning into and the tense, claustrophobic game play with great game tactics and play... I love those scenes of space and the fascinating "ancient architecture" for state-of-the-art space flight. I love the TERMINATOR ARMOR suits. Very old and still top of the line. GREAT MUSIC! Thanks for the upload!

[@kellerweskier7214]

3DO. a truly unique company with truly unique titles... encased in time by its own downfall. 3DO is like that ancient civilization you random across and see how much better they where for their own time. I grew up off the Army Men games. games that people just recently started remaking to bring back some of that feel. But... its just not the same.

[@KingLich451]

Yeah, they made a big gamble for their game console, and lost it. What a shame.

[@fordgt402]

This is the FPS that combine hand to hand combat skills,shooting accuracy and strategy.Those who completed the game is fit to become commanders.

[@101stsurvivor]

yes this was when they had the genestealer cults

[@TheCockeyez]

A rare 10 year old comment.

[@Jesyce86]

This was back in the days when Genestealers were their own race wasn't it?

[@mintydog06]

Brilliant, the best intro ever, the ONLY difference is that the PC version has different music, though you have a choice of new PC music to play or original 3D0

[@Zapinc9]

That is shocking - From 1993 all the way up to 2011, the newest codex still states the exact same thing about terminators

[@archvile2000000]

Was this back when the genestealers were their own race instead of being recognized as a part of the tyranids.

[@irish0dragon0warrior]

Tonight on Deadliest Warrior: The Genestealer vs The Xenomorph!

[@randomusernamemygod]

I like this kind sci fi, dark and brutal the 40k only war kind. Not into their board games but their games and fiction is great.

[@marty0398]

awsome game!!! they dont make 'em like they used too!!

[@AtorTFE]

You're correct, although no-one ever bothered to post this version (english) of the intro, and since the only intro being shown was the '93 cinema, I posted the one which I captured off my (clunky but still workin)3DO. I thought fans would be interested in seeing this even though there was a japanese language version already circulating since it's different from the PC title aready being viewed on KZbin.

[@mintydog06]

Dissapointing? are you kidding? I loved this game, its one of the best games EA ever released, they could never do anything like this anymore. I only wish they had the sense to make a squal to this in the Doom3 engine or something.

[@meanmanturbo]

Lionus...Geat out of my way!

[@meanmanturbo]

no, in the rouge trader book (granted, 1st ed 40k was more like the inquisitor skirmish game then what we have now) genstealers were listed in the "assorted monsters" section, and not connected to tyranids. Do not know for sure if they were cannonized into tyranids when the Space Hulk board game was made though.

[@BPCRevere]

Bear in mind that this IS essentially a sequel - the original '93 PC version was the Deathwing version, then a few years later Vengeance of the Blood Angels came out - nicer graphics, new campaign and so on - on the PC, Playstation and 3DO.

[@MaraW1832]

I love how the narrator actually says "ess-chew"

[@AtorTFE]

Original PC title had a different intro. Saturn and Playstation versions are direct ports of the 3DO release.

[@charlesballiet7074]

I feel like a quarter of the youtube creators have a voice/mic that sounds just like this

[@pwnmaster77]

yeh your right the shield arm should be less armored becuase the shield makes up for it

[@Astartes94]

1000 is indeed correct. however, before the Horus Heresy, the space marine LEGIONS were allowed to recruit as many warriors from their planet as they please. But after, it was ruled that 1000 be the maximum number to prevent something like the Heresy from ever happening again.

[@GeneralSturnn]

true there were 20(2 Primarchs were unknown so you could make up your own Primarch) there were 9 Traitor and 9 loyalist.

[@mcz1945]

Dark angels is the first space marine chapter EVER.

[@Astartes40000]

lmfao the sound bites made the game hilarious XD I have retreived!....an archive record

[@mintydog06]

this video is out fo sync, but its possibly the best intro ever.

[@AtorTFE]

Cool never gets old.

[@soulesswolves]

@Jesyce86 yea it was like a build up to the tyrinds as no one knew who they were then

[@AtorTFE]

That's because the PC is a port of the 3DO title. Hope it brought back some memories.

[@gobodrodiont]

Is it Tom Kane's voice?

[@runefan213]

I want to download this game..BUT I AM NOT SURE IF IT EVEN RUNS ON VISTA ANYMORE D:

[@Gorkpunch]

@DarkSoftStudios hell yeah man "Yo we heard you like warp travel so we put a warp in your warp so you can travel while you travel"

[@Vladdimir37]

When its showing the weapons...middle on the left side, is that a plasma weapon? Curious because all I know of terminators is of the latest Vanilla Space Marine Codex. I've never played any of the Space Hulk games.

[@Masonicon]

this was made by EA when EA was less of Greedy corporate scum

[@funnyshizz123]

it's "eschew", not ass-chew. :-) It means "avoid"

[@mcz1945]

The first Space marine Chapter !!

[@SoulCalibrator]

That's not Simon Temple narrorating, is it?

[@killerpawn]

DEATHWING COMPANY!

[@hutchy1k94]

@AtorTFE really?? 0.0 I just watched moonraker but I couldn't recognise that as roger!

[@RetroSanctuary]

I don't see why anyone's moaning about you posting the intro to the ORIGINAL version of SHVOTBA, the PC/Saturn/PS1 versions were all ports of this version, during this time EA were fully backing the 3DO and all of their big games were released on 3DO first.

[@tri-ox9508]

Bethor! AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

[@AtorTFE]

No. It's not Roger Moore.

[@Genesivare]

Could someone explain me, what does "ass-chew" expression mean? (I'm not native English-talker)

[@KingLich451]

they did :D looks like GW listened you

[@groovesalad123]

Hello, i'm Roger !

[@AtorTFE]

@hutchy1k94 as I originally stated - it is NOT Roger doing the narrative

[@Genesivare]

You can buy it on Ebay or Allegro.

[@Gold_Bug]

ahh man i still have this game somewhere.

[@CharlieVanLiew]

THE DARK ANGEL CHAPTER!

[@FouckoffAnddie]

this blood angel remembers

[@doko3000]

rare vid, thanks for sharing :)

[@Genesivare]

What a shame :). Asses only in my head. Thanks for explanation.

[@mcz1945]

what do you mean?

[@OpenMawProductions]

The GS's were not always 'Nids.

[@Genesivare]

It is the WARP drive...

[@SteelWool91]

Shoop da woop drive

[@weldonwin]

I think more likely they were just lazy when they made this

[@MattxMisfitx]

because they only realized that later on

[@jackoneill45]

@Vladdimir37 Nope, its a flamer.

[@Outmind01]

This was the first pc game i ever bought. It was rather dissapointing.

[@hutchy1k94]

@AtorTFE ah.... oops my mistake XD

[@Dinobot2468]

i know they shouldent have changed them
