The one beneath the cut, I mean. At least, I don't think he is, but I'm prepared to be more open-minded. He is talking about Space Marines, however - specifically what it's like to shoot dudes in Warhammer 40,000 Online, an MMO still keeping the vast majority of its cards against its heavily-armoured, subcutaneously reinforced chest.

More soon, please, THQ. Let's see how this sucker really plays.
