Simple Awesome
- Pros: A great game. I usually don't play RPG's (the last one was FF8!) and I'm not sure I would label it as such. The sheer number of weapons is available is awesome. I have no idea how far along I am but am already looking forward to replaying through as one of the other character classes.
- Cons: No timer to see how long you played..... that might actually be a good thing. The load times were a little long when it first came out but the first patch cut those down alot. Only problem is now when you come to a new section you may see some non-detailed objects which smooth out as they get drawn in.
- Other Thoughts: Really the loading and draw rates should have been caught before it was released to production. I was actually OK with the old longer loads and not running around for a few seconds (usually less than 15) before everything is drwn in. I'm sure a patch is in the works along with DLC!
I hate RPGs...but...
- Pros: Top notch graphics...good storyline...excellent co-op and online play
- Cons: none
- Other Thoughts: I hate RPGs. I mean, I really hate them. Name any RPG and I'll just shake my head. but the minute I saw the preview and online videos for this game---I just had to have it. First-person shooter RPG with the most wicked gaphics. Oh man, I am in heaven. This game is going to keep me entertained for some time to come. I've only had the game for a day, and I haven't been able to walk away.
Can I get a 6th egg please...
- Pros: Borderlands is the Diablo of FPS games. Everything they set out to do they nailed perfectly.
-Game looks great
-Co-op story is super fun and well done
-Loot, loot and more loot
-Character development
-The shield / health system works well
- Cons: You will dream about it while you're asleep.
- Other Thoughts: I'm about half way through Borderlands (Co-op) and already looking forward to replaying on a harder difficulty or as a different class. The game is awesome but it leaves you wanting more. DLC could turn this into something truely phenominal.
Also, I agree with the other reviewer; If you like WoW and also like FPS games, you'll enjoy Borderlands.
