Summary
Game Description
Borderlands by 2K Games combines FPS action with player customization and vehicular combat. The game features a content generation system allowing for near-endless variety in weapons, item drops, and character customization. Borderlands allows for multiple players to share the same game experience simultaneously online in co-op gameplay. Players can freely join or leave each other's games at anytime, or choose to play in the full single-player mode. These features, along with a rich and deep fiction that touches upon the mysteries buried beneath the surface of a danger-filled planet, combine to form an experience that challenges the conventions of modern shooters.

Borderlands is a great combo of fps and rpgs
Borderlands has yet to let me down, i am a level 20 hunter and have had 2 boss battles, if you are into first person shooters you will love this peace of work. the multiplayer isnt the best but is very fun to do with your friends, but caution you will get better loot with more people but the enemies will also get stronger. it is no rumer when people say the guns are completely random every once and a while you will come across a gun that looks the same but if you check the stats they are in no way alike, i have only gone over alittle of why this is a great game, but take my word for it, it is great and its like the fallout 3 with vehicles and multiplayer you never had.( look out by the end if the year there will be DLC for borderlands called Dr. Ned's Zombie Island)

Borderlands
this is the newest gearbox game. it is a crossover of a RPG, and a FPS. it is one of the best multiplayer game out there. there is a single player mode, but thats not much fun. the single player,and multiplayer modes fallow the same story with no differences. you can have up to 4 players in a multiplayer game. the number of people in your game affect how strong you enemy's are, and how strong the items they drop are. you can pick from one of 4 different character classes. each one having there own unique ability. the 4 class types are Berserker, Siren, Hunter, and Soldier. there isn't much customization of your character.all you can do is edit there name,and colors. you should rent this first before buying it, because you might not like it. if you like it you should buying.

Fantastic
So i had no clue what borderlands was, then i was informed it was a rpg/fps with loads of guns and content. I wasnt fully sold but wow does this game hook you by the nostril and make you scream for more. Fantastic new of visuals. The animations for all guns are great. The challenge is always there from the very beginning throughout the entire game as far as i've played. It's highly enjoyable from blasting through 15 enemies at once to strategically picking of bandits one by one with your sniper rifle. Everything floats together perfectly. Controls are spot on and and did i say the graphic was fantastic yet. The comic book really gives you pleasure when you blow the head of an enemy that's shootin and tootin towards your direction. Either way nothing has kept me from enjoying this game. Multiplayer and Single player are spot on and the pure enjoyment of leveling up and getting your next setup is plain addictive. I dont buy games often i usually rent but this is a keeper. GO out and GET IT.

to cheap new games!
2 days a go, I was looking on my xbox 360 and I was looking at whats hot, and I saw that borderlands is only 40 BUCKS! compared to ODST which is about 70 to 60 bucks. either its a really @#5&* game like borderlands, but I canot wait to play assasins creed 2 because borderlands is a boring game thats why it cheap and sucks!
