I think this is the first time outside of Half Life 2 and Episode 1 where you could gift an extra copy of a game.

Is Space Siege even worth it?

The review on it doesn't seem that great

 

[buckythekat]

definitely want Alpha Protocol don't really care about Space Siege but it's a nice bonus

Space Siege is made by the people behind Dungeon Siege. I haven't played SS (have played DS) so even if it is a bad version of Dungeon Siege it might be worth it.

Alpha Protocol does look pretty awesome. Hopefully it's well optimized for the PC. I don't think i'm going to have any time to play it until next year since i already have my fall/winter gaming all planned out. The free game is a nice bonus, even if it does kinda suck (i only played the demo, but didn't like it).

Sapce Siege is terrible. Nothing compared to Dungeon Siege.

Nope. Several other pre-order offers have also allowed you to gift extra copies (but only those obtained from the pre-order).

I wouldn't say it's terrible, but you are correct in saying that it's nothing like the Dungeon Siege games. I feel it's worth getting as a freebie.
