I don't really care for much in the way of 'Space Marine Armor' as I am a mighty Sangheili and the foolish tin plates humanity wear to preserve their sniveling hides accomplish only the ability for me to mock them for their inferiority.
However if I had to pick two armors (currently anyway) that are the best one is from Halo: Reach and the other is from Mass Effect. One armor is for the men and the other is for the women, let's have a look.
Halo for sir:
And Mass Effect's for the lady:
They both look awesome, one looks high tech and detailed and the other lacks detail but has great color balance and... *ahem*... compliments the subject's figure.... which is certainly not to suggest that I would ever demean myself enough to ever consider a lowly human attractive, no sir I most certainly would never think in such terms!
General Xalmirr: "VREX!! Are you fantasizing about human females again?"
Sub Commander Vrex: "No my lord. Never, I loathe their species with a fiery passion that can outshine a thousand suns."
General Xalmirr:".... Very good, just checking."
Sub commander Vrex: "I understand we must be vigilant if our plan is to succeed!"
*Xalmirr leaves, now alone Vrex once again looks past the spoiler on the second picture and drools

Yeah I will agree with that, it's certainly more believable then the traditional marine armor. It also looks cool too.Marik2 said:I like the ODST armor seems the most practical to me.
Tragically superheated plasma cuts through them like paper and the glorious Sangheili laugh in triumph at the never ending stupidity of the human scum... MWA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!
The Starcraft space marine armor is seriously just a plagiarized version of the Warhammer 40k Space Marine armor.
Like everything else in Blizzard's repertoire, very little of what they have is uniquely their own. IMO, their armor shouldn't even be in the poll. Or count all votes for that to W40k.
Besides, Warhammer Space Marines are insane. Fused armor plates into the skin, they've got extra organs. And they can eat shit that billy goats couldn't and projectile puke acid.

I have to agree here. The nifty wrist mounted, spring loaded vibro blade is by far my favorite melee weapon in any game.Fidelias said:Also, on a similar note, the armor from Star Wars Republic Commando. It's just badass!!!
See, the guys I mentioned look like they're about to kill someone.
Well...DUH, it's FROM a fantasy setting. Hell its more realistic than the laughably stupid 40K armor with all it's 'trying too hard' attitude. The Nano suit along with the prevfiously mentioned ODST armor actually LOOK like something that we could seeing being made in the near future, and it's practical. I value practicality over flair in my space marine design thank you very much.Kurokami said:
Totally! I want to make one in real life...and the armor...man I wish I could buy these guysTossth Esalad said:I have to agree here.

40k does Space Marines best.
And to all those saying that it restricts movement...noitdoesn't. <<
Adeptus Astartes go through so much genetic and surgical changes (they have two hearts, two stomachs, can spit acid) that they even get a layer of armor put under their actual skin, and attaches to their nerves, which the power armor than hooks up into matrix-style. This way, they are just as quick, agile, and mobile as they would be naked. Hell, their running speed is even increased because of the power and fiber bundles which increase their strength so that they lift trucks and tanks with ease (not to mention punching through armored bulkheads)! So, now you have a 10-foot tall, 400-years of killing, tank-armored zealot that is not only running at you with the speed of a car and swinging around a sword that can cut through just about anything, but also firing a rapid-fire, armor-piercing grenade launcher (.75 caliber rounds).
...pwned.
