Great story which feels particularly relevant in today's world of AI. I liked the trust mechanic, and satisfying gun play of dismembering the robots.

such a fascinating game made in such a weird time. im surprised it plays this well i feel like i am doing archeology digging up a old high production game that got memory holed out of existence. what makes this game so obscure? is it genuinely just a mediocre third person shooter from the gears of war era? I don't think so, maybe this Is just one of those weird games I vibe with. Its kinda like the same feeling I get with vanquish, the lost planet games and earth defence force. its that feeling where somewhere in the late 2000's during japans culture boom you had these studios try to make something for the western market and the result is this interesting fusion of ideas where these two styles of gaming and aesthetics clash and that is just fascinating to me. the actual game itself is pretty fun too, unfortunately there isn't much I can say about it but it all comes together when you are the one controlling it. it made me get existential about the disappearance of art in the public consciousness, not the games fault its just that I feel bad playing something this interesting and well produced but at the same time its completely unknown and forgotten. well i noticed you binary domain, i appreciated you. 7.8/10

I played this game while recovering from gallbladder surgery at my grandma's house, so I have some fond memories of it. It's fun, weird, has NOTHING to do with Yakuza but it sure feels similar in the cutscenes. Kinda strange in how the plot is executed, but overall, pretty fun Gear's styled shooter. Considering how rarely Gears style games are good, that is a pretty hefty compliment.

TL-DR: This original cover shooter stands out in a sea of generic cover shooters. Binary Domain is a PS3/360 era underrated classic. You face off against all sorts of Robot's with your ally's who will obey or disobey your commands depending on how much they trust you. PROS: + Fast, fluid action + Beautiful cutscene graphics (Same team that do the cutscenes for the Yakuza series so no wonder) + Runs like a dream on a decent old GPU + Fun banter between characters in cutscenes + Headshots are so satisfying. *PING!* + Great action OST (Albiet far too quiet in game) CONS: - A little short - Some frustrating moments including Quick Time Events and stopping Robots from blowing up a fuel tank which took a bit of trial and error - The music is very quiet for some reason - The a.i commands are next to pointless, I found myself very rarely using them - Final Boss is one tough S.O.B on Normal difficulty and above Overall, Binary Domain took me 7 and a half hours to complete on the easiest difficulty. It provided a consistant challenge throughout and I'd give it an 8/10. TIP FOR WORKING 360 GAMEPAD CONTROLS AND ICONS: .Launch the Config File from the games installation folder and choose 360 Pad under controls. .Now, launch the Binary Domain.exe from the games installation folder. NOT through the Steam Client!

Hard to believe that SEGA hasn't made a sequel already, this game is good, runs good, and looks good from beginning to end.
