I'm going to have to pick up Binary Domain. I was interested in it before but the reviews made me lukewarm to it so I kind of let it pass me by. However now I hear quite a few mention how enjoyable the game is so I've gotten interested in it again especially as a cheap pick up.

I liked the game A LOT, but after playing the DLC, I wish they had implemented some of the ideas from the DLC in the MAIN GAME!

If you enjoy the main game at ALL the DLC is more than worth it (and probably pretty cheap by now too)!

I think the two Alan Wake episodes may be the only pieces of DLC I ever bought for a game (not counting all inclusive boxed goty/special etc).  They're quite interesting, though a bit on the short side I think.  In one of them you have to shoot words (or shine your torch on them) to make items appear in the world, which is fun and plays with the whole writer's dream/nightmare idea.  It also kind of hints at a sequel, which may have been more wishful thinking on the part of Remedy, than anything actually planned by Microsoft

The game came with one DLC pack.

Yeah I remember you mentioning that before about the AW dlc Bugs. Sounds like good stuff. I think both Remedy and Microsoft were hoping for more Alan Wake games but sales kind of dashed those hopes and is very likely the reason American Nightmare turned into a pared down downloadable game.

I finished Alan Wake yesterday and I have to wonder... does the DLC solves some of the questions left by the ending?

Okay. I wonder what she screwed up. She is considering replaying the last few hours to see what she can do differently.

Also, she said you tried to chat me while she was on my Steam account. Sorry I missed you Steelio.




Does this mean you both suffer from Aspro moments?!



No, quite the opposite. She is endlessly assiduous with her game play.  We are gaming opposites really, right down to the genres we enjoy.

PS3 All-Stars is looking pretty good btw. Really like some of the stages they're showing off.



Yeah I like everything about it, other than the type of game it is. I bought the Wii SSB just for all the extras/ gaming trivia stuff.  I probably won;t be tenmpted enough to get this Sony one, but it would be cool to fight as Parrappa against Vib Ribbon rabbit or whatever.

After Vader brought up Binary Domain today, I looked it up and discovered it's a game by Sega's "Team Yakuza"!  Wow I can't believe I completely and utterly ignored this game for some reason thinking it was western developed second rate dudebro material.

I put things right and ordered the game immediately!

999 update. I can say without hesistation that this is quite unlike any game I've ever played before.  There could be superficial comparisons to Phoenix Wright, but really this is one of thoe text adventures that are popular in Japan (I'm assuming).

It's amazing how, with so little audio and visual cues, they are able to draw you into the feeling of the scenes, for example, the urgency of your tasks and the child-like emotions of your character.

Yeah, not sure I'd recommend it to many people, it's very different, but I'm enjoying it.

This reminded me... Nintendo recently decided to stop taking credit cards registered in my country.  Apparently they only like a certain kind of money.  So yeah, I can't buy anymore downloadable games for 3DS.  What can you do?  No I'm not going to be running around buying flipping points cards

If you like Nagoshi's Yakuza series emphasis on characters, and are even slightly interested in third-person shooting you should be satisfied. If you would like more Binary Domain impressions from me and foolz, you can listen to Episode 113 of the Press Room or Episode 103 (I think that is Foolz check in).

If you want a bonus code listen to Episode 114. I don't think anyone ever used it.
