Space Siege Sega (Gas Powered Games)2008[spoiler=Show endings;Hide endigs]1. Player fights PILOT with no (or little?) cybernetics installed
... a "romantic" ending with Gina
2. Player fights PILOT with all or most cybernetics installed
... soldier's duty ending, with some simple thoughts on why you installed the cybernetics
3. Player sides with PILOT
... all humans are turned into cyborgs

All share the point that the Armstrong heads towards the other colony ship they mentioned much earlier in the game. The conflict with the Kerak remains unresolved as well, so the ending is open enough to easily allow a sequel.[/spoiler]***[b]Minimum:[/b]

Supreme Commander  THQ (Gas Powered Games)2007Three opposing sides - the Cybran Nation, the Aeon Illuminate and the United Earth Federation - have been fighting in the Infinite War all across the galaxy, spreading chaos and unrest. You are a Supreme Commander and you have to take one of the sides and put an end to this war.

As in most strategy games, you have to build up a base, gather resources and build armies to fight off your enemies. But being created by Chris Taylor of Total Annihilation fame, the RTS also has many unique features, such as a huge unit cap of 500 units per side, different resource management, queue up commands and waypoints, diverse unit types and even dual screen support.

Players can play through the Campaign and carry on the story as one of the sides, or fight off computer enemies in Skirmish and human opponents in Multiplayer.***

Supreme Commander: Forged Alliance  THQ (Gas Powered Games)2007The last days of man are at hand.. Two years after the Infinite War the once great warring nations now lie in ruins, and humanity’s hope for a brighter future is nothing but a bitter memory. A new, seemingly unstoppable enemy, supported by the zealots of The Order, now seeks to eradicate mankind: UEF, Aeon Loyalist, and Cybran alike. With their backs against the wall and staring into the abyss, the tattered remnants of Humanity’s forces must put aside old hatreds and band together as they prepare to make one last desperate stand. One last chance. An alliance forged in blood, steel and hope, they turn to face the dark.
