Binary Domain Demo Impressions (Goozernation)

The team behind Yakuza is giving gamers a unique experience with Binary Domain. Think of the game as squad based game play meats Gears of War with robots. Binary Domain has enough action to make Vanquish jealous. There is also support for voice commands. Goozernation has the full details on why gamers should pick up this game come the end of February.

Demo was decent, don't like the fact that the game is separated into missions though. like once you finish a mission that "mission accomplished" message pops up & you move on to the next level. Feels outdated.

dirthurts4876d ago

I totally agree. I mean really? Who does that any more?

Flewid6384875d ago

The entire Devil May Cry series does. Bayonetta was split into Missions as well. Batman Arkham City and Arkham Asylum have text popping up that missions are complete.

Mass Effect is also mission based. Etc etc, so on and so on....

@CDzNutts

You didn't get my point. I'd rather get a cinematic & keep going from where I am (arkham city & Mass effect for example) then get a "Mission Accomplished" followed by a black screen & move on to another level... I just happen to hate that shit.

kube004875d ago

So you want it more streamlined.

001854874d ago

Yes, like most games. It just doesn't feel right in BD.

Kyosuke_Sanada4874d ago (Edited 4874d ago )

This game has so much potential in my eyes. They just need to the finishing touches on the voice command recognition. Lots of time I don't even talk and random words would pop up which usually screws the squad over or lead to very hilarious conversations.......

Rachel: There's a sniper!
Dan: F^7%$@k!
Rachel: We'll take care of that later!

Don't forget they've put a lot of these on gamepass and ps plus so you can add that money to it. Good to see Sega going strong

Happy for sega ! I was expecting some kind of showing of their newer games at game fest but maybe they’re keeling it for TGS? Crazy taxi and jet set needs a trailer or something soon !!!

Atlus coming in strong for Sega thankfully

CrimsonWing6943d ago

What about the Yakuza series and Sonic?

_Decadent_Descent42d ago

I like what's on their legacy IP list, but there are still many more franchises they could revive. Shining Force and Chakan come to mind.

The Dreamcast was the biggest gamble and way ahead of its time.

OtterX44d ago

I wish we lived in the Alternate Timeline where Sega was still a dominant force in the console space and it hadn't been Microsoft.

Deeeeznuuuts43d ago

I've always said this, would much prefer SEGA, such a shame.

blacktiger42d ago

this was all part of the plan to give Microsoft the spot

chicken_in_the_corn42d ago

Would be interesting to see what they would do for a modern console.

Saturn was a fantastic piece of kit... they just went a little too ambitious with its dual CPU setup. which turned a lot of developers off (at the time). The homebrew community have done some amazing work many years later, thanks to multichip experience. It is still the best platform for arcade fighters and shmups of all time. Dreamcast is a close 2nd though.

Profchaos43d ago

Yeah it was a interesting decision especially when looking at how dual CPU is considered a root cause of why the Jaguar was a failure.

Also the hardware rendered four sided polygons where the standard was three if they kept with triangle polygons I feel the systems development would have been easier to work with and we would have seen more third party ports in the west.

I think it was a victim of its time more than anything it saw huge success in Japan but the leadership and internal turmoil in the west meant games were not getting localised along with a focus on arcade like games were the PlayStation and later the N64 were pushing more in depth experiences over coin munching high score driven games.

Knightofelemia44d ago

I still enjoy my Saturn it was the first console I mowed lawns for and saved up for to purchase. I went so far as to purchase a used Saturn to run off an SD card. I even have a second Dreamcast modded to run off an SD card as well.
