Starsiege Shipped

March 18, 1999: Dynamix, a Sierra Company, began shipping the eagerly-anticipated Starsiege to stores throughout the United States and Canada.

Starsiege Shipped hits the March 1999 news desk on March 18, 1999. Dynamix, a Sierra Company, began shipping the eagerly-anticipated Starsiege to stores throughout the United States and Canada.

The flagship title of the Starsiege Universe, Starsiege represents a breakthrough for science fiction combat sims and is being heralded as the frontrunner in the market due to its ease of play, the quality of its graphics and multiplayer gameplay, and the depth of its storyline. Starsiege – which brings both single-player campaign missions, scripted multiplayer missions, and Internet play for two to 16 players – represents Dynamix's most intensive and technologically elaborate project in its 15-year history. Now it leaves the press-release fog and goes where it belongs: onto hard drives, store shelves, and multiplayer lobbies.
