Domain name is the shooter genre game that makes you
a shooter to kill all your enemies. It is
a PlayStation 3 Xbox 360 format game that is launched by a gaming company named
as Sega. This game depicts the
technology part as it considers all the motions based on true happenings and
momentum considerations. Binary Domain is a futuristic squad based third person
shooter based in Tokyo in 2080. Your job, and that of your multinational squad,
is to infiltrate the city and find the people behind the making of the highly
illegal Hollow Children; flesh covered robots that not only look human, but who
think they are too. Unfortunately, just about every police/defence automaton is
out to aerate your body with bullets, blades or jagged pieces of themselves, if
they can get their broken bodies close enough to you once you’ve asked them to
say hello to your little friend with the smoking muzzle.
It’s all very sci-fi and eastern in origin, created
by the newly formed Yakuza Studio with Toshihiro Nagoshi (the creator of the
Yakuza games) at the helm. It plays like most third person shooters in recent
years, with a cover system allowing for blind fire, hopping over for a frontal
attack, or dashing for another-less bullet gouged-hiding place. One of the
things that set it apart from the rest in the genre is the physical damage done
to enemies. As you spray them with hot lead they disintegrate in front of you,
showing off their metal framework and inner workings and at the same time
giving you nicely lit energy sources to aim for.
Binary
Domain takes place in 2080, years after environmentalists worldwide have wept
bitter tears following the melting of the polar ice caps. What followed was
pandemonium. The oceans rose, cities floods, dogs and cats were living
together. End of the world stuff. But once the waters subsided, the rebuilding
began. The population was nowhere near what it was, so many nations turned to
robotic labor to help take the jobs that humans couldn’t. That bred a new
robotic culture around the world. The game also does a great job of mixing in some
variety, including a tense chase through a tunnel, a mech-like attack, and
dodging falling debris, just to name a few. Every time you think you have seen
all the game has to offer, it throws something completely new at you.
When
the curtain drops on Binary Domain, you’re left with the sense that, while
accomplished, this game is largely a rote exercise in genre. It adequately, but
not outstandingly, mimics the nuts and bolts of the western cover shooter,
while bringing little new of worth to the table. In an ironic – or perhaps
knowing – parallel to its subject matter, Binary Domain marks the moment that a
Japanese team has managed to mechanically clone its competition. But, as with
any clone, it’s ended up feeling a little soulless. So get your copy of this
technical shooting game and kill all those dirty guys all around you.
