Thrilling encounters with highly intelligent robotic enemies require you to think tactically, make challenging, real-time moral decisions and build up trust with your team mates in order to guide your squad to safety and success. Set in 2080, the story starts when Dan Marshall and his squad are sent to bring the robotic community under control as they begin to infiltrate society and slowly take over undetected, leaving humans redundant in their wake. It's a shame that the game flows so badly - the artificial intelligence of your teammates just isn't acceptable for a squad based game in 2012.īuried here is a good game that plays like it has been released far too soon.About This Game THE MACHINE AGE HAS BEGUN in this immersive and atmospheric squad-based shooter in which you need to regain control of a futuristic Tokyo from an emerging robotic threat. The environment and robots look great - boss robots are especially impressive. If you have a microphone, there are voice commands, but this doesn't work great and feels like a gimmick. Unlike in Mass Effect 3, where a teammate will move if you want their cover, in Binary Domain you will just have to go somewhere else. Their speach, while well acted, is often nonsensical, and they often get in your line of sight. Your teammates are what really spoil Binary Domain. Shoot a robot's legs and it will drag itself toward you, for example. When you're fighting a wave of oncoming robots, it can be easy to forget the flaws of the game, as the shooting is good, and the enemies react well to being shot. Binary Domain has a satisfying arcade feel to it, and the movement of your character and the weaponry is excellent.
