Video Game Reviews of Space SiegeCustomer Review: Pretty, but pretty dull too Summary: 2 StarsSet aboard a space ship over-run with aliens. You, with the help of a trusty robot assistant, go around the ship undertaking tasks and blasting aliens. So far so good, but there is where it all falls down. While this is quite good to look at, it is very very dull, and while it tries to be innovative but ends up being a top down shooter with some RPG elements. You can upgrade your weapons from the bits you bit around or that are dropped by the aliens you slaughter and you can upgrade yourself into some sort of cybernaut. It should mean something but it doesn't. What actually happens is rather tedious and the game lacks any level of tension or challenge. You follow your missions, you kill aliens, you die occasionally but then you regenerate a little way back and carry on. Dull, dull, dull.
Reminded me a lot of Shadowgrounds which was better and didn't pretend to be something it wasn't.
Probably best avoided or waiting until you can get it for a budget price (trust me, it won't be long!)
