Impressions on Binary Domain

The third-person action shooter market is pretty crowded these days.  There are plenty of options for those that want to play burly men who shoot things in the face and move between conveniently placed chest high walls.  When the folks at Sega announced that the mind behind the Yakuza series, Toshihiro Nagoshi, was making a third-person shooter, my reaction was along the lines of "...kay."  I love the Yakuza series, but another military shooter just wasn't something I cared about.  Binary Domain releases on 28 February, which was another reason to skip it.  It falls right between Syndicate and Mass Effect 3.  So, I skipped over reading more about the title and promptly forgot about it.
