I love space marines
Sunday, December 5, 2010 at 02:02PM You with the face, read this article!
So I love space marines, and thats about all you actually need to read of this post, if u strive on, i congratulate you on having far more free time than you should, RETURN TO WORK DRONE. I might be an extremist but if I could marry Commander Mr/Mrs. Shepard, i would without hesitation.
There is just something appealing about going on an epic journey throughout the cosmos being able to explore brand new planets, and sights you as drones would never otherwise see. That and a lot of space marine games have kick-ass gameplay (mass effect, halo, etc.). I'm not saying that all the space marines games are fantastic, but for the most part thats why they are very popular right now, and anyone who dissaproves is probably just very jealous. (and they are all soooo adopted)
The simple fact of the matter is drones that nothing in the world beats playing Halo: Reach in your underwear at one in the morning, its just the way man was supposed to live. Or dropping two hundred odd hours into mass effect to create every possible type of character imaginable. It is the pull of these vast fantasy worlds that draws us in and ensnares our attention until we forget who we are and where our pants have dissapeared off too, it is a pull all of us must at one time or another answer to.
Looking back on this post I appear to be as jumpy as a bipolar crack addict, but that might also be because I type this as I am watching Seargeant Johnson die for the twentieth time, leading me to be as emotionally unstable as a pregnant woman...no offense...WHY SARGE??? But to wrap it all up, space marines should not be hated on but accept that they are going to be amazing and should be beloved by all

Except that one of your main examples, Commander Shepard from Mass Effect, really isn't anything resembling a space marine in the traditional sense.
he flies through space on a ship and kills shit, basic definition of space marine
no the cultural definition of a space marine has come to mean a soldier in massive armor who wields guns twice their size against horrible aliens, examples of a space marine are marcus fenix and master chief, the reason this is what a space marine is comes from Warhammer 4,000's version which set the basis for other games such as Star Craft and Halo which further popularized the image.
hey marcus fenix never flies around on a space ship...well he should but he doesnt so there
