I’m usually willing to overlook the faults of these types of stories if there’s enough charm behind it, but the plot behind Binary Domain hasn’t won me over in that way. I’m not sure if its craziness is a symptom of elements being lost in translation, or if the game is genuinely insane, but it’s unmistakably Japanese.
Everything is very over the top to the point of ridiculousness.
I’m about 40% of the way through the game, and the story is…very Japanese. You, as a member of the Rust Crew, are responsible for apprehending the mastermind behind these human-like robots before they do terrible things to mankind. Someone in Japan is making robots that are indistinguishable from humans, which is in direct violation of the New Geneva Convention. Is it the Japanese Hamburger I was looking for?īinary Domain takes place in a post-apocalyptic 2080 AD. Though the game isn’t very old, it didn’t take long for it to drop to that price in my area. Because I was looking for something to scratch my Vanquish itch, I had this on my list of games to pick up when it hit $20. Was it a bad game? Not from what I’ve read from the reviews, and general discussion on the internet. As Sega’s most recent boxed release, it’s failure at retail contributed to substantial worldwide layoffs and a major restructuring of its publishing strategy. Though you’ve probably never heard of it, Binary Domain was a landmark title for Sega (in a bad way).
