Japanese Gears of War...That Works!

I was ready to quickly write off Binary Domain but the game really did surprise me. If you feel the need to be a super reductionist then you can say Binary Domain is "Gears of War made by Japanese peo… Read more

A Look Back At Binary Domain

With Waypoint starting up a monthly video game club I decided to take part in it. Since I like writing small reviews of most of the games I play I figured it wouldn’t hurt to review this month's game… Read more

“I can’t leave without my buddy Big Bo!”

Sega and Yakuza Team have put together an impressive package – Some of the best shooting action of 2012 with some memorable characters and a slick presentation on par with the Metal Gear series. In Bi… Read more

The shooting is satisfying but the bells and whistles surrounding it could have used a little more polish.

The Rad Solid shooting and handling. Robot enemys are fun to dismantle. French robot The Bad Trust system is compromised by dumb A.I. partner. Voice recognition fails more often than not. I don’t feel… Read more

Far Better than it has Any Right Being

At first glance, many would merely say that Binary Domain is Japan's answer to Gears of War, an obvious attempt to appeal to a massive audience in the West. But hidden underneath the layer of "me to"… Read more

Surprising good

A little surprising gem to me, I wouldn't have even picked up this game if it wasn't for a quick look on giant bomb. It's not great but it's very enjoyable, there's a lot of influences on show here. M… Read more

You'll BSoD to see it end

Binary Domain doesn’t wear its influences on its sleeve – they’re welded there. The lack of an active reload is frankly astonishing, all things considered. However, forgiving the abundance of chest hi… Read more

Great story, fun shooting

Binary Domain is a fun game that can be enjoyed for both its story and gameplay. The shooting in the game is extremely satisfying, as the player gets the feeling that bullets actually have some "weigh… Read more

Simply Fun

In the future there will be robots. This is a fact, we have tons of movies to prove it! We also know that inevitably some of those robots will mimic their creators so closely that they'll become indis… Read more

Japanese Craziness At Its Best

A soldier named Big Bo. A French speaking robot. Robots that look like humans that don’t actually know they are robots. These are a few of the crazy things you can find in Binary Domain. It’s a Japane… Read more

10 Types of Cover-Based Shooter: Binary Domain & Everything Else

Never let it be said that I don't occasionally leave my RPG comfort zone for something a little more faster-paced and visceral. Sega 's Binary Domain is a near-future (2080! Mark your calendars!) thir… Read more

The Terminator meets Blade Runner in one helluva fun ride

Let me be honest here. Binary Domain didn't impress me much at first. Mechanically, it seems like something we've seen many times before: The game is, at its core, a pretty basic Gears of War-style co… Read more

A Japanese documentary on how Americans make action games.

Dan has issues with Robots. From a distance, it’s easy to shrug off Binary Domain as yet another “me to” game that’s simply peddling off the success of Epic’s dominant franchise. Yes, Sega’s answer to… Read more

A great story but a lot of bland shooting

Binary Domain is a surprisingly competent Japanese take on a predominately western genre of game. While I found the story to be well written and engrossing and the characters especially entertaining a… Read more

This game is f*cking awesome!

Love the story its very gripping, and i felt during the combat portions, it was very reminiscent of gears of war and mass effect third person action with squad mechanics. The story had me so hooked th… Read more
