When he gets mixed up in the intrigue revolving around the Terbon colony later in the game, his primary motive isn't helping the colonists, but rather tracking down his old partner Pointer (who's working as TheHeavy for the bad guys) and getting his revenge for Pointer's betrayal at the beginning of the game.

''Chrome'' is a 2003 sci-fi FirstPersonShooter for the PC developed by Techland, best known for the ''CallOfJuarez'' and ''DeadIsland'' series of video games. It was the first major release by Techland, and the Chrome engine has been used in all of their major games since then. A prequel, ''Chrome: Specops'' was released in 2005.
The game focuses on the adventures of Bolt Logan (voiced by Jon St. John, best known as the voice of DukeNukem), a space bounty hunter in the distant future. Partnering with a drifter named Carrie after his old partner Pointer betrays him, Logan embarks on a series of bounty missions in a distant sector of colonized space, eventually being caught up in a power struggle between the Zetrox and Coretech Mega-Corporations over the valuable resource Chrome, a substance that makes terraforming human-habitable planets possible. The prequel, ''Chrome: Specops'' takes place during Logan's past as a member of the SpaceMarine special forces.
