"Last month, Seed Studios teased us with a splash page website featuring the silhouettes of three characters for an upcoming PS3 exclusive called Under Siege. No details on the game were given at the time, but after a recent update to the website, we now have the first details on Under Siege as well as a first look at the game in pre-alpha stage.

According to Seed Studios Lead Designer Bruno Ribeiro, Under Siege is a Real Time Strategy game that is built from the ground up for the PlayStation 3.

"Under Siege features an original world, unique gameplay elements and a control scheme designed with a console controller in mind," Ribeiro said. "We are also working on implementing a large number of multiplayer and community features with special emphasis on user generated content."

As you can see from the pre-alpha game shots, the visuals are very impressive. We are already waiting in anticipation to see more. Be sure to stay tuned as Seed Studios is expected to reveal more over the coming months."

first time i know that there is an exclusive Strategy game for the ps3.

they should have gone for the futuristic game...

Is this like the PS3's Halo Wars?

Anyway, not much to see here, really. Art direction doesn't really do anything for me, but then, there's not really much art to see here. Maybe later screenshots will impress me more. =)

The pre-alpha is already much more detailed than Halo Wars:

lol...is this the one that someone said was going to be like fable based on a silhouette ?

screenshots look nice.

I like the art style. Its like a cross between Stronghold and Fable.

It looks quite nice, but I am always sceptical about RTS games on consoles.

OMG! Already people are comparing it to Halo Wars. wtf. The only similarity is that they are both RTS... Under Siege isn't even a futuristic RTS...

I don't have high hopes for this game.

Looking better than Halo Wars in still pictures as a means of saying this game is better than Halo Wars is fail.

More so than any other genre (except perhaps fighting games), a console RTS game must have intuitive controls and a rock solid frame rate. Judging by the early console RTS attempts, making really nice textures and not worrying about frame rate doomed most of the genre uptil now.

Not buying this game (I hate RTS games anyway).

It looks nice, with a nice atmosphere. Would've probably served better as a Baldur's Gate type of game, because RTS on consoles will probably pretty much ... suck >_>

In any case, let's hope I'm proven wrong about the RTS-part. Anyhoo, it looks all right, they got my attention at this point.

...you have me interested.
