Right now Im working my way through the campaign on single player. After I beat it I plan on heading online to do the other character classes. Anyone else got this awesome game and want to play sometime in the near future?

If your not familiar with Borderlands its essentially the game Fallout 3 should have been. Its wild over the top zany Role Playing Shooter fun. The humor is great, and the weapon combos are out of this world. There are 500 thousand unique weapons in the game, those all have parts that are interchangeable, so you quite literally have a billion unique weapon possibilities. No 2 weapons dropped or found in this game are the same, and the same goes if your replaying it, you'll find something different every single time.

The graphics are amazing, it looks like it was ripped straight out of a comic book. And the character classes are actually unique and different from each other however they have been done before. You have your Sniper, Soldier, Siren, and Bruiser. Each with their own unique ability.

Heres the trailer for it:

I got my eye on this but I don't want to pay full price for it. I'll probably wait for Steam to have their Christmas sale again and hope that this game, and L4D2, drops in price.

A neat idea, but it still looks like it suffers from Powersuit Warrior: Everything is Dirt Brown syndrome. snore

I'm definatly interested...but... I'm in the process of moving to a new place and have allot of expenses from that. If I can find it for a good price I'll definatly grab it and upgrade my silver to gold.

I don't have time to play WoW much anymore, so I can't get/stay in a guild. So I end up just grinding alone, getting PUG's. I hate that, I like WoW for the social aspect. I was thinking of playing XB Live again but can't find a decent social game. This might fit that.

My live ID is "KingMagni" please feel free to add me.

This. I'm ordering a new computer by the end of the month for gaming. Somebody make sure to revive this topic when a sale hits on Steam.

This will be one of my first purchases when I finally spring for a 360. Maybe in a year...

As a huge Diablo II fan I soooo want this game. Alas, not willing to fork over $60 bucks at the moment.

So for me to play this on my 360 it would need to be...on sale

For me to play this on my PC it would need to be...on sale as well.

So yeah, if anyone here finds a deal..post away! I'm subscribing to this thread

Cool stuff Josh, Im right behind you, my Hunter is 23. Only gripe right now is theres not many chances to snipe. Maybe that will come about in co-op.

Sniping is certainly doable, but hell, my sniper rifle skill is so high, I pretty much use it like a handgun now.

Hate to disagree with you, MrCranky, but this is the update to Diablo. You got things confused.

Well what the heck is Diablo 3 an update to?? I'm kind of interested in picking up Torchlight, but first I want to play Titan Quest (the update to Diablo).

(Oh yeah, and I might get back into Guild Wars. You might have heard of it; it's the update to Diablo.)

The only problem I have with this game is that it's single player only. However, there are plans to make it a MMO

It's cheap too...20 bucks on Steam I think? But looks like Mythos somewhat (which was also an update to Diablo 2).

I think I'll just wait for D3. Yum. Muahaha. sauron

There have been many updates and clones of Diablo, but this is the first one that is actually any good.

Also worth noting that Steam was recently selling Torchlight for 5 bucks, at which point I bought it. It's not bad, but it's no Borderlands, and the lack of multiplayer makes the 5 dollar price point just about right.

I picked up Torchlight last weekend when it was $5. Awesome game for a SP only. Really have enjoyed it.

I think I'll wait on Borderlands to hit the low price point for the 360. Got a friend or 2 that wants it as well and since we all have 360's it will be funner to play there I think.

As it is, got too much to play on my PC as it is...Torchlight, DDO, King's Bounty, etc.

Calling all BGG Borderlanders...

Got it with a friend for $30 + free shipping from Gamestop. Played till about 130 AM. Game is a total frag fest and a blast with other people. Much more fun than solo.

Highly recommended (I got it on the 360)

I've started playing it last week, quite addictive.

Very fun solo with the hunter specialized in sniping. Also fun online with a trigger-happy Siren. The difference in classes is very interesting.
