Binary Domain is Japan's attempt of reaching out to the Western market with a tactical, cover-based, 3rd-Person Shooter.  Shooters are very popular in the Western market with games such as Gears of War, Halo, and especially Call of Duty.  Upon release, it received mixed reviews both positive and skeptical.  The game is about a futuristic Japan where a group of humans fight off hordes of robots who are trying to be more human while the humans question if they're becoming more like machines.  The scenario sounds familiar and done before, but it does create a nice futuristic look to the environment.  Those that enjoyed the game (both critics and players) thought the story was interesting but a lot of players and critics alike seem to agree that there is a lack of polish in some of the controls and the design to multiplayer.  The game is also praised for its Japanese style boss battles where the enemies are large and the fight is a struggle (compared to a lot of quick-time event fights that Western developed games have in their shooters).  The game looks really interesting and I'm excited that it's coming out for PC (I like using mouse and keyboard for shooters if possible).  Binary Domain is already out on Playstation 3 and Xbox 360.  Binary Domain will release on PC/Steam sometime in April.
