MasonicGamer: With the September to November AAA release schedule just about to get into full swing it’s a good opportunity to talk about some great games that slipped under the radar a while back, especially for gamers that fancy something new but are also on a budget. First up: Binary Domain.
Binary Domain was released in spring of 2012 and is a third person shooter set in a futuristic Tokyo, developed by Yakuza Team and published by Sega.
GF365: "Here are our picks for the ten most underrated third-person shooters that you might not have played before or even known about."
Actually great list TBH I agree with all 10
I hope one day we get some remakes for the following
The saboteur(with a proper remake and quality of life features this game could be great)
Scarface world is yours
Binary domain ( such a great game with great story)
GUN(this needs a remake)
Space marine 40k(such fun time)
Would also like to suggest adding the mercenary series even the 2nd game which is disliked by many is a fun time
I recently finished Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine and found it to be very enjoyable.
The game respected the lore and the gameplay was quite decent.
The color palette was a bit underwhelming (backdrops and setting) and recycled but I think that it deserved better.
Here's hoping for an amazing sequel
Step into a dystopian world full of robots and cyborgs with Binary Domain – the sci-fi shooter game from Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio. Let's revisit this classic!
I personally enjoyed this when I played it. I know it wasnt reviewed well but f em

pretty solid third person shooter played from start to finish, also there is another great third person shooter game from that time and very unique called Inversion.
Inversion was cool. It was made by the same team behind TimeShift, another really cool but flawed shooter.
Developed by Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio, the makers of the Yakuza games, Binary Domain is an extremely underrated cyberpunk third-person shooter. Directed by Toshihiro Nagoshi, the mastermind behind the famous Yakuza series, the game is quite different from his previous works. Nagoshi stated that he wanted to explore the themes of life, more specifically through the use of robots. It’s a cyberpunk-themed game, and the game has interesting views on technology, robots and how society would behave in such a world. There are numerous references to other cyberpunk works and fans of the genre will be pleasantly surprised.
^Agreed
This was such an underrated game. I liked the story and some of the action scenes were really good.
I've always wanted to play this game. Huge fan of Vanquish and a few of my friends have always recommended trying this, too. I think I even have it on steam and PS3 but just never made time :( The backlog struggle is real.
I'm looking at my copy right now. I got rid of a bunch of 360 games years ago but I just couldn't part with this one. It was really something special. I've recommended it to several people over the years and almost all of them have never even heard of it.
It's a shame the headset integration was so poor on the game, would've been a neat feature if it had worked.
Great game. Really enjoyed it along with Spec Ops.
I Like Binary Domain it is an awesome shooter but just needed a little more polish. The One liners are cringe worthy but shooting leg/arms/heads off robots is awesome fun.
I love this game, got it last year for $8.99 PC download. BD is generic as they come but still remained me of 3D Contra done right. Large stereotypical protagonist, and the usual suspects for bad guys.
This game is a total sleeper and well worth checking out. It plays like a crazy mix of Gears of War blended with elements from The Terminator, Blade Runner and I, Robot.
