I love you.

The shooting looks ok but this game looks terrible. Big Bo literally narrates *EVERY* *SINGLE* *THING* that happens. Even the really fucking obvious stuff like walking into a dead end.

It's the heavy dialog / exposition crap that has plagued so many Japanese games for the longest time. You know, we're playing a video game, there are ways to express ideas to the player without having a shitty voice actor narrate every single thing that happens on the screen. That's one of the reasons a lot of people hated FF13.

Also, did you see all those popup dialogs? THERE'S SO MUCH TEXT, WHY?!?

This is one of my favorite quicklooks in a while.

... Intentionally or not, this has sold another copy of Binary Domain following several days worth of deliberation. Dammit.

Everyone needs a Big Bo to identify potential control panels placed within rooms. Everyone.

That was SwEEEEEEEEt.

Protip: voice recognition works fine if you aren't a douche about it!

Just finished this a few minutes ago on Survivor, and boy did I enjoy it. Has a lot of bosses/mini-bosses, but man are they satisfying.

Man, I wanted to see the end of that cutscene, damn it!

Godammn, Big Boteng. I be feeling them skillz. XD

THAT WAS SWEEEEET

Dude the Dick Tracy reference killed me lol

Looking forward to playing this.

#YearOfTheBo

Definitely going to have to check this game out when it's $5~10.

What if I told you...

I just wrapped up Binary Domain tonight. Big Bo is my bro, and this game is one of the Secret Best Games of 2012.

You know it.

I finally got around to playing this. it's amazing.

I love you, Big BO!

Just picked this up on the cheap. What a pleasant surprise this game turned out to be, much better than expected.

I must have watched this video 5 times now. Every time, I hear something good about Binary Domain, and forgetting, come here to look into it.

And every time, i'm reminded of big bo. Sweet.

Happy 2 year anniversary of your new digs Giant Bomb! Also dat screen capture.

BiiiiiIIIIIIiiiiiig BoooooOOOOoo!?!?

Got this for my Ps3 last week for cheap. Definitely one of the games that no one played. I would like to see a sequel to this. Everything in this game was just awesome, not too serious and some funny moments.

Also this quicklook is god damn legendary.

BIG BO. I'm bringin it back.

Big Bo 2018

Happy 10 GB

This is literally Cyber Gears of War. The roadie run with a camera pan, the cover system, the active? reload system, just everything about it.

Classic

The year is 2020, and Big Bo continues to be SWEEEEEET

Still one of the best!

I loved this QL and genuinely enjoyed this game, a fun romp with some neat ideas.

I can’t believe it’s already another Big Bo Day! Happy Binaraversary!

BO-endsday, BO-arch 16th, in the year of our BO, 202-BO. Binary Domain is 10 years old and to celebrate, I’m gonna marry a robot.

How am I the only one celebrating Big Bo day three years in a row? Folks, play Binary Domain, it's honestly a good game. It's not a great game, but it's worth $5 on a steam sale.
