The problem being, somebody didn’t listen and these Hollow Children are not even aware they are robots.

To govern the research and development, the ‘new geneva convention’ was born one of these new laws under the name of Clause 21 banned research into robots that could pass for humans, called “Hollow Children”. Set in the 21st century after a culling of human life from flooding and climate change (Topical), the national powers that be had begun building new cities above the old ones using the ‘flood levels’ as foundation, but with so little of humanity left who was going to build these structures? - More advanced robots became a necessity. Developed by the creators of Yakuza (Ryu Ga Gotoku studio), Binary Domain is a testament to developers who dare to do more than the standard of the genre. It had everything from that cliché Japanese humour, Complex Character mechanics, huge set pieces, good voice acting, R.P.G.

Off the back of the popularity of the high-octane third person shooter Vanquish, SEGA published in the following year a game of a similar tone. Binary Domain is arguably one of my favourite games from the Xbox 360 and PS3 generation.
