Space Siege Preview

GameShark has whipped up a short preview of Gas Powered Games’ latest action RPG project, Space Siege.

As a robotics engineer and inventor, Seth can craft all kinds of gadgets and items to wield in combat. Additionally, you can augment his natural abilities with cybernetics, although there is a trade-off. For every mechanical augmentation Seth undergoes, he loses a bit of humanity. A gauge at the top of the screen shows the balance between man and machine. You’ll have to make a choice whether you want to preserve Seth’s humanity or ditch it for combat bonuses. Supposedly there are disadvantages to reducing Seth’s human qualities, but Gas Powered Games representatives refused to go into much depth.
