Summary: A Good Game That Could Have Been A Great Game
Review: Ever own a game that you can't decide if you like it? Sure, you read the reviews and bought it on their recommendations, but in the end it's your opinion that counts, right? This is my problem with Starsiege from Dynamix. On the one hand it's an obvious quality product with no obvious glitches or crashes, has a good interface, music and sound effects. Dynamix even went above and beyond the call by producing a Starsiege Compendium-a 96 page companion book to the main manual. This details the history, characters, and vehicles that populate the universe of the 29th century. On the other hand, the game is...missing something. Perhaps it's the fact that you literally have to nickle and dime your opponents to death before each mech is destroyed, providing you can actually hit them. (Something neither your AI controlled allies and enemies don't suffer from). The in-game sound effects must be reset from basic install specs - the music drowns out all communication and in-game dialogue. Lastly, the mech designs are abysmal! Most of the weapon discharge sounds - gunfire, lasers, etc. are uninspired. Considering this game came out after Mechwarrior 2, why do the mechs look worse that technologically inferior game? I mean, surely they must be able to come up with something a little more original than a jukebox with legs or a June bug with long legs? There is a good game in here trying to get out. The story is compelling, the missions well designed, the mechs and tanks easy to control, with the excepting of speed settings and forward/reverse switching. The 3D support is well handled without being over done, and colored lighting is not overused. The terrain texture mapping and landscape detail is exquisite as is the positional shadows. However, graphically pretty it might be, the explosion of mech is almost comical-a little flash in the torso area then all the bits fall to the ground. If you're far enough back you get an expanding purple ring, (I want to thank ILM and Star Trek VI for making that the current most copied special effect!) Missions are well presented with Mark Hammil in the role of Harabec, the dispossessed Knight from the Terran Empire, and who has joined the resistance to lead them and the guy you work for. He briefs you then you are free to recruit squad mates then equip yourselves. As you progress in missions you gain access to heavier mech units, new technology and more powerful weapons. The mission difficulty curve gets steep - fast. And five or six missions in your scrambling just to stay alive, let alone complete your mission objectives. Squad mates are essential, but you will get to used to the fact that they will rack up a higher kill score than you will. Either that or I just stink at this game, but I don't think so. I think as an anime fan I expect too much from the domestic market as far as mecha design go. Even the original twelve mechs included in the Battletech boxed set were from Macross or Armored Trooper Votoms, the Wasp is from Crusher Joe. However, as Monolith Productions and the game Shogo: Mobile Armored Core and Dream Pod 9 (Heavy Gear) have proven, this doesn't have to be the case, and they provided very fresh mecha designs. The Starsiege units are uninspired at best, even allowing for the fact that many of them are modified labor or construction units. Is this a great game? No, it's a good game. But there is a great game in there trying to get out.

Summary: SS is the shiznat
Review: I bought SS when it first came out over 4 years ago. I've have never uninstalled it from my system, and have played it at least once a month since I first bought the game (give or take a few months of no play) Even today it's still a great game with an awesome community!

Summary: Tribes is better
Review: I own both Starsiege and Starsiege:Tribes. This game is a MechWarrior clone with worse controls. If you like that kind of game, go right ahead and buy this. But, for the same price, you get a better game in Tribes (as long as you don't mind the FPS with a semi-HUD as opposed to the full HUD FPS.)

Summary: THIS GAME IS COOL!
Review: I will tell you, this is the best game EVER! (well, maybe not ever) It is very cool. Here's what you do: #1. You go around killing people in vehicles called Hercs. (Herculean blah blah blah.) #2. Join a squad and advance in rank. Once you do that, you will get better and get new configs. #3. Get a BETTER computer! The optimum speed should be, say, 500 mgz. Laser mouses are a MUST HAVE. Targeting is the key to survival! If you have an old mouse, throw it out and get a better one.
