Space Siege E3 Previews

A couple more E3 previews of Sega and Gas Powered Games’ recently unveiled Space Siege have made their way to the ‘net. The first is at GameSpot:

Seth’s story revolves his experiences with cybernetic experimentation. As the game progresses, Seth will be capable of replacing body parts, such as his arms, eyes, or even his lungs, with mechanical parts that will make him better.stronger.faster. These parts will also grant him special abilities that will make the game much easier than it would be otherwise. However, as you increase the amount of cybernetic upgrades on Seth, his (humanity meter) will drain. This acts as a kind of default difficulty setting for the game; you won’t switch from easy to hard mode as you get better, but will instead be able to set the level of challenge by either withholding upgrades or going for broke and attempting to make Seth into a walking robot. The other characters in the game will react differently to Seth depending on how freakish he becomes, as well, and we’re betting that the ending of the game will depend on how far you experiment with these upgrades.

And the other is at Eurogamer:

Space Siege promises to have tactical combat action, where you’ll need to dynamically use your environment to outsmart and lay ambushes for your enemies. You’ll do this with the help of your customisable robot partner, HR-V.

Everything from the robot’s armour, weapons and special equipment can be upgraded, and it will respond to your commands to help make your fancy manoeuvres successful. The pair of you can even combine your efforts to pull off special moves. Flipper and that freckly boy could never do that.
